Review

It has been about 4 years since I have been to Green Bay Fear and now after going this year again I feel like I have missed out on a great haunted attraction over the years. The acting and the performance of the actors is amazing. What is even more amazing none of the actors are paid; they are all volunteers. All the money they raise goes into redoing the attraction (small portion) and the local children's hospital.

When you enter you are able to choose which haunt you would like to attend first: Shawano Manor, Twisted Trail or Mr. Jingles Fun House. This is unique about Green Bay Fear and I believe this is why you never really wait in line to long. You are also able to take the attraction at your own pace. There is so much to do here you won't even know where to start. There is entertainment on the main stage, a fire pit, a gift store, and a whole lot of amazing sounding food at the food carts. You really can spend all night here if you choose.

Not knowing what the weather was going to turn out being and the drive home we opted for the fast pass since when we arrived the parking lot was full and seemed intimidating. Once we got inside the lines were short and didn't really have the need for the fast pass, which I feel is in big part to the options to take the attractions at your own pace and choose what one to do on your time.

We choose the Twisted Trail first. As you enter the trail your senses are overwhelmed with noise, characters and action. The trail is dimly lit and you really can't see to far ahead. The suspense is great. As you make your way through the trail you are greeted by characters and noise in all areas. The trail had a unique theme throughout it but it kept you guessing around every turn. The trail took about 15 minutes to finish.

After the Twisted Trail we went to visit the Shawno Manor. As you enter the Manor you are given a story about what is happening on Earth and why the Fearstein family is so mad. This really set the scene for the whole haunted house. The house is put together so well with no detail left untouched. The acting that was going on you would believe that these were paid actors. It was amazing! The theme was throughout the entire house. This is what most attractions fail to accomplish. Green Bay Fear topped the charts in this area. They think outside the box at this attraction and they don't have the basic haunted house rooms. You never know what to expect in an area. The characters are so fast and flexible they seem like they are from another planet!

The last but not least was Mr. Jingles Funhouse. This was my favorite part of the night. Even though it was short it was well crafted and the suspense and scare that was in this short haunt was amazing. The lights and smoke make it impossible to find your way out let alone know where the next carnie or freak was. It was a bit disappointing when we existed since it was so short, but so good in a short period of time. I hope that they make this part of the haunt longer and keep the theme throughout. There is huge potential for this haunt.

To end the night we took a stroll through the Odditorium. It's a small collection of weird items. Along the lines of a Ripley's Believe It or Not. Very strange, but interesting if you would like to take the time to read the history to the items

Overall, I would recommend this haunt to anyone who wants to see some killer performances with some pretty amazing sets! The time and dedication this crew does for this attraction is top notch!

There are lights and parking attendants directing you. Very easy to see while coming down the road.
