Review

Signage / Visibility / Location

Easy to find and easy parking. Well organized.

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

Large bonfire makes the wait worthwhile. The concession stand had inexpensive food and drinks. Nice change of pace compared to Terror on the Fox. It only makes sense to keep the prices low for the young kids and families coming to your event.

Length

The whole show took us 1 1/2 hours including the wait at the bonfire.

Actors' Performance

The actors in the house as well as the woods did a great job. Also had actors that put on a show out by the bonfire.

Appropriate For

11 and up

Summary

This haunted house was well worth the admission. They kept your entertained from the start. You purchase your ticket and then enter the haunted woods. The haunted woods was my favorite part. You get out of the woods at the bonfire. As you wait by the bonfire, you are entertained by traveling spooks. They call off your group number as it becomes your turn to enter the house. They set the mood for the house with scary music and the announcer entertains the people waiting with spook stories before she calls the numbers. The house itself is set up as a maze in the darkness. You feel your way through the maze to get from room to room. As you enter each room you are greeted by actors who really did a good job playing their part. The whole experience ends with a ride down a slide. The whole show was wonderful. My biggest scares came from the woods. Making the trip through the woods longer would be great.

Terror on the Fox

Fun Factor: Low Fear Factor: Low

Review

Signage / Visibility / Location

Road Construction was not as bad as the parking. Parking lot full and not very organized especially when your trying to leave and you can't get out because of the vehicles coming in. Poor organization.

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

Line to get tickets went fast enough. Only one spook running around trying to scare people. Line to get on train went very fast. Line to get into haunted house very long and slow. Not scary at all. It was a very long wait with not one scare. No scary music. Just heavy metal coming from the house. Graveyard next to line did not have any actors coming around to scare people or even set the mood. To make the night more scary, it would have helped to make the wait in line scary with spooks, special lighting effects, maybe a dead body laying here and there.

Length

Took about 20 minutes to get through the actual haunted house. Should have been longer for $11.00.

Actors' Performance

The go-go dancers in the windows of the haunted house and the actors in the house did okay. Just not very scary. How scary are go-go dancers anyway??

Appropriate For

9 years and over

Summary

We had a fourth grader with us that thought it was the best. Not scary for anyone older. The house itself was overpriced for the scary factor. The Terror people have to make this experience better before I'll go back. The biggest problem is with the wait to get into the house itself. They have to make the wait scary too. Spooky music would help. Rob Zombie is just not scary music. The wait has got to set mood for the house itself. Try cutting some of the lights too. Darkness and silence. What I experienced with the heavy metal music, go go dancers in the windows, and bright disco lights seemed more like a night out at the clubs than a haunted house.
