This is a haunted house located in the basement of a LARGE pizza pub/diner. You buy a ticket and if there is a big line you can hang out at the premises until its your turn to enter the haunt.
The acting at this haunted house is top notch, all the way through. There are a lot of adults working here which is always more scary than teen and pre-teens booing at you. They really created a theme and stick with it. I would describe this theme as Experiment Gone Wrong in a Resident Evil sort of way. I was IMPRESSED! Soldiers throwing their lives away to try to save you from the monsters within, a major surprise involving a 12 foot alien creature, a realistic hellavator ride, and sneaky elements of surprise are a few examples of what is in store for patrons.
My favorite part of this attraction was the acting. The acting was top notch compared to bigger haunts with larger budgets. This is a very creative haunt and its clear the people who operate it love what they do and want happy customers.
I only gave this a 4/5 for fear. I am very hard to scare but I did scream once and had an incredibly fun time even if the fear factor wasn't as high as some other houses. This does however, make it appeal to wider audiences that are looking more to be scared in a fun way than to have to quit halfway through.
In summary, I believe this attraction would especially be great for a family with not TOO young of children that wants a fun Haunted House evening. It is also sure to please even a haunted house veteran with some of the surprises that are in store. A huge asset to this place is that everything is indoors, the wait AND the attraction. It's already pretty cold out and if you want to avoid waiting 2 hours in line outside, this is the place to come to. Not only is it nice and warm inside, there are things to do on site so you are not just standing in a line all night. There's a bar on one side of the restaurant and a large 50's themed pizzeria on the other side that can make pizzas larger than your table (if you're really hungry!). I also noticed an arcade section with a bunch of games.
The haunted attraction is in the basement of this restaurant/bar, but don't let that fool you. This is a BIG place, not some corner pizza joint. They really make use of their space too. I highly recommend this attraction for its indoor perks and enthusiastic staff.
