2003 Event Reviews

Excellent house as far as atmosphere goes. There were some very cool props used, most notably, the "impaler" prop. For those of you who don't know, it's about a 10 to 12 ft. monster, I won't give away what he looks like or what he does, but it's very cool to see in action. Lots of very detailed rooms, I don't want to go off on any single room except to say for a majority of the house a lot of effort was put into making this house look like it does. There is a downside to this house though, I wasn't too impressed with the performance of the actors/actresses of the house. There were a lot of people in the beginning of the house who just walked past you and really didn't give half and attempt at a scare. The people who did attempt the scares only got low growls out and most of the people of the house were in plain sight when you walked in. For some constructive criticism, try hiding some more or plan the rooms for better scares. There were lots of unused areas that looked incredible but had little or no scare value at all. I really enjoyed coming to the house. The train is cool and adds a good element to the overall quality of the event. There are lots of really good things in this house. The people in charge of putting this house together have a keen attention to detail. I love that!

It was great lots of high and low points. When you end you get to an open area you just walk through till you get to the big fire pit it would have been great to be chased out by leather face! The fact to you ride out there in an old creepy hearse made it awesome. I can tell you any more.

Since this is a for profit event, I would have expected better entertainment. They have a magnificant structure, but little creativity. Even the person who opens the door for you was in costume.

Younger children may be frightened! I had to reassure my 5 yr old that it was pretend a few times. Kind of gory.
Tip: If you sit on the "passenger's" side of the wagon, you can see more. If you sit near the on board monster you may have a few additional surprises!

great job hope you keep this going for years to come

if you get motion sickness easy i would not recomend you go the wait is a little long they call 50 people at a time but they do not have a lot of places to sit down once you are inside

For the first time in 3 years I didn't have to wait 2-3 hours to get in. I don't know if it's because the parking lot, and trail were different this year or due to the weather and first night of the event. (Same woods, just was on a different side this year). I do think that they should have it for more than 3 nights since people try and get in more than one haunt an evening/weekend. Also, their hours are not that great. My friend and I went later the same night after I had been there with my son, since she was busy earlier. And when we got there they were closed at 10:00. For knowing this place's past history, they should be open later since they have a reputation for a getting a lot of people. We even noticed 4 cars of teens turning onto the road to get there as we were leaving. They missed out on some business. I know last year we were there past 11:00. It wasn't as good as the other years, but was still an excellent spook tour, and I do recommend it for a few screams.
