Review

Signage / Visibility / Location

easy to find with signs all over town

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

got here early to get it - let us in before time and that was nice to get it running promptly

Length

15 minutes - I went pretty fast as my daughter was scared and bawling (and she is 10 years old)

Actors' Performance

great job by everyone involved the rooms were well planned - nice variety

Appropriate For

4th or 5th grade and older

Summary

My daughter and I loved the room with the kids and the strobe light - it really freaked us out seeing children involved, especially considering the history of the building and that room in particular - the mother figure did a great job keeping the suspense, totally startled us and kept us on out toes by continueing to act until she shut the door loudly behind us!!!! Lots of fun

Summary

I came the first weekend this year also and it wasnice to see some changes after a couple weeks. Things really improved. The white room (all the kids and crying mannequins) additions were eary. Definitely my favorite!-

Review

Signage / Visibility / Location

Easy to find, great signs to follow

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

There were characters working the crowd. They got me several times with good scares. Also someone was eating fire! The wait didn't seem to bad, even though it was about 1 1/2 hour.

Length

It took about 15-20 minutes to go through the house.

Actors' Performance

All of the characters did a great job, from the witch selling the tickets to all the monsters in the house. Really amazed at how well the kids performed in the house.

Appropriate For

very scary session - 10 & up

Summary

I know why this was rated the best house in Wisconsin last year - All of the rooms are different from last year and the scares are really great. It was worth driving 45 minutes to get there and well worth the wait. All my friends really thought it was awesome!
