About Us

Amy Broadnax is more than a founder—she’s a force.

A survivor of systemic injustice and generational hardship, Amy transformed her pain into purpose. She negotiated surrenders between fugitives and U.S. Marshals, rescued human trafficking victims, and exposed the abuse of for-profit juvenile prisons helping to shut down Wackenhut Private Prisons. All before founding one of the most innovative cultural projects of our time.

As the visionary behind Haunted Texas and Haunted History Parks Global, Amy is building a multi-billion-dollar entertainment and tourism ecosystem that fuses immersive storytelling, real history, sustainability, and AI to educate, heal, and inspire. Her mission: to heal hearts and minds through education, love, and laughter.

“History isn’t meant to be told—it’s meant to be FELT. That’s why I built Haunted Texas. That’s why I fight for justice. That’s why I don’t wait for permission—I create the path forward.”

Amy is proof that the future belongs to those who dare to rewrite the past.

Amy Broadnax created Haunted Texas Theme Park & USA History Preservation Project out of survival, heartbreak, resilience—and the relentless belief that our real stories deserve to be told.

Here’s the heart of why Amy created Haunted Texas:

After surviving betrayal, homelessness, wrongful arrests, and abuse, Amy realized that the scariest stories aren’t ghost tales—they’re the real ones people refuse to talk about. Haunted Texas was born from the idea that the truth itself is worth preserving—especially the parts that have been hidden, erased, or distorted.

As a single mom, white woman with Black children, and a founder who’s been overlooked, ghosted, and gaslit in startup spaces, Amy built Haunted Texas not just as a theme park—but as a movement.

• Justice through immersive storytelling
  → Reclaiming Black, Indigenous, and untold American histories
• Economic empowerment
  → $834M+ in Year 1 revenue projected; 1,600+ jobs; 100 Black-owned vendor slots
• Innovation with impact
  → AI-powered, zero-staff operations, AR/VR haunts, Tesla energy grids
• Healing through community
  → Events, safe housing, and opportunities for women and survivors

Amy’s lived through every “no.” She’s lost nearly everything—twice. And yet, instead of giving up, she used her pain as power and built a $2.72B startup vision from shelter WiFi, AI tools, and pure heart.

“Haunted Texas is what happens when a founder takes the ghosts of her past and builds them into something that can’t be ignored.” – Amy Broadnax
 

“I didn’t create Haunted Texas to scare people—I created it to wake them up. This isn’t a haunted house. This is a haunted country. And it’s time we own that truth and build something better.”
