Signage / Visibility / Location

Very easy to find. Line was very helpful to see on the street.

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

A clown and Guy wearing spiked shoulder pads. Better than last year I guess.

Length

15 minutes

Actors' Performance

Overall I expected more out of this one. I have been going here for three years now and this was the worst of them all. It could have used some more people in it to help scare, and it was not worth the 1 1/2 hour wait. I hope it gets better for next year.

Appropriate For

10+

Summary

It looks like they just threw this one together this year to make some money.

Review

Signage / Visibility / Location

Easy to find. Lots of available parking.

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

Wonderful characters outside. I'm not sure who was harrassing who more-the clown or a bunch of kids waiting in line. All the ghoulies outside were very entertaining.

Length

Who knows, we were busy screaming.

Actors' Performance

One of the best Haunted Houses we've been to. Lots of fun. Actors did a great job of appearing out of nowhere when you least expected it. There is some very cool static displays including holograms and other things. They did a great job of getting your attention over here and then BOOOO they scare you from somewhere else. We're still trying to figure out the ankle grabber trick. We had a blast. We all left with sore throats from screaming.

Appropriate For

12 +

Summary

I recommend this one. Well worth the 8 bucks.

Review

Signage / Visibility / Location

Easy to see. Parking plenty.

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

There was a character or two, but not much. Took about 1/2hr. to get in.

Length

Took about 20-25min. to get through the house.

Actors' Performance

Overall performance was decent. This house didn't have one scene to the next type of layout, but rather a countinously walked path throughout the house. There was a few "room" type areas throught the house, but not many. Dark is scary, but sometimes it is too dark to see the scares that are there. You can hear the voices and know where they are coming from, but can't see them. There are too many people let in the house at one time as a group. Only about the first four people had a scare becasue by the time the rest of the group got there, we knew what was coming.

Appropriate For

12 & up

Summary

I gave this house a "3" overall becasue it could use some improvements, but did do a good job in some key areas. Characters were good, and so were most of the scenes. The scare factor for me probably would have been higher if I was more towards the front of the pack. Much of it was predictable from hearing what was in front of me. Keep it dark, but let us see the scares. Allow fewer people at a time to go as a group. We waited about a 1/2hr. to get in, but would have waited longer for a smaller group.

Review

Signage / Visibility / Location

The location is really easy to find. Well lit and easy to locate.

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

The guys roaming are really freaky. Freddy freaked me out big time. He's very sneaky and looks just like the real one. BoBo the clown gives me the creeps.

Length

It was a good lenght, not too long, but not short either. You were in the house long enough to get pretty freaked out. The part where you keep going in circles until they let you through was cool.

Actors' Performance

Everyone inside did a great job. Especially the crazy kitchen lady. Also the guys who will follow you for a while, that's scary stuff.

Appropriate For

ages 12+

Summary

This was one of the best haunted houses I've been to in a while. It's been a long time since I've actually gotten scared in a haunted house. I left with a little soar throat from screaming.

Review

Signage / Visibility / Location

Very easy to find. Well lit up and line was easily defined on the walkway.

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

Freddy and the clown - BoBo were awesome. Freddy sometimes came out of no where and really freaked a lot of people out. My girlfriend hates clowns and BoBo paid extra attention to her when he found that out. It was cool that they had people outside. Last year they didn't have anyone out there and it made the wait seem even longer.

Length

We were in there around 15min. I think we waited around 45mins.

Actors' Performance

I think the characters were great. They had some areas where you thought someone would be and then they'd scare you from a totally different area.

Appropriate For

12+

Summary

Our group had an awesome time and my girlfriend was nearly crying when we came out. Definitely worth the 8 bucks. I have been here before and I feel this was the best time. We plan to go back next weekend.

overall it was pretty good, they need more entertainment outside, and it needed to be longer for the time we waited it was kind of disappointing that it was over so quick...also some place to stand when it rains would have been nice

Signage / Visibility / Location

It was right off the freeway, Easy to get to.

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

10 Minutes, the entertainment outside made the time go by fast. Freddy was keeping the crowd terrified.

Length

15 minutes

Actors' Performance

The actors jumped out and scared you from everywhere. Some even followed me. What made it even more scarier is that the person over by the tickets would ask us our name and yell it into the haunted house. All the actors then would use it.

Appropriate For

12 and UP

Summary

I would definitely go again. There was alot to look at and the entertainment outside was just as good as the inside. Ususally, haunted houses don't scare me but this one did!
