Signage / Visibility / Location
The place was easy to find. The directions were so clear only a blind person would get lost.
Wait Area / Line Entertainment
There were a few gouls out and about screaming and yelling at people attempting to scare them. There was a cassette recording that played over and over every 10 minutes or so that told a story of the place and welcomed everyone. There was a fog machine along with a cemetery made out of styrofoam blocks. Not bad overall. Waited about two hours.
Length
Since the even was self-guided we took our time. Took approximately 15-20 minutes to go through.
Actors' Performance
I was impressed with the creativity and variety of the different scenes. However, it was just another "haunted house" to me. It had more decoration and and ornate details than normal haunted houses though. However, the method of being scared was the same throughout-people yelling at you from corners, loud noises, and sudden appearances. I'm one who doesn't get scared that easily and still didn't get scared.
Appropriate For
Middle school and older
Summary
If you want to see some really cool scenes and things like that, go right ahead. However, I think spending five minutes in a graveyard when it was pitch black out would've given me a better scare than the Burial Chamber. I wouldn't spend another ten dollars to go also - not really worth it.

Signage / Visibility / Location
Very easy to find...signs everywhere and police monitoring.
Wait Area / Line Entertainment
Great! Goats and animals to feed, food & drink to get.We even got glow sticks, and believe it or not, those kept us busy! It didn't take that long to get into the maze because they monitor the ticket sales so well and control the crowd.
Length
We had to have been in there for almost an hour! It was great!
Actors' Performance
There were scares around almost every corner - some expected (like all haunted events have), but some really caught us off guard! We still jumped at the ones we expected at times. They had all types and ages of people working, so it was really cool to get the different types of scaring methods they used - the stilt-walkers we the best!
Appropriate For
All ages, but older kids and adults after dark
Summary
This is the best haunted event I have ever been to! I think I have hit about every one in my lifetime, but for the price, you get the best scares. It is long, too, so it is worth every penny.I don't really do these haunted events anymore because I am 28 years old, but I will DEFINITELY be back next year! I actually was scared in a good portion of it and that is pretty hard to do to me! Keep it up!

Review
Signage / Visibility / Location
With the diriections, very good.
Wait Area / Line Entertainment
We got there 45 minutes early, so the only wait we had was the 45 minutes before they opened. Once they opened, 10 minutes tops. Again, we got there EARLY.
Length
They claimed about 35 minutes. I think it took us about 20.
Actors' Performance
The ghouls were great, when the timing was right. We found ourselves, bunched up with the group before us. So we missed out on a lot of scares, but did see the performances.
Appropriate For
13 and up.
Summary
Like last year, this haunt had a lot of energy and adrenalin behind it. However it seemed to be almost an exact replica of last year. They also heavily relied on dark mazes which made up a good 80 to 90% of thier show. More scenes, less dark mazes and something new would have made it as good as last year. But still a good show.

Review
Signage / Visibility / Location
Great signage... good location
Wait Area / Line Entertainment
None... could have definitely used some - they have great actors at this haunt and a couple would be great in the lines.
Length
EXCELLENT! Seemed a little shorter than last year, but still a long haunt... about 20-30 minutes.
Actors' Performance
EXCELLENT! Actors get into their parts. However, this is the 2nd haunted outside/walking event we went to on this night and this place too had actors that just stood there as we walked by - most were good but about 1/2 dozen just stood there as we walked by - maybe that's what we get for being at the front of the line - we missed out on scares.
Appropriate For
8+
Summary
Actors need to work on timing... just don't scare the middle and end of the group. Makeup and costumes were great and some of the scenes/obstacles you must manuever through are very unique and cool. One thing we missed was the big finale from last year which ROCKED - this year's ending was very anti-climatic... the end was disappointing after the great finale that they had in 2002.

Signage / Visibility / Location
Limited signage (should be lighted)... good location (3 min. off of Hwy 83)
Wait Area / Line Entertainment
None - as we left there was one ghoul circulating through the lines... could have been more... we waited for 1hour with no ent.
Length
Excellent - worth the $... about 20 min. to 1/2 hour.
Actors' Performance
Lots of short, little, young ghouls. Many didn't pop out at us, but popped out at the people behind us so we did get any scares... need better timing.

