Summary
Seriously, one of the BEST houses in Wisconsin. I've been attending scares for the past 16 years, and I can't say enough good things about this one. Excellent wait area, the house is huge which means that it's alot longer than most, it's DARK and creepy the way houses should be, they really use noises and sound effects to their benifit, and it's creative.
One thing I'd like to note, and I hope people who put on haunted houses read this. When using strobes lights, you need to be CAREFUL! I'm a professional entertainer who uses strobes, and I'm familiar with the different kinds availible. There was one point in this house where it was pitch black and we were strobed with a extremely high powered strobe (750 watts!) from about 4 feet away. A smaller strobe (75 watts or even 50)would have done the trick when it's that dark. I went to bed that night still seeing the glare of the strobe. Those high powered lights are meant to be used from a distance (like a dance hall mounted up very high), you could seriously damage someone's vison!
With all of that said, you don't have to spend a ton of money to do a haunted house right... just give use scares!

Summary
They use a lot of neon colors that glowed and they used lots strobes. When wearing the 3-D glasses, it gave me a slight headache near the end. The music was not scary at all. It was banjo music... no, I'm not kidding.
I'm into old school scare: Dark places, creepy music, etc.. The trend of some houses is glow colors and visual effects. This house falls into the second catagory. I might have high expectations, but then again, there are other houses that meet them.

Summary
I really want to like Terror on the Fox, but the past few years I walk out disappointed. It's clear they spend a lot of time, money and effort into getting the look they want... but the scares aren't there. Neat to look at, but just not scary.
The new feature this year is not worth the extra ticket price. It's just the Vortex that they've had for a decade in a different place and a bunch of 3D art on the wall. This should just be included in the price. I personally feel they are over-priced.
One thing that pleased me is that it's not so much a techno club (lots of neon and dance lights) like it was in the past few years.

Summary
They did a good job of changing some things from last year to keep it fresh. The slide is always fun, but you stop half-way down. They advertise no cameras or flashlights, yet they sell glow sticks, etc.. This defeats the purpose of a dark scary place when people walk in with things that glow or light up. They need to inforce the "no light" policy better. All in all, this haunt is great. Nice and long, more bang for your buck!

The house itself is great. Just the way they should be... dark and spooky. It was a refreshing change from the current trend of houses becoming neon techno clubs.

Summary
They did spend some time on this event, but it simply was low budget and not very creative. Also be aware, it's held in a barn where there is hay and live animals. I have allergies, and I was itchy eyes and skin when I was done.
