The Neibolt House from IT Is Now an Attraction in Los Angeles
If you’ve read Stephen King’s IT, then you know just how important of a location the Neibolt house is. It’s where several scenes in the story take place, and it acts as a pivotal location.
Now, people in Los Angeles (and those willing to travel) can experience the house for themselves as it’s become a haunted house experience called The IT Experience: Neibolt House, located at Hollywood Blvd. and Vine Street.
Here’s the official description: The house will be open to the public daily August 14th through September 10th from 1pm to 11pm. Admission is free. Those who are 18 and over are welcome (at their own risk) to step inside the two-story replica of “where IT lives.” Guests will be guided by “Georgie” through the 5,000-square-foot house and will venture room by room through immersive film-inspired scenes complete with authentic set props. “Losers’ Club” groups of 7 will journey through a 20-minute experience encountering pneumatic surprises, live actors, animatronic beings, and state-of-the-art lighting, audio, and video.
If you want to reserve tickets for your own experience, you can do so right here.
