The only reason I didn't give this a 5 was because of the lines. I would like to point out to everyone reading these reviews is that this was a hugely anticipated re-opening of a haunted house that operated years ago AND they did a LOT of advertising. AND we went on opening weekend. So yeah, the lines were long. We arrived at 7 and didn't get out of there until probably 9:30 (shuttle bus, food at the end and all). The theatrics were great. I am a huge fan of haunted houses and probably a little jaded. - but they got me sever... read more

Very unorganized parking situation. Paid more for speedy pass, yet general admission line got through faster. Lines upon lines just to get into the haunted house. LOTS of waiting. As for the haunted house...props were awesome, but it was NOT scary. Overall, understaffed and unprepared.

Lines they have lines and long ones at that. A line to get on the bus, a line to get a ticket, a line to go through, a line to get into the house, and a line to get back on the bus and head back. They have to many animatronics and dont use actors well. I never got scared because we were behind another group poor acting was dissapointed. The slide at the end was to hyped up is a carnival slide and i was lame wich led you to a game of find the key and you get a free ticket. The organization to get in and through the huanted ho... read more

There is enough reviews on this place, all of which is true depending on when they got to the parking lot. I'll provide tips � #1 Save your money done buy fast pass. You are in the same wait line as everyone to get on bus. Once you arrive to get your tickets the fast pass lane was 3x longer than the regular admission. #2 Dress warm! I wore a hoodie and jeans and wish I wore something thicker. Gloves,hat, and all terrain shoes. You will walk in gravel, dirt, and several uneven floors before getting to the house plus a lot of ... read more

Obviously, the line was the worst part. I think if they had some characters during the wait for the cemetery it would have been better. But any haunted house you go to, there's a long wait. You don't get pushed through the haunted house in one big cluster, so that's why there's a long wait. But the house and choreography was great! The cemetery could have used some more characters. But they did a fantastic job on the house! I just hope the story is different next year so I can go again!

I didn't even get a chance to experience it. This review is more about how this place conducts themselves as a business. When we got to the parking area at 8:30 we waited on the shuttle for an hour and a half. I expected this. Once we finally got on the bus and arrived to the location we were informed that we'd wait another hour or so. This was NOT expected. I figured a bit of a wait would happen but not what they stated. Also, the grounds hours are 7-11. There was no guarantee we'd even get in. My girlfriend decided to find... read more
