Review

Holy smokes...what a great time. I can safely say that year after year the Wisconsin Fear Grounds does not disappoint. I love when Friday the 13th happens in October. Made my visit that more fun. Maybe it's me, and maybe it's because I watched a group ahead of me get scared by the people that lurk in the lines, but the stigma seems to make people more jumpy.

You get to go through 3 haunted houses for under $40, unless you do one of the upgrades, which for $40 isn't bad. Or you if you are on a budget you can get your tickets online for $25. If you are on a budget, this is definitely where I would spend my money.

As a repeat visitor I always look for the changes that are made year after year. The first haunted house had some amazing changes this year. The attention to detail is off the charts this year. Great scares and the makeup, if you can keep your eyes open that long, is amazing. After Morgan Manor you get to go through Unknown, which is new this year. There are no words, as it seems that this house preys on some of peoples fears. You don't know who, or what, you will encounter...proceed with caution. Last, but not least, you make your way to Unstable. This house always seems to creep me out. The monsters are darker, and some grosser, that in the other 2 houses.

New this year is their Escape Room, HEX, which really messes with you head and the puzzles/brain teasers are above par. If you can make it out within the allotted time frame KUDOS to you.

Last night, Friday the 13th, was faced with crazy weather; however the staff did the best that they could to keep the lines moving so that we didn't end up soaked to the bone.

Summary

Amazing room designs, great interaction with the monsters, and definitely the best bang for you buck as far as haunted houses go. This place never disappoints me, or anyone else that joins me. Contemplating taking another group out to the Escape Room just to be entertained on how they try and figure out Morgana's insane clues. We will definitely be coming back next year.
