Review

Splatter Haus has moved locations in 2008, but the actors are still terrifying as hell and maintain the over-the-top scare factor from past years. Many of these monsters are also hooked up to microphones and speakers so their terrible noises and scares are sure to overpower your own puny screams. These possessed demons will fly at you from out of nowhere, but try to stick around long enough to get a good look at their amazing costumes and makeup. Our group of five included three people who were absolutely terrified and ran out of almost every room screaming, which made the experience much more enjoyable. Tickets are called in batches of 50 so you can hang out and eat, listen to music, or smoke cigarettes like everyone else. I would recommend going early because the wait will probably be over an hour if you arrive anytime after 9:30.

Summary

I miss the foreboding tone set by having previous Splatter House versions built on farms in rural settings. However, the newest spawning of this franchise is just as good as the past. There were some very unique scares that I have not seen in past years, and many of the old favorites return. While the scares are top-notch, the sets are not very imaginative or detailed. The actors are incredibly dedicated and intense, but I prefer haunted houses that put just as much effort into room design.
