Trauma Towers, formerly The Haunted Hotel, was a themed funhouse, haunted attraction based at Pleasure Beach Resort in the North of the United Kingdom.^[1]

The attraction opened in 1980 as a walk-through, themed as a derelict hotel taking visitors through several haunted rooms. The outside of the hotel was painted blue and ramshackle with animations behind windows. In 1999, the attraction was renamed Trauma Towers and joined with the neighboring Tagada flat ride, which became the 'Baronial Dining Hall' and served as a finale.

The area outside Trauma Towers included gargoyles, ornate stone benches and a fountain with blood-red water. This area was later taken over by the dancing fountains show.

In 2009, the attraction was closed and left standing but not operating. One of the reasons for its discontinuation was purportedly due to the building becoming damp from the new adjacent Dancing Water Show. Some of the scenes were reused in the Ghost Train ride. The old entrance was re-used as a photographic portrait studio after the closure. In January 2018, the entire building was demolished at the same time as the Wild Mouse roller coaster, to make way for "future developments".
