The 15 Best Haunted Houses in New Mexico for 2026
·
New Mexico runs deep with haunts every October — from big-name pro attractions to the home haunts neighbors line up for. We pulled every haunt on FrightMaps in Albuquerque, Rio Rancho, Anthony and beyond and ranked the 15 worth planning your night around. Each one below links straight to each listing's photos, details and directions.
How we picked
Every haunt here is a live FrightMaps listing in New Mexico. We order by fan likes on FrightMaps, then by how much the listing says, then by whether it has a cover photo. Pro status and paid placement never affect the order. Ranks were locked when this list was published and do not move for the rest of the season — a haunt that leaves FrightMaps leaves an empty slot rather than shifting the numbers. The 2027 list rebuilds from scratch, so posting dates and photos now is how you move up.
