Terror Vault returns to the historic San Francisco Mint this October with its most ambitious chapter yet: SLASHED, a brutal new immersive horror experience and a blood-soaked love letter to the outrageous slasher films of the 1980s, taking over the San Francisco Mint (88 5th St.) beginning Thursday, October 1 and running through Sunday, November 1, 2026.

Inspired by the era of masked killers, final girls, and wildly inventive death scenes, SLASHED drops guests into the real-time investigation of the infamous Shellville murders. When Petra Sterling, host of the hit true-crime podcast Hellville, mysteriously disappears while researching a new wave of killings tied to the long-abandoned Fear Clinic, her assistant Tina recruits a group of brave volunteers to help finish the investigation. Armed with Petra’s clues, guests must venture into the sealed town of Shellville, confront the supernatural killer Darren Grieves, and recover the missing components of the mysterious Fear Engine before the murders spread beyond the town’s borders. Along the way they’ll encounter the restless victims of Darren’s original killing spree, survive terrifying set pieces inspired by classic 80s slashers, and decide just how much they’re willing to risk to stop the nightmare. In Hellville, fear feeds the killer… and this time, you’re in the story.
