Review

Signage / Visibility / Location

Easy to find, I've been there before... just keep going west on Hwy 11, west of Burlington, and you'll find it.

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

There was a guy dressed as a pumpkin/scarecrow on stilts that was cool... there was lights in the waiting area this year... last year they had color changing lights which added to the ambiance of the wait. I can't remember music played in the waiting area, but last year I did, if there was music, I thought it wasn't scary music.

Most Unique

not much uniqueness this year... the deli guy in the smelly room was cool, but the smell was a bit much...

Actors' Performance

poor performance, as compared to last year and the year before, this used to be one of my favorite haunted houses, but this year the actors were too giggly... and the witch guy in the front entrance who told us the rules, was rude... he told us to "shut up" twice and was not scary.

Appropriate For

12 and up

Summary

I miss the skeleton room with strobe lights and moving bones... what happened to the wall of human sized vampire bats that moved? I couldn't enjoy this one as much as last year because there were just too many dark rooms where you couldn't see what was in the rooms... I liked dark rooms, but it felt as if the whole house was all dark rooms... I was first and ended up last a few times because of getting turned around... Dark rooms are good if they are strategically placed. also, this haunt used to have a cool grave yard scene... which was not there this year either... Also, last year they had a cool light up in the ceiling which blinded vision straight ahead, which didn't allow you to see what was coming, which was scary and cool too... that was gone too..
I don't think we'll return next year, unless I hear that they have worked really hard to make it better.... sorry, but I think this haunt has gone down hill a bit... which is disappointing...
