"TERRORDOME" - Pittsburgh"TERRODOME" was a 30 minute walk through haunted attraction created by Robert Short and Dirk Hagen for the Pittsburgh Hockey Association and installed beneath the Pittsburgh Penguin's sports area dome in downtown Pittsburgh. With a cast of 50 actors, audiences were treated to a terrifying haunted excavation discovered deep below the sports arena. This was the first haunt to be presented inside a sports area and would pave the way for similar attractions in places like Madison Square Gardens in the heart of New York city.
