Signage / Visibility / Location
We got directions on Map Quest were good except we took a wrong turn and got lost had to stop and ask directions. Could use a few more signs.
Wait Area / Line Entertainment
The waiting area had a fire where you were able to stand around and talk if you wanted to. Was not to busy becasue it was a week night. We did wait about 10 min. Talked with the ticket booth people while we waited.
Most Unique
The fridge and flat bed. I would also say the bridge was very cool.
Actors' Performance
The actors were really good. They stayed in character well, regardless of what happened. Maybe less little kids some were not that scary.
Appropriate For
12 and up
Summary
This was our first time at this haunt. We loved it and will be back next year.

Signage / Visibility / Location
Had a big sign in front of the venue. Some decorations that you could view from the road. Was there before so knew location. A sign farther up the road would have helped for new people that you were in the right direction.
Wait Area / Line Entertainment
Came early at the start. No frightening on the outside. With the location, it could have been real frightful if they did at that time. Had one bench to sit on, and a small fire on the outside. New was a line that can wrap around on the inside to keep you from any of the weather elements. That is great.
Most Unique
laying on a flat bed, won't tell you more, you have to find out.
Actors' Performance
Too many smaller kids trying to scare you. Some you could see were not ready to scare you, though we did go in the beginning, but they should have been ready and eager to scare.
Appropriate For
16 up
Summary
Was a much better haunted house last year. This year we were disappointed. Needed more rooms with decorations/props. Had very few. Had plenty of noise/banging though. Not worth the $$ when we went. Went thru the place in less then 10 min. Last year was much longer. Many areas had to be pointed to where to go.

I wasn't from the area, so it took me a while to find it. it's out in the middle of nowhere! i suggest going to mapquest for directions instead of using the ones on the site.
Wait Area / Line Entertainment
the wait in line was about 30 minutes i think. it wasn't bad at all. the music playing and the lighting was spooky and got me pumped. the "green guy" scared me when i was waiting in line.
Most Unique
the bridge at the very end. it was really well built and the "suprise" at the end was great too.
Actors' Performance
very well done. i enjoyed all of the actors' performances except this one girl who tried to seperate my group, she was kind of rude.
Appropriate For
12+
Summary
this was the first haunted house i've been to that i enjoyed. i definetly got my moneys worth and had plenty of good screams. the structure is amazing for being in a barn. i was indeed pleased.

location is alittle of a jaunt out of the way but the torches were quite visible.

Review
Signage / Visibility / Location
The sign had blown down. However, there were torches all around the property. It wasn't hard to find with the directions provided.
Wait Area / Line Entertainment
The waiting area had a fire where you were able to stand around, talking, waiting, converse with the actors - or be scared by them.
Most Unique
This house has always found a good way of separating a group. Last year's cofin, gave way to this year's fridge!
Actors' Performance
Makeup and costumes were excellent. My group had fun because the actors knew was the easiest scare and played along accordingly. The only thing I thought could have been better was in getting the tickets. I recalled from last year's DeWane Productions house, that having the ticket area & actor stay in character the whole time was really very impressive. This year, the girl was "just a girl in costume," not in character.
Appropriate For
10+
Summary
Our group of 6 got split down to two groups of 3. I liked this effort to keep the people in small enough parties so that we all enjoyed the "scare" together. So often the head of the line gives away what's coming up.

Signage / Visibility / Location
Directions were very good from their posting on this webite. Noticed a lot of cars (including ours) passed it once and had to turn around to get there.
Wait Area / Line Entertainment
Waiting cue lines, interesting reading materials on the walls.
Most Unique
Having to lay down on a cart and "go into" a furnace. Very original.
Actors' Performance
Very good. Especially the girl in the parlor with the doll! All the workers enjoyed what they were doing!
Appropriate For
10 and over
Summary
I felt this was a good example that a good haunted house needs workers that have heart! I felt they put on a good show.

Review
Signage / Visibility / Location
I am from the area, so I knew exactly where we were going. There might be a few problems for those that don't know where they're as there were not any signs. There were torches lit along the roadway and a sign on the building. When you get there, you can definately tell you are there.
Wait Area / Line Entertainment
There weren't many people at the house, only one group in line ahead of us. So we talked to the ticket booth people for the three minutes we had to wait. There were people in the house that were yelling to us what the most scared peoples names were, and we obliged. It added to the whole experience.
Most Unique
Without giving too much away, the bridge. I could go into details, but that would ruin it, don't you think?
Actors' Performance
The actors were really good. They stayed in character well, regardless of what happened, and one room in particular creeped me out. (I don't want to give anything away, but kids in haunted thing scare me).
Appropriate For
11+, but they don't allow anyone under 13 in without an adult.
Summary
It was a very well done haunted house, while it did not scare me too much, it did have it's moments. I was with my girlfriend, my 17 year old sister and her 17 year old friend. It was her friends first haunted house, and they were both screaming the entire time. If you scare fairly easy, you'll be scared the whole time. If you enjoy haunted houses for their quality, whether it scares you or not, this house will work for you too. They did a very good job overall.
