2009 Event Reviews

Loved it!!! Was way better then I expected...Actors really seem to love what they are doing,,Chainsaw guy you are awsome only time I have ever been scared by a chainsaw...This is a really awsome place for the money...What a great value 10 bucks for all you get..

Make sure you get there early we spent as much time in line for tickets as we did to get in to the haunts...All in all our first time there was really impressed.. few things they could do different shorten the amount of people they send threw at one time 10 at a time is way too much.. the barried alive was not worth the money... and I was very dissapointed with phoeba they could have really gone out on that one creepy woods with fog and pitch black but no spooks to get you and you wait in line forever to get into that one... the two haunts in the warehouse WELL Done didn't wait in line long and it takes about 20min or better to get through.

About Us: Group of ** 8 ** 2 adults, 2 girls age 10, 4 boys age 13
Time: Saturday 8:30 Prime hour
Location: very easy to find and get to
Parking: was packed and we have a large truck they got us in, had lots of parking people helping everywhere directing traffic
Restrooms: Chemical toilets, But, many of them, placed centrally, surprisingly clean A+ on that ** wife HATES these but also commented on the cleanliness of these **

The wait was very long, but again we planned at the peak of Halloween. You can go to the local bar for food and drink and they are within walking distance. Excellent waiting area INDOORS!!! Chairs to sit on, movie playing, good food at concessions and very reasonably priced, hats off to that! Even some arcade games, current ones at that.

Trying to describe without ruining the effects for future guests

They called our ticket #, the ticket booth said 3 hours and it was nearly 3 hours to the minute. WE decided to wait, others in our group did not, they missed out.
They staged us to exit the waiting area, and enter the haunt. I wasn't sure what to expect in the 1st scene but it was quite cool, the actors were strong, it hit many of the senses and did give you the feeling of motion. The use of modern technology was very cool and yet they still hit you with the good ole startle.
Traveling though the haunt, you are directed EVERYWHERE, halls, up stairways, down stairways, through pitch black passages, again hitting all the senses. I liked a little surprise ON one of the walls early on.
They did hit you with a long visual change that our whole group enjoyed, especially the room towards the end of this effect, very well done for a fun ending before the next scene.
Again good use of props to actors. I personally would have liked to have seen more props blended in with actors but that is ME and in no way detracted from the event.
The actors where all done up well and had a high energy to give our group a good scare. Towards the end, some more physical senses overloading, which we all enjoyed.

Over all a great time and awesome experience!!!

I will first start out by saying that we got to Olin Park about 20 minutes before they closed. It was raining on and off so there wasn't much of a wait which was a good thing. The person who took our tickets told us it would take about 20 minutes to walk through. I don't really want to comment on the rooms because I am still not sure what I saw. There is no intereactions from the actors, all they do is go roar. All the scares are pretty predictable and you can tell exactly when they are going to come. They have a few areas of the house that they have good dark hallways but they don't take advantage of it. The rooms are decorated pretty cool but it doesn't add to the scare factor. But by the time we reached the end it took us seven minutes to walk through the house.

This is one of my favorites. I like to take my time and look at all the detail that has been put into this house. You start with taking the elevator down to hell. After that you seem to be going up and down ramps so you are always on different levels. Loved the different mazes, not just the dark usual ones. Also the Clown Carousel was really good with plenty of weird clowns. A couple of places we got a little wet.

I took my 9 year daughter and her friend as thier first haunted house. Wow! This place was awesome! Unfortunatly the girls didn't make it past the top of the stairs before they were freaking out! I tried to talk them tru it but I thought they were going to faint or throw up! A huge thank you to the staff who stepped up and escorted us out quickly and safeley! They also refunded us our money! On a bummer note, I didn't get to enjoy this awesome haunted barn! Omg! It was soooooooooo good! Definetly worth the drive and the price! I will be going back with adults!! I've been to alot and this one is up there with the best! Check it out!

great job this has been the best so far this year that i have gone to. the props were great especially the spider that was my favorite, the last few years i was disappointed but way to go you have brought it back. I am not afraid of haunted houses i just go to have fun and this was great good work.

Great haunted barn the props were awesome and the actors were great.
