Review

Signage / Visibility / Location

Without directions from Haunted WI, we would never have found it. When you are on their road they have a lit sign.

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

Good, loud, hard music. You wait in line in a tent. We waited for about 20 minutes.

Length

20-25 minutes.

Actors' Performance

Decent performance. Some monsters were more enthusiastic than others. I believe we caught a few off guard and the actual scare was reduced significantly if you were not the front two people.

Appropriate For

12 and up.

Summary

The costumes and the attention to detail in the scenes were incredible. Truly second to none. The alien and robot were particularly a sight to behold. They let 8 in at one time and if you are not in the front, be ready to walk into a scene with a monster already barking at you with little scare value. The sound was excellent and really gets your adrenaline pumping. Most scenes were too well lit going into them and there were not enough random scares through out the tight, claustorphobic, pitch-black maze leading up to the scenes. However, it was quite an event to see and I would highly recommend it due to the high-tech quality put into it more than the scare factor.

Review

Signage / Visibility / Location

Great directions on the website and Haunted WI. Without them, you would have a hard time stumbling onto it unless you happened to be driving down HWY M.

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

There was no entertainment besides screams from inside. We arrived just as they were closing and waited for about 25 minutes inside the barn.

Length

About 20-25 minutes. Just right.

Actors' Performance

Wisconsin's best. The monsters were outstanding in their roles and the costumes were very good.

Appropriate For

13 and up.

Summary

I had low expectations due to the lukewarm Journal-Sentinel review, however I was simply blown away! They only let 4 in at one time which increases the scare factor. The rooms were detailed and the monsters were excellent. The scare value was incredible because they would come at you from all angles, stay in their roles and were persistent. My group fell backwards, literally onto the floor, about 4 times. For genuine scares, this was the best haunted house I have ever been too. What a blast! I recommend it to anyone who wants the bejeezus scared out of them.
