R.L. Stine's Haunted Lighthouse is a short 4-D motion picture from 2003 that debuted at multiple United States amusement parks, including SeaWorld San Diego and SeaWorld San Antonio. Created through a collaboration between Busch Entertainment Corporation and Lookout Entertainment, it holds the distinction of being the inaugural 3-D feature at Busch Gardens Tampa Bay.

Captured in 3D utilizing a 5 perforation/70mm format, the film integrated sensory effects such as bursts of water and air, seats fitted with buzzers, remote audio devices, and additional physical enhancements. The conclusion features water cannons positioned below the screen that drench spectators.
