Hinchley's Haunts

by Nicky75 after attending on Friday, October 17, 2003 at about 3 p.m.

Fun Factor: Very High Fear Factor: Medium

Review

Signage / Visibility / Location

Very easy to find. Right on the highway

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

They had a large heated shed with picnic tables, refreshments including cookies, soda, and hot dogs. They also had a corner with a tv playing movies. These things made the wait time not seem too long or boring.

Length

Hayride: 20-30 minutes Barn: 10-15 minutes

Actors' Performance

The actors for the haunted barn were great. They seem well prepared and knew what to do and when to do it. Seemed very organized. The hayride had a well organized performance for the introduction before actually getting on the hayride itself. The actors in the field were good too. I didn't see any flaws with their timing.

Appropriate For

9+ for hayride 12+ for barn

Summary

I took my 8 year old son because he really wanted to do something more scary for Halloween than what is usually offered for his age group. The hayride was great. It wasn't too short, and I even got a few screams in since I didn't expect some of the monsters to jump out when they did. They even interracted with the people on the ride, so that made us laugh as well as scream. The barn was great too. Had an alien theme. My son was scared, but he's not your typical 8 year old. These got him ready for something even more scary.
I do recommend these two events. Made for a good night of fright and fun.
