An immersive theatrical experience

We started Hilgers Haunted Nights with the goal of providing a unique, immersive, spooky and theatrical experience during the Halloween season.  Austin magicians will guide you through one of Austin's oldest and most haunted homes, just steps away from the Capitol

A nonprofit fundraiser

Hilgers Haunted Nights is an annual fundraiser for the Texas Magic Center, a nonprofit whose mission is to preserve and advance the art of magic in Texas, and the Austin Bar Foundation, a nonprofit whose mission is to expand legal-related charitable and educational programs  in Central Texas.  Both are 501(c)(3) charities, meaning donations are tax deductible to the fullest extent allowed by law.

A Victorian seance

This year's Hilgers Haunted Nights culminates in a Victorian seance, like those popular in the late 1800's and central to the American spiritualism movement.  If you are claustrophobic, afraid of the dark, or easily scared, this is not the experience for you.  If it sounds awesome, get your tickets now!
