Review

I was disappointed in this haunted house. I saw reviews and saw it had 5*'s. It was not scary. The graphics were mostly spray painted. I felt for the reviews were not accurate. This is set more for teenagers versus adults. I am sorry I have to write this review as I am not one to complain. We were in and out of house in 12 minutes but waited 60 to get in. It could have had real potential....

Summary

Not a good haunted house.

Review

This place is NOT scary, I think I counted like 7 total actors... I'd say probably 4 of the 7 didn't say anything at all. It was also VERY bright, there isnt much to go through. AKA very short, your not in there for 5 minutes if you understand the interactive codes. This is comparable to a haunted house you'd get at a high schools halloween bash, it was that bad. I did like how it was interactive... You had to find your way through by finding codes to unlock doors. I thought that was very cool and creative. I've been doing haunted houses for roughly 8 years now and this is by far the most poor one that I have been to. Luckily we had a Groupon for this and didn't pay full price. I would recommend this to five year olds it MIGHT scare them...

Summary

Short, too bright, barely any actors, NOT scary at all, might want to reconsider the layout...

Review

I love this haunt! Last year was my first time attending, but I fell immediately in love with the unique style of this haunt and the creativity of the staff who puts it together. This year was no exception, and in a brand new location at the Bavarian Bierhouse!

I mentioned the location because it was a particularly cool element of the haunt – visitors can truly have a full night out in one place (and located very conveniently for those of us who live in the Milwaukee area). After enjoying some food at the restaurant, Twisted Realms offers a bar in the waiting area for the haunt, complete with activities like bobbing for beers! TR also featured a dance party after Friday and Saturday haunts this year, with an awesome DJ and lights. I loved all these additional elements; it just makes the whole experience that much more exciting and fun. VIP tickets come with a free drink as well!

As for the haunt itself, my favorite part of Twisted Realms is the unique, interactive elements. Several of the rooms require “escaping” from, often times while being scared and screamed at by actors! The puzzle element is such a fun, different way to scare people – it can be really anxiety inducing trying to find your way out while also determinedly avoiding eye contact with some really scary people! TR also does an amazing job with their timing – we never encountered any other group, and never felt rushed. I loved the variety of scenes, including a red church and some very creepy bedrooms. The actors had a great mix of providing jump scares and being scary just in their presence; and they weren’t afraid to scream in your face!

All in all, Twisted Realms is one of my all time favorite haunts – the staff is clearly passionate and loves what they do, and that shows through their determination to provide an experience that is both scary and fun. I love the changes from last year, and I can’t wait to experience a blackout night there for Halloween!

Signage / Visibility / Location


Very easy to find; located in the same area as the Bavarian Bierhouse, complete with a neon sign (that can be seen from the highway), and tons of parking.

Wait Area / Line Entertainment


Loved, loved the bar area with games, as well as the dance floor.

Actors' Performance


Very committed to the scares and weren’t afraid to get up in your face, which is something I particularly love. They never lost character as they “helped” us find our way through puzzles and rooms.

Sets Scenes / Props / FX


Unique, moving parts, fake walls, and intentional diversions were really different and fun.

Length


Relatively long; about 30 minutes.

Crowd Control


Great, it was very organized and we enjoyed just hanging out in the general area while we waited!

Most Memorable Moment


The creepy red church! I love the feeling of not knowing who is “real” and who isn’t!

Summary

One of my favorite haunts of all time – such a fun experience for those who are looking to get scared and have a good time doing it. The interactive element of puzzles and trick rooms is amazing, and the waiting area/after party was a blast!
