What we know so far is the dome will be approximately 2,000 square foot with about 60 …

The attraction opened in August of 2017 and for the $30 entrance fee the attraction was a mix of many things including having a escape room, maze and interactive video game as well as part haunted house to scare you. The attraction would usually take about 20 minutes to go through and maybe the lack of peoples knowledge to what the attraction was didn’t help it; From the outside the storefront looked …

Lady Gaga’s hit 2009 song “Bad Romance” has been added to the Bellagio Fountain Show so it will now be included in the song rotation.

The cement stars were removed in several places on the …
