Review

Signage / Visibility / Location

Concidering the fact that it was out in the boonies/middleofnowhere doesn't make it easy to find in the first place. For such a big place it was quite dark. There was a sign in the front however that only said pumpkins and haunted corn maze which was confusing because we came for the haunted manor, so we thought we had the wrong place. There was also initially nowhere for our bus to park.

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

Don't let the ticket line fool you because once you pass through it you'll be ringin around the ropes for a while in line. It seemed like many people were confused as to which was the line for the manor and which was the line for the cornmaze. But whichever line you end up in it ends up painfully long because everyone's in the dark and there is nothing to do but stare and the same people who pass you over and over again.

Most Unique

There were a lot of neat props but that was all it had going for it. So much space but no one to fill it. There was a cool courtyard area in the beginning but once again no action in it. There was a cockroach room which I ended up seeing at another house so who knows who copied who but the redundace of that and the babydoll rooms and the clown rooms seemed to get old.

Actors' Performance

Concidering there wasn't many actors it's hard to judge. There was so much money put into the place that perhaps they didn't have any left over to pay people to work there? And the ones who did were quite timid and gave up on scaring after the first try. Main problem though was that you can't make up for live actors with plastic corpses.

Appropriate For

10 and up

Summary

I wouldn't go back but if you got nothing better to do, it's at least worth it to see the decorations inside.
