SAN FRANCISCO — Following multiple sold-out seasons and national recognition, the award-winning 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. “There’s something deeply satisfying about a great slasher movie—they’re outrageous, terrifying, funny, and endlessly inventive,” said Terror Vault co-founder Joshua Grannell (aka Peaches Christ). “With SLASHED, we’ve created our own twisted valentine to the gloriously over-the-top horror films of the 1980s, where audiences don’t just watch the nightmare unfold—they become part of it. “The slasher films of the 1980s had such a distinct visual language, and we wanted audiences to feel like they’ve stepped right into one of those movies,” adds Terror Vault co-founder David Flower. “From the costumes and props to the set design, music, and even the smallest details, we’ve packed SLASHED with loving nods to that era.
