Summary
This was the first time that we had ever been to a corn maze so we really did not know what to expect. Upon entering the haunted corn maze the first thing I noticed was that there was a fog hovering in the corn field, it was a calm night so there was no breeze to blow out the fog they were making. This gave the maze a really creepy look and feel.
The sets were o.k. but could have used a little bit of detail work but I only noticed that when I turned on a flashlight to get a closer look. I liked the idea of a crop circle in the middle of things. The monsters in the maze did a pretty good job of waiting till you were right next to them before they scared you but them after they did some came out of character, we could also hear the monsters talking to each other between groups. My only real complaint was the wait to get in. We arrived fairly early (7:00 p.m.) and waited for an hour and 25 minutes. They could have sped things up by letting more than a few people in at a time. I realize they wanted to let people go in as their own group but it made for a long wait. Overall we really enjoyed the corn maze and would recommend it to anyone not looking for an intense scare and gore factor, very good for families.

Summary
When a new haunt shows up I am always excited to check them out so Sunday night my wife and I visited âHalls of Bedlamâ. The outside of the place looked cool with large posters of their logo hung up and lit with a strobe. You pay your money and are given a coin to get into the haunt. I thought that was kind of different so we proceeded to walk down the hallway to give the guy our coin. The âcoinâ actor was pretty good when we could hear him but unfortunately another actor close by was pounding on the walls so hard we could not make out what he was saying. From this point on the house went nowhere. The halls were lit up so much that you could see where the scares were coming from, what little scare there was. Most of the actors thought that standing in your way and not letting you pass is scary. It is not scary at all it is very irritating. Several of the monsters also need to practice better personal hygiene. It was only 7:30 when we went through so they were only working for 1-½ hours but some had very bad B.O. The worse part of the whole house (and I am not making this up) was when one of there actors wanted to French kiss me. Sorry guys but Gay monsters are not scary no matter what you believe. I should have went back in and talked to the management of the place but by the time I exited I was so pissed off by the whole experience I just needed to get out of there. Sorry but due to my experience I cannot recommend this haunt to anyone, it was a big disappointment.
