Haunted Factory Experience at J.C. Newman Cigar Company

This Halloween season, step into the eerie world of the J.C. Newman Cigar Company, where history and horror collide in an unforgettable Haunted House experience. On October 18th and 19th, we are unlocking a part of the factory that has been sealed for decades—the mysterious basement where something terrible once happened.

In the heart of Tampa’s historic Ybor City, the J.C. Newman Cigar Factory stands as a testament to over a century of craftsmanship. But beneath the bustling three floors where millions of cigars are rolled and thousands of visitors walk, lies a secret—one that has been buried for generations.

Years ago, an unspeakable event occurred in the factory’s basement. The Newmans, in their desperation to protect the factory and its workers, sealed it off, never to return. Since then, the factory has thrived, yet whispers of what lurks below still haunt those who dare to listen.

Now, for a limited time, the doors to the basement will creak open once more. Dare to descend and face the darkness that has been hidden for so long. What evil awaits beneath the surface? Find out—if you’re brave enough.
