2008 Event Reviews

Top notch haunt. If you're scared of clowns or the dark, this is the house for you.

Guy with the shovel, you rock!!

This corn maze was NOT worth the money--$18 if you wanted to wait 4 hours or $25 if you wanted to wait only 30 minutes. It only took 20 minutes to walk through it, and it was never scary.

Splatter Haus has moved locations in 2008, but the actors are still terrifying as hell and maintain the over-the-top scare factor from past years. Many of these monsters are also hooked up to microphones and speakers so their terrible noises and scares are sure to overpower your own puny screams. These possessed demons will fly at you from out of nowhere, but try to stick around long enough to get a good look at their amazing costumes and makeup. Our group of five included three people who were absolutely terrified and ran out of almost every room screaming, which made the experience much more enjoyable. Tickets are called in batches of 50 so you can hang out and eat, listen to music, or smoke cigarettes like everyone else. I would recommend going early because the wait will probably be over an hour if you arrive anytime after 9:30.

I was very impressed by what I saw at this place, it was pretty sweet. I'm really not a fan of haunted houses because they just aren't scary. To be honest the only reason I went through this one was because my girlfriend wanted to go and I thought it would be pretty funny to see her freak out. I have to say that this haunted house is different than any I've been to before because it actually made me jump. Most that I've been to have just been dark room after dark room with little 12 year old kids dressed in black roaring at me and that stuff just aint scary. The people in this haunted house actually put in effort and tried to scare you. For the most part most of the actors were really creepy. We only decided to go though the first house Morgan Manor and I'm kinda kicking myself for not paying the little bit extra to go through the other two houses. I plan on going back to see if they are as good as the first one.

Halloweeen is the best time of the year,Especially when you get to go to haunted houses. Wisconsin Feargrounds was absolutely the scariest and greatest haunted attraction(s) to attend this year. From the minute I went there I knew these were professional haunts. Everything was well organized from the ticket booths to the wait lines to the haunts. Don't let the calm manner fool you. Inside people were screaming and terrified of the living dead and other beings that lurked within the dark walls. Morgan Manor was so detailed with the perfect setting for a haunted mansion. As you moved through the numerous rooms there were scares from every direction and the actors were so in character, it gave you the chills and wondered if you were going to make it out. Next you went through another maze until you got to Torment, which was eerie in itself. The rooms were exactly what you expected, dark, filled with fog and terrifying shapes and living things; Many times there were things you did not expect! You could tell that many lost souls screamed from the depths of beyond as you made your way through the halls and rooms. There was that one room.....I can't describe it...you will have to go through yourself. After Torment you went to Freaky's which you could hear the not so pleasant carnival music ringing throughout the haunt. While I was in line, a girl came out stating that she had wet herself because of a particular scare. This only made the excitement that much better waiting to go in. The 3-D effects were completely amazing with the blacklights and glasses. I have never seen anything like it. Freaky's was filled with sinister clowns that made you never want to go to a circus again. The haunt was the best 3-D I have seen. Truly these people knew what they are doing in all 3 haunts. They gave scares and entertainment throughout.

Dude seriously if you are to go to a haunted house this year, you only need to go to Wisconsin Feargrounds.......they have 3 there!!

my buddies and i have been going to haunted houses for as long as we can remember and there is nothing freakier, scarier, or AMAZING as these three...you are out of your mind if you donot check it out!!

Makeup, props, sets, EVERYTHING is so rediculously awsome, you can't pass it up.

These houses ROCKED!!! First of all I have to complement on all of the details that were put into the houses. The owner(s) must really have some kind of imagination!!! Manor has the look as if once upon a time it was a beautiful house, then it turned EVIL! I'd love to describe it but I don't want to give it away. As for torment, the name speaks for its self. This house is very horrific with many different scares and a lot of them are at unexpected times! If you can survive the first two houses you end up at freakys. This house will change your entire outlook about clowns. This place really is freaky. Everything looks as if it's coming at you and not to mention the lighting was awesome!!!

As our second stop in our Wisconsin Haunt Road Trip, Terror on the Fox was again, wet-your-pants-fantastic.
Terror is 3 haunted houses set back in the woods behind the National Railroad Museum, so to get there you have to ride a vintage passenger train to get to the dropoff point--its awesome. There are even actors ON the train to scare the daylights out of you!
Then there is a long, winding path through the woods to the haunts, again where you will find actors willing to scare the bejeezus out of you.
After Torment, and their 3D haunt, both which are exceptionally well done, you approach the Main Haunt.
Words cannot completely describe this amazing facade, where the actors dance on platforms, as well as jump off them.
The music is pounding & relentless, while the ever changing, and brilliant light show highlights every nuance, and tricks your mind into thinking this is pure entertainment.
Soon after entering, you realise that you've let your guard down and will be scared witless.
The geniuses behind TOTF change the sets each year, so you will consistantly see new & different things & themes each season. It's always a pleasure to see what the Bad Boys have built to strip your senses & leave you crying for mama.

Last weekend we took a road trip to visit some Wisconsin haunts. First on our stops was Wisconsin Feargrounds- nightmares4u.com -Morgan Manor, Morganas Torment and Freakys Funhouse.

They were exceptional. Having attended last year, we found the ambience to be better this year than last--Morgan Manor and Morganna's Torment were better 'aged' with a true abandoned/lived in look.
The sets were awesome, with lots of detail & realism. The actors were good, none of them so much as said Boo or RAWR. Each actor knew their parts & scenes well, & more than a few had very witty & eloquent quips thrown in for entertainment outside of the scares.
The costumes, makeup, and characters were all well suited for the sets. The haunts were huge, and it seemed to take close to a half hour to go through each haunt.
The new 3-d Haunt, Freaky's Fun House was the best we've ever seen as far as artwork and sets--very well done. It was nice to see not only the walls painted with amazing art, but the ceilings & many times the floor, as well, were covered with the dizzying paints.
Many other *3D haunts* out there do not integrate actors well into these scenes, but Wisconson Feargrounds makes it work seamlessly.
As an added bonus, it was about the most perfect weather you could ask for in October.