Summary
We were a group of 2 couples in our late 20's, they paired us up with a mom and 5 kids (ages 5-7) and a couple teenage girls - bad move. I became a "mom" to 2 of the poor little ones who latched onto my legs and now need therapy. We couldn't enjoy the haunt because I was to busy "protecting" these poor kids (who aren't even mine). The length of the event rocked - worth the money, good scenes. Actors just need to work on timing a little bit better... there were parts when we didn't have the kids with us and they still didn't scare us... they just stood there.

Kinda hard to find very dark and if you dont look close you can miss the sign.

nothing really, but just the outside of this place is very scary. We had to wait about 25 min not bad at all.
Length
30 min
Actors' Performance
This place was awesome, this is my 1st year coming to this house and I loved it. It is very different from all the other houses I have been to.

Summary
Well so far after going to a lot of houses this year this has to be my #1 even after visiting Spatter Haus. This place is so creepy looking driving up and when you see what you have to actually go threw it scares you even more. I loved the spinning box that was very cool. You guys had just enough scenes and scares for the whole group. This place is worth the drive and trust me I will be coming back next year to see what you have in store for us, keep up the great work.:)

Very Easy to find with the directions they give you.
Wait Area / Line Entertainment
There was hardley any wait entertainment only a video game that lets you scare people that is in the haunted house, very cool idea! Spent about $10.00 on that game.
Length
it was about 25-30 min, but waited 3 hours to get in to the house!!! So make sure you get there early
Actors' Performance
I was not pleased at all this year, to many black hall ways, after a while they get kinda of boring and not scary, you had a lot less scenes than last year. I was not happy at all with Splatter Haus this year.

Summary
I have been coming to Splatter Haus for 4 years now and everytime I go it gets better and better, EXCEPT THIS YEAR. Maybe it was the new location and you didnt have enough space to make more scenes so thats why you had to add the narrow black hallways, I dont know, but for next year you should search for a better location so you can make your house the best like it always has been or change what you have. I was very dispointed this year. I always come here at least 2 times in OCT but not this year, sorry guys. Before we came to Splatter Haus we went to the Windgo Manor and that was awesome, but we figured we would save the best for last, and I am sorry to say that house was better than Splatter Haus, and I have never seen a house better than Splatter Haus. Hopefully you guys can do better next year!!!

Easy to find, got distracted by another hay ride on the way from madison on 12/18.
Wait Area / Line Entertainment
A 8 inch tv in the corner playing kiddie spook movies(ghostbusters, Hocus Pocus, etc.)
Length
Not counting the wait, about 5 minutes through the haunted house, 15-20 minute hay ride.
Actors' Performance
Hay ride with evil laughts and screams, it was pretty cool but it was cold. I only had a sweatshirt you will probebly need a coat.
Appropriate For
Children
Summary
Good story line in haunted house, had interesting decorations. The haunted house actors were very good! Paid 10$ per person for collage night. Considering the 2 hour combined wait for the haunted house and the hay ride, Not worth the money.

Use their website directions, keep an eye for signs and you'll be alright

Lots of great metal music, but could have used some Rob Zombie, Marilyn Manson and Nine Inch Nails in the mix.
Length
35 minutes.

Great scares every time. Wish there was more makeup work done for costumes more than masks.

Even though there was construction, it was east to get to.
Wait Area / Line Entertainment
The wait for the train was about 2 min. For the house it took about 45.
Length
Going through the house took about 15-20 min......yeah we were being rushed.
Actors' Performance
The train ride got worse than from last year. Wasnt as dark or foggy. The actors weren't as good either. Except for this guy with braided hair and a bloody face.......he seemed to get into it more. The house has awesome props. The actors don't scare you as much as they use to. They are quiet and just come up to you.....just staring at you. The group that came in after use caught up and then there was twelve of us walking in a row and made the house "worse".......

Summary
We got there later in the evening so there was a long waiting period (3hrs). I had 2 12 year olds with me and it would have gotten verylate for them. They allowed us to go through the line without waiting because of the lateness the hour. It was appreciated
