Although there were some pacing problems, the haunt was really good over all!! The tableaus were upgraded this year and the size of the corn maze is huge!

Review

Signage / Visibility / Location

Although there aren't any signs for it while on route to the location, it's easy to ge to with the directions on the website.

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

Trimmed down this year. While it was warm in the room and they had some consessions, they only had one pinball game and a computerized video shooting gallery. No other video games as in the past.

Length

From purchasing tix to entering the front door of the "Fusion of Fear", about 30 minutes.

Actors' Performance

Very good!!!

Appropriate For

14 and up.

Summary

Complete overhaul from years past. Usually I'm not a fan of the industrial / Sci-Fi versions of haunts. But, this haunt was a complete overhaul of years past. It was completley new with a ton of new special effects and sets! All of it done incredibly well!!!

Review

Signage / Visibility / Location

Huge sign on the building. In State Fair Park.

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

Thaey had some boths to seel merch and some psychics to read your future.

Length

Since it was opening weekend, the wait was about 10 minutes.

Actors' Performance

The few actors they had were excellent, but few.

Appropriate For

12 and up.

Summary

Well, it was advertised that both the 3D maze and the Zombie Trail were to be opened for this haunt. Fo some reason the Zombie trail was not ready. So we went through the only adult haunt available, the 3D maze.

The effect of the 3D imagery coming from the walls was very cool. The few acotrs they had inside were well costumed and great at scares. However the haunt was VERY quick, well under 10 minutes. And outside of the beautiful 3D murals on the walls, there weren't that many special effects or ambience. DOn't know if it was worth the $10 for a 5 minute maze.

Signage / Visibility / Location

There are no signs at all until you actually reach the fairgrounds. It's a little difficult finding your way around a city (even if it's small) when you aren't from there. Signs would have been majorly helpful here! The location was at the Walworth County Fairgrounds which didn't really help the creepiness at all.

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

It was the first night of the haunted house and it was raining really hard, so we were really the only ones there. As far as entertainment, there was a popcorn truck, that's about it. Not much to do but stand around!

Length

As mentioned, there was no line that night so the wait to get in was almost non-existent. I would guess the average length of the actual event itself was about 10 minutes. For $10 it wasn't really worth it. I would pay maybe $6 or $7 if I went back again.

Actors' Performance

The actors kept screaming "she's coming for you...watch out!" Well, if you haven't visited the official website for the event, you really have no clue who "she" even is. That really takes away from the scare factor. For the most part, all the actors did was scream at you though. Really nothing that stood out...

Appropriate For

10 & Up

Summary

Not the worst haunted house I've been to, but definitely not the scariest either!
