Ok, I have one main problem with this house, and I figure I better let people in on this before they go and spend their money. They give you a sensor-activated flashlight before you go into the house, but according to one of the staff members, this new flashlight technique is a "work in progress". Translation: It doesn't work well, at all. He told us that the flashlights would not work properly if you "swing it around, or back and forth a lot". Does it make sense, if this is a haunted house that's going to make you move around and thrash? My friend had control of the light, and she at no time swung the flashlight to and fro. Our group went through the entire house without a single light to lead the way, which should have been scary, but instead became very annoying because you couldn't see any of the decorations or actors' costumes. I came out of the house scratching my head, wondering what had just happened. Part of the scare process is being able to see what is coming at you. At least a dim/strobe light is needed. We had no light whatsoever, and several times we were boxed in an empty corner, going around in circles. I was mainly concerned that we would end up where we're not supposed to be, like "behind the scenes". It was fun for the first 10 minutes, but it got old really fast.
