Haunted Cornfield at Meadowbrook Pumpkin Farm

Review

Signage / Visibility / Location

Good directions. We used the ones from the site.

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

Bonfire and numbered waiting. Very long wait, but things to see and do.

Most Unique

The corn could be very creepy just on its own. Very long maze through the corn...it took us 30 minutes to go through, but that was partly because the group in front of us was very slow and we kept catching up to them.

Actors' Performance

Very few actors were left when we went. I don't know if it was because we were the last to go in, but there were very long gaps in between characters. However, those we saw were good and scared us.

Appropriate For

10 +

Summary

I was disappointed that I paid $13.00 and it seemed like quite a few characters had gone home before we could go in. That should NOT happen.

Review

Signage / Visibility / Location

It was easy to find once we found our way down the long Forest Home Avenue. I would have liked written directions from the event itself and suggested that to one of the ticketholders after we viewed the event.

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

Lots of clownish dressed people outside. We didn't have to wait at all to go in.

Most Unique

The circus music playing through the entire house was creepy. I liked that they took one theme and stuck with it throughout the house.

Actors' Performance

Excellent. Nobody broke character once, and the laughs from the clowns were great. I was especially impressed with the women clowns at the end. Somtimes it is hard to be scared by women characters, but these girls were great and very creepy.

Appropriate For

10 & Up

Summary

A great example of what a home-grown haunted house should be. My friend was trembling through the entire house and was very creeped out. I enjoyed the mazes, the special lighting effects and I liked the fortune-teller midway through who kept us going through the house. There were very few people attending this haunted house, which is a shame because it is very good. I go to at least 10 haunted houses a year, so I know a good one when I see one. Take the time to check this one out!
