The Fright factory this year, to me, was kind of disappointing. Most of the scenes were repeated, and the whole thing, to me, is waaaaay too short. I would've expected more from these people. I went last year and it was sooo fun!!! But this year, I didn't really feel it. Sorry guys.

Very good! Didn't know the building existed and then how big it was. The wait wasn't all that bad, they had a ghoul out there and sometimes two at once. Had a very neat prop outside as well, they had a skull in a glass container that gave information and had jokes. Very good music outside, not your traditional haunted house music in the line.

On a mild Halloween Night, I began my adventure to the Dark Side. Accompanied by some buddies, I drove to rural Ixonia( following mapquest directions) and was already creeped out being in the middle of nowhere. I purchased my ticket from one of the very helpful staff and we waited our turn. After 15-20 minutes we were guided by one of the story telling undead to the haunted mine. Inside were scares at every turn. Things slamming down, jumping out and squeezing us in, we didnt know which way the next scare was coming from. After we made it through we waited at a bonfire and then were loaded onto the hayride. The wagon was eerie in appearance and as the ride began I was already on edge. We entered the forest where my fellow passangers and I were scared from all angles by actors and props alike. We were unloaded by a second fire and broken into groups by one of the most entertaining ghouls i have ever met. We walked through the forest guided by a rope light and the sounds of screams to guide us. Extremely scared my friends and I entered the corn maze and were scared from start to finish.

Considering I have not been to a haunted house in a few years, this was awesome and I had a lot of fun!!
Please keep it going and growing!!
Thanks for the fun!

Dead by Dawn has done it again!!! I went through the house of bathory on the last night with my wife and two friends, including one who hasn't ever been to a haunted house in his life and we had a blast! Everyone was very in character and believable! Who ever thought of Cheech and Chong in a Haunted House??? They were great!!! I have to give u a A+++ on this it was awesome!

Scary...fun...breathless
Even the wait is fun, hanging by a bonfire telling scary stories. Then the 45 minutes of uncertainty, live and annimated characters. Well designed scenes and just a Halloween atmosphere I give it 2 thumbs up! Must See

When i first looked up this place on here i was skeptical. I saw that most things people had to say about this place were bad. However i figured that the only people writing the reviews were the ones who were displeased. And boy was I right. DONT LISTEN TO THEM!!! Yes $18 seems like alot but it took almost 45 minutes to get through! It was a very good bang for your buck. I have been to other haunted houses and payed around $12 and they only lasted like 20 minutes. The longevity of this field was great. This place was a ton of fun and we are coming back every year from now on! Also, we followed the directions from the website and found it very easily.

When I went, I had a lot of fun. We were supposed to go with a big group but it worked out well with just two because you can only go in with a group of 2 or 3 people. The group ahead of us were scared easily so we kind of laughed as we heard some of the people in the house just say "boo" and the screams would start :) For a local Haunted House, I was really impressed! It was pretty intricate and well thought through with over 20 volunteers dressed up and hiding inside the haunted house to help scare you! The end was the best though if you don't know what's coming! The people ahead of us didn't expect it and were definitely scared!

Great house this year. Lots of characters who were very interactive. Did a great job adlibbing if you answered their questions. Great makeup. Could have used a little stronger finish, but MAN, was that doll room creepy!

GREAT haunted house! It is definitely a good one to go to if you are older. :) The walking through the forest at night really helps with the scare factor. I would not recommend anyone going this year if you have a fear of clowns!
It was a GREAT time.
My biggest complaint--the LONG LONG line. We got there at 9pm and didn't leave until 11:15 and it would have been even later if we would have stayed in the line. ;)

This house was quite interesting. It definitely had some good actors, who really gave a great effort. The outside wait wasn't the worst on the weekend that I went. Unfortunately, I imagine on these colder days, its definitely going to be tough. Because the house is located downtown, there really isn't much that can be done about this.

At first our group was a little upset about the wait time, we later realized that it paid off. We never once ran into another group.

The layout was great. You went through three levels. You could see that a lot of time and effort went into creating their characters and scenes. There is a very creepy Alice in Wonderland on acid feel to it. I would say that there aren't a whole lot of "pop scares" just more creep you out moments.

I really liked the haunted house. It was exciting and kept me on my toes. the actors were very nice and i enjoyed every minute of it. The 3D was AMAZING! I had a lot of fun and i am already excited for next year!

