Terror Vault returns to the San Francisco Mint for its 2026 production, SLASHED: Return to Hellville, opening October 1 and running through Halloween. The story picks up 37 years after the fictional Hellville massacre, when true-crime podcaster Petra Sterling vanishes while digging into new murders tied to the town’s “Fear Clinic.” Guests aren’t just spectators — recruited as volunteers by Petra’s assistant Tina, they’re sent through the sealed town of Shellville to track down the masked killer Darren Grieves and recover the pieces of a mysterious “Fear Engine” before he kills again. The walkthrough packs in abandoned schools, haunted campgrounds, blood-soaked fraternity houses, and a forgotten video store, all rendered in loving, analog-accurate 1980s slasher detail — right down to the visitor choices that change how the investigation plays out.
Because SLASHED hasn’t opened for the season yet, this lineup is built from Terror Vault’s own announced theme rather than a lived walkthrough — one film for every corner of Shellville the marketing has revealed so far.
Streaming availability was verified September 1, 2026, and can change without notice
1. Prom Night (1980) — for the Abandoned School
Shellville’s abandoned school is exactly the kind of place Prom Night built its reputation on — a decade-old tragedy, a killer who never got caught, and a graduating class about to find out the past didn’t stay buried. Jamie Lee Curtis anchors it, but the real draw is watching a school hallway turn into a crime scene in real time.

2. Friday the 13th (1980) — for the Haunted Campground
No haunted campground pairing beats the original. Friday the 13th set the template Shellville’s own counselors and campers are clearly built from — a killer with a grudge, a body of water with a bad history, and camp staff who really should have read the local news before taking the job.

3. The House on Sorority Row (1982) — for the Blood-Soaked Fraternity House
Swap the sorority for a fraternity and the setup still holds: a prank gone fatally wrong, a house full of people trying to keep a secret, and a killer working through the guest list one by one. The House on Sorority Row is the genre’s cleanest “cover-up comes home to roost” slasher, and Shellville’s fraternity house looks built from the same blueprint.

4. The Video Dead (1987) — for Action Video Shellville
Terror Vault’s own featured photo for SLASHED is set inside “Action Video Shellville,” a forgotten VHS rental shop, which makes The Video Dead the obvious pull. A cursed television set unleashes undead killers straight out of a haunted broadcast — proof that the analog-horror aesthetic this haunt is chasing has been around since the format itself.

5. My Bloody Valentine (1981) — for Darren Grieves
Shellville’s masked killer Darren Grieves fits the mold My Bloody Valentine‘s Harry Warden defined — a working-class town, a mining disaster nobody wants to talk about, and a masked figure making sure everyone remembers exactly why. It’s the Canadian slasher classic that treats blue-collar dread as seriously as the kills themselves.

6. The Fog (1980) — for the 37-Year Anniversary
SLASHED’s entire premise turns on a town paying for a sin buried decades earlier, which is precisely John Carpenter’s setup in The Fog — a coastal community’s centennial anniversary interrupted by the vengeful dead the town founders wronged. Shellville’s 37-years-later timeline is a shorter fuse on the same idea: anniversaries are when the past collects.

7. Dr. Giggles (1992) — for the Fear Clinic
The mysterious “Fear Clinic” at the center of SLASHED’s investigation practically demands a pairing with Dr. Giggles — a killer surgeon armed with medical instruments and a bedside manner nobody should trust. It’s schlocky in exactly the way this haunt’s premise seems to be embracing on purpose.

8. Carnival of Souls (1962) — for the Wainwright Family Carnival
Terror Vault’s VIP pre-show is a full Wainwright Family Carnival, complete with midway games and a ringmaster named Pinwheel — and no film pairs with a carnival that feels subtly, permanently wrong better than Carnival of Souls. It’s a low-budget, black-and-white nightmare about a woman drawn back to an abandoned pavilion by something she can’t quite name, and it’s still unnerving more than six decades later.

9. Would You Rather (2013) — for the Interactive Investigation
SLASHED breaks from the standard walkthrough by making guests’ choices actually matter to the outcome, which is the exact premise Would You Rather turns into a full film — a group of desperate strangers forced to make escalating decisions with real consequences at a sadist’s dinner party. It’s the sharpest “your choices are the horror” film the genre has produced.

10. Sleepaway Camp (1983) — for Tiff
Shellville’s restless victim Tiff, a camp counselor from Darren Grieves’ original killing spree, points straight at Sleepaway Camp — the slasher most famous for the gut-punch of an ending, but just as memorable for how it handles a summer camp full of people who never see the real threat coming. It’s the right closing note for a haunt built on twists you don’t see until they’re standing in front of you.

Ten films, ten pieces of the Fear Engine, one town that never should have reopened. SLASHED: Return to Hellville runs at Terror Vault inside the San Francisco Mint from October 1 through Halloween — work through this list before you volunteer to go looking for Petra Sterling yourself.
