Cutting Edge was originally a 235,000-square-foot meat-packing plant built in 1908. It is also situated in a part of town historically dubbed "hell's half acre", where infamous wild-west gangsters such as Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Doc Holiday, and Jesse James made history. For several years it was the longest recorded walk-through space of any haunted house, taking 55 minutes to complete – and featured in the Guinness book of world records.
