Review

Signage / Visibility / Location

Not sure, I knew where the house was, having been there in the past, so I didn't really look for signs. There is a light-up marquee sign right at the entrance.

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

There waasn't much in the way of entertainment aside from a few toy bats, but with all the great snacks available, who really cares. There's ample room (when it's not crowded) so sit and wait, so make sure you've got interesting friends or a deck of cards.

Length

I'd guess 20 to 30 minutes.

Actors' Performance

I thought the actors really seemed to enjoy their parts and gave it great effort, they can't be blamed if their parts just weren't that scary.

Appropriate For

8 and up

Summary

I've always loved this haunt. It took over a week of coaxing to get my significant other to break down and go since his only other experience with this house wasn't great. We arrived at 7:30 and were told it would be about an hour before we got into the house. It really only took about half an hour four our numbers to be called (fantastic!) Hint- if you go with just one other person, you stand a much better chance of getting in quickly, they are constantly asking for anyone with a group of 2 to come to the front of the line.

The little girl who led us to the start of the haunt was fantastic, truely sinister. From there it was downhill. The majority of the scenes were not scary at all- most that could've been were made into more of a comedy act than a scare. There weren't any surprises, most everything was easily anticipated. Overall, I was pretty disappointed. The other problem was that the group in front of us somehow split in half, I'm not sure if half left, or what the deal was, but they ended up combining us, which made it impossible to cram our whole group into a room, so 2 or 3 people constantly missed the little that was going on in any given room.