BEST EVER! From the second i bought my ticket it was awesome. Got attacked by creepy girls, a monster with a chainsaw, and some really freaky little alien clown; all before i even went in. The inside was so cool. I think i almost pissed myself a cople times. lol. I especially love the graveyard and the crazy girl in the psyco room. tone of awesome effects too. Eventho it was 15 bucks, it was deffinately worth every penny. P.S. Watch out for the walls!

We had a great time on the trail. We had a group of 6 (3 couples). Just a heads up for anyone considering this "haunt", they only allow groups of 4 (no exceptions!) thru at a time. So keep that in mind if you have a group larger than 4. We had a difficult time deciding how to separate our group of 6, but we wound up breaking down in to 2 groups of 3 (all girls went together and all the guys went together). The wait in line wasn't very long, maybe 15-20 minutes. This attraction does offer tickets at $8 for the trail or $10 for the trail and the Panic Bus. Don't waste your money on the Panic Bus. Take that $2 and by yourself some hot chocolate instead to keep you warm. The walk thru the trail took us about 15 minutes. By the time we reached the end, our checks hurt from laughing at ourselves and each other other, our voices were hoarse from screaming and we are pretty sure we walked out with heart conditions we didn't have when we first started the trail. For being a small, locally put on haunt, they did an excellent job. Would recommend!

Ok, I have to admit I get scared really easily, but I thought this was awesome. I think I knew someone in there because this clown ATTACKED ME!!! I was so scared. I almost fell flat on my face when some creature with a chainsaw CHASED ME!!!

it was a busy night when we got there. there were actors all around. the one at the road got my friend really good. she went running ahead of us. once we paid for our wristbands we were walked down to the waiting area with a group of other people that were waiting as well. once in the waiting area there was a long line but it was very entertaining. there would be actors walking through the line just scaring people left and right. i remember this one girls was getting chased around the waiting area. it was really funny up until someone snocked up on me and got me good. my friends didnt even tell me that someone was behind me until i turned. once it was our turn we were taken out by this one guy that didnt even need to have a mask on. he was that scary. we went through this one barn and it was insane. there was fog coming all around us and that made it even more scary because you couldnt tell if there was anyone around you other then your group. there was a vortex and i almost fell because i thought i was spinning instead. it was fun. towards the end there was an other buliding and we thought we had to go through it until someone came aout and scared us so much that my friend peed on herself. then (s)he chased us down through the corn. one the way out we went through the clown area. i am not one that likes clowns too much. so needlesstosay , it wasnt my faveorite part.

We got there before the crowd so we were in the first group to go through. We purchased all 3 attractions. I like how they continue you through to the next haunted house when you buy more than one house instead of making you wait in the long line again.
The First 2 haunted houses are very similar. The rooms are pristine and decorated in such a manor you feel like you are in the setting. They do a great job of moving you through the scene so you experience the entire room. The actors keep in character and try to get everyone in the group, not just the screamers. There were some similar sets from last year, but they are good sets. I love the exit, it makes a non claustrophobic person, claustrophobic!

The 3rd house is more for effect than scare. The 3-D paint inside is awesome to say the least! The actors are quick to respond to the friendly banter I made and we had a fun dialogue going on. Only suggestion in the last house was get a real chain saw or none at all. The "toy" chainsaw they had was really lame.

This was Haunted House 3-4-5 for us this season. It took us 30 minutes to go through all 3.

It was fairly busy when we got there, but there was still plenty of free parking in the lots out front of the house and we only had to wait about 20 minutes before our numbers were called. They only took cash, which was a slight inconvenience. The waiting area was mostly enclosed and comfortable to wait in. A few creatures roamed around trying to spook people, most gave up too easily. Also, there were a lot of large groups of teenagers milling around. Security did a good job keeping order though.

My group was a group of 8 and too big for the size of the house IMO. The actors and spooks were only set-up to scare the first 1-2 people in the line, leaving the rest to not even see what happened, much less be scared. They tried switching up the lead and order a few times - kudos for that! - but it didn't work very well and we were left in almost the same order throughout. Too many dark corners were left unused for surprise scares.

**Don't read this if you want the rooms to be a surprise**
The actors feasting around the table in the dining room were exceptionally good and the room was fantastically done. The swamp room was also really creepy and the actors did actually wait until the entire group was in and half way through before letting their scare loose (thus scaring everyone). The attic doll room was really really creepy, but lacking in a good scare/startle. The very end of it is also perfect. Too few haunted houses take advantage of the those letting down their guards as they leave.
