Parking was good.
Wait Area / Line Entertainment
waiting area was decorated really cool with great scary scenes
Most Unique
moving tunnel - made stomach turn upside down - very cool concept. Would like to have seen more things like that throughtout cornfield.
Actors' Performance
Actors were ok could have more interaction with "victims" - longer scare - masks and costumes were awesome though.
Summary
was hoping to see more scary scenes along the walk and would like to have seen more upon the exit of the cornfield. Wasn't quite sure we were finished.- OK for children.

Go off the directions on the website. It is really easy to find. Appleton Ave and Hwy 45. the front yard is lite up as a graveyard and there is someone waiting for you at the driveway.

Most Unique
i like the vortex tunnel the most. it just seems like they put some effort into making it.
Actors' Performance
they were really great!! i have seen some that i really didnt know if they were real or not...that is until they jumped out at me and scared me.
Summary
the effort that was put into this haunt was great. there are actors of all sizes, that can get you going. (you might want to use the port-o-john before going into the greenhouse).

Signage / Visibility / Location
If you print directions, it's very easy to find. It's right off the freeway on the right side. Look for some strobe lights and a big glowing ghost. Parking is on the street. Be sure to check out the front yard display on the way up the driveway.
Wait Area / Line Entertainment
Ok, I told this to Bruce, co-owner/operator, last night and I think he didn't believe me. The wait area is FANTASTIC! Few haunts take the time to really create an atmosphere in the wait area, but Spooky Stalks has. You won't find concessions or fancy effects or even death metal. You will find simple displays, mood-setting music and the greenhouse warming effect. It didn't cost much, but it took time and thought. To me that goes a long way. I feel that true hauntlovers will appreciate this wait area. If you do, be sure to tell the young lady at the ticket booth, for it was her creation.
Most Unique
2 unique items for this review.
1) The vortex. Yeah, ok, lots of haunts are doing the vortex now, but not like this. These guys built it from scratch!! Not only that, but it's highly effective compared to most vortex tunnels I've seen. I'm not sure why, but it REALLY screws with your equilibrium. Very cool!
2) Humble beginnings. This event started out as a home haunt, a yard display. Over the course of about 3 years, this simple family haunt became the "medium scare" Spooky Stalks(elaboration on "medium scare" below). This venue is unique in its own rights, being both isolated and eerily dark and quiet. This is MILWAUKEE mind you, not West Bend or Cascade. Just an awesome haunt, period.
Actors' Performance
The actors varied in age and experience. They aren't drama students or seasoned veteran actors, but they have a lot of heart and a desire to give you a scare. These guys are friends of the owners. In fact, one guy came to help out one night and loved it so much, he keeps showing up every Saturday (Big Mike-he'll get you GOOD!). Costumes and masks are great. Even the young actors in the field can give you a startle. I was very impressed.
Summary
Spooky Stalks is listed as a "medium scare". To some, it may be, to others...it could very well make your skin crawl. I'm giving it a 'high scare' due to my experience last night. This isn't Splatter Haus scary, but it certainly deserves the credit of having scare skills. I'd like to thank Bruce and the entire team at Spooky Stalks for their hospitality and for a fun night.
Please go out and support this haunt! They have put some serious time, money and effort into it and you will not be disappointed.
