Easy to find, but horrable construction all around!

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

Misc. creepy dudes running around.

Length

45 Minutes

Actors' Performance

Overall pretty good! But if this is what northern Wisconsin has to offer I'd rather stay home. The train ride was cool, as I've never been on a haunted train... but they seemed to focus on one group of 15 year olds and ignored us. The haunted house side was pretty good too!

Summary

Over all the house wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either. it seems very apparent to me that this is a first year haunted house. I will reccommend it to anyone.

Review

Signage / Visibility / Location

For some reason, this location proved to be very hard to find. We had to stop and ask for directions at a gas station despite having Yahoo Maps directions. As you drive up close to it though, it is pretty well lighted.

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

Wait entertainment included a gift shop, refreshments & the movie "The Ring" was playing on a tv. No tarot card reader on the night we attended.

Length

Expect a bit of a wait on the barn, but it's mostly all indoors. Probably a good 20 minutes or more in the house & no idea for time spent in the corn maze.

Actors' Performance

The haunted barn had a great set-up, but failed to provide any great spooks (other than in the mask room). The corn maze was not haunted.

Appropriate For

Ages 10 +

Summary

At the price of $13, this was not a bad deal to do both. The corn maze was not haunted though, which really would have added to the fun. Make sure you bring a flashlight for that, otherwise you'll have to put down a $3 deposit. Sadly, this haunt did not live up to expectations.

Review

Signage / Visibility / Location

There's a great big sign with an arrow pointing where to go...easy to find.

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

No wait entertainment, other than refreshments, but there was not more than a five minute wait for the haunted barn or hayride.

Length

The barn probably lasted about 10-15 minutes, while the hayride was about 20-25 minutes.

Actors' Performance

Haunted barn had *okay* performers, while the hayride offered almost no scares at all.

Appropriate For

Ages 8+

Summary

At the price of $15 for the two, I expected more. They both had an end with a vortex tube, which was the only enjoyble part of the hayride. The attic of the barn was hard to navigate, especially because one of the workers told us we were going the wrong way and we weren't...Just go for the haunted barn.

Review

Signage / Visibility / Location

They need a lighted sign on the street. Hard to see. Plus, the website should warn you of the horrible construction going on near their haunt.

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

The train ride is always fun, and it was a lot better than last year. Strobe lights and monsters. I kind of wish the monsters would have at least looked at me once, instead of spending all the time on only two groups, but I just enjoyed the ride. Then for the main queue, you have the rock music and dancing monsters. There wasn't much of a wait, and we were next to go in when the monsters finally came out.

Length

25 minutes

Actors' Performance

Very good. You could tell the characters were having fun scaring people, and giving it all they could.

Appropriate For

Summary

Very good house. I love the train ride and the wide open rooms. The mirror maze was outstanding!

Review

Signage / Visibility / Location

Looks great! They really spent a lot of time on the back story and the facade while you wait this year.

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

We really didn't have to wait, but they made the indoor queue area look great! Much improved over last year!

Length

20 minutes or so.

Actors' Performance

Excellent. They had a LOT of areas where they jumped out and scared you where you wouldn't expect. Lots of characters that followed you for a while.

Appropriate For

Summary

This was a great haunt last year, and is even better this year! I recommend this to those who are looking for a good, solid haunt. It was a little too dark in some of the scenes, so you couldn't appreciate the quality of them, but that was my only gripe. Great work, guys!

Review

Signage / Visibility / Location

Was Very easy to spot being from the town and all. but the signs could have been bigger. Was a great location, great atmosphere from the start.

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

There were scares outside along with a Hearse that showed up.

Length

around 30 minutes, or more depending on how long they want you to be there.

Actors' Performance

Many of the rooms were very good, but could use some work, but knowin that it is early yet that is understandable, Most characters had good timing and great scare factor, the costumes looked nice, and were original.

Appropriate For

well there is a very scary and not so scary i guess, but it would be good for anyone older than 10 im sure

Summary

This is worth checking out, im plannin on sending my friends there, and im sure ill go back again just to see what has changed and there were somethings i missed im sure.

I really like this haunt. They put on a great show, and I love that they brought back the walk through the woods. It's the perfect attraction for a family.

Signage / Visibility / Location

Same spot as usual, but they seemed to have better signs this year.

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

A couple of characters walking around scaring you, food, video games.

Length

20-30 minutes.

Actors' Performance

Terrible. The audio levels were horrible. You could barely hear the actors (as few times as that happened).

Summary

This was one of my top 3 events last year, and it is a real disappointment this year. WAY too much endless pitch black maze. After about 10 minutes, it stops being scary and just gets annoying when you keep running into the people ahead of you. We went in as a group of 2, but some characters made us join the 2 groups ahead of us, and that was a real disapointment, too.

The big, elaborate rooms and theatrical acting of last year are all gone, replaced by a much lower quality house. What happened, guys?
