Review

Signage / Visibility / Location

Very easy to find.

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

We were the only ones there at that time, so wait time was not an issue. There were some actors at the front that provided some entertainment.

Most Unique

I really liked that they added the maze this year. That particular part stood out the most to me.

Actors' Performance

There were a ton of actors inside the haunt. They did a great job of jumping out at the right time.

Review

Signage / Visibility / Location

Was not easy to find if your not from the area, but the directions were very good.

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

There really wasn't much entertainment while waiting, but that's okay. They made up for it later.

Most Unique

Around every corner was something you haven't seen at the other haunted house. From the moving box to the room of Dots that comes alive.

Actors' Performance

Excellent. From the minute you enter, the actors interact. They build you up for the unexpected and they deliver.

Appropriate For

10 to adult

Summary

It may not have been the scaries, but it was very well done, the costumes, the actors and the unexpected turns was great entertainment.

Review

Was first time at this location signage could have been better

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

waiting area was pretty decent, with concessions..love the No waiting in line wait for ticket to be called idea!You have to check out the video game (with blue light on top) near the tee-shirt table it is totally worth the dollar!!!

Most Unique

costumes and make up were well done. certain rooms details were awesome

Actors' Performance

First room was total dud walked in and character was not in full costum and on a "water break" drinking a bottled water. Other rooms could have had more interaction.

Fun Factor: Very High Fear Factor: High

Review

Signage / Visibility / Location

It was very easy to find. They had good signage and lot attendants with glow sticks to guide you to the parking.

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

They had barbeque and some stands set up. The stands were set up after the ticket line. We ran straight to the train after we bought our tickets. The train ride was great! I don't want to spoil it but I think that was the most fun in my mind. The actors did a great job overalll of keeping us entertained while we waited at the house.

Most Unique

The train ride, it seems like you are going really far but you end up coming out of the house back at the beginning. I thought that was cool.

Actors' Performance

They were very realistic and creepy! Good job!

Summary

I came on family day. We came late so everything was back to its own scary self again. I had a 6 year old with me and they were really good about not scaring him too badly. He was a trooper though! I think this is defiantely more for older kids definately not younger ones, they have some gruesome stuff in there.

Gilly's Haunted House

Fun Factor: Very High Fear Factor: Very High

Review

Signage / Visibility / Location

Very noticeable, from the dancing clowns outside to the circus music blaring from the speakers. It was quite easy to spot.

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

There was hardly any wait time, so I can't really say.

Most Unique

The most unique area has to be the one with a group of monsters trapped in cages, with a guy on a platform giving them orders. We walked through examining them like they were animals in a zoo. but one of them wasn't in his cage though and gave us quite a scare, and then all the other ones left their cages and cornered us. The whole house was spectacular, but that part is the most memorable.

Actors' Performance

The actors were spectacular. Me and my friends had a blast. All the actors were in character and were very convincing monsters and clowns. Some of them even gave us chase and threatened to harm us adding a great sense of danger.

Appropriate For

12+

Summary

Overall this was one great haunted house. Me and my friends had a tremendous time, and we screamed on more than one occasion. If you are looking for a great haunted house then look no further.

Fun Factor: Medium Fear Factor: Very High

Review

Signage / Visibility / Location

Ok, could have used more signs on the street lamps though, the banner was a nice touch, only if you could see it before you were right there! (~_~)

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

Awesome, Guy hoping around upstairs along with little girl, doubled teamed this Visitor who was panicking, she looked like a quitter at the start, i think they made her quit, Though i missed the hopper where did he go? he disappeared into the haunt and i didnt see him again?

Most Unique

The most Unique places of the haunt, wow where to begin, I think that the waiting line was unique with the actors, I think that if they dont already do so, they should go into the line once ever hour or so to stir the crowd up into a frenzy, The noise/air thing was Brilliant i would have never expected that where it was, and the doctors office, or meat locker thing, Loved it, i dont see how you people got soaked, It was a mist, not a fire hose.

Actors' Performance

some shined, some failed, I think the ones that stood out in my mind, were the Hopper, the Little Girl, The Clown >.> i hate clowns, The devil sailsmen, And those two zombies in that hallway, seriously they know what they are doing in this haunted house.

Appropriate For

16+

Summary

Well, comments, I think that the guy after the doctor with the chainsaw, he didnt look threatning enough, his build is a little off, maybe if you get a larger person to fill in the role it might work better, But besides that, I really did not have a problem with the haunt, I will seriously give this place Props on their design, this seemed like it took some time and effort, Good job guys Keep at it!

Review

Signage / Visibility / Location

We were returning customers so we knew where to go but there are plenty of sings and lights!

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

Kind of a long wait the night we went, however, none of us really cared there was always something to watch, listen to or an actor messing with everyone artound us

Most Unique

I think the rooms that they had with all the 3-D stuff was amazing. I haven't seen anything like that in any other haunted houses i've went to.

Actors' Performance

The make up was awesome! We have been absolutly amazed by how real alot of it looks, it seems to get better every year.

Appropriate For

Summary

I think that the train could use some more decorations on it but for the main part it was pretty good. The front of the house was really fun to watch, with all the actors running all over and the rock music playing was pretty sweet.

Review

Signage / Visibility / Location

The road off of 76 is easy to pass, so keep a close eye, otherwise when you get to it its all light up with orange rope lights that line the driveway.

Wait Area / Line Entertainment

Well when we got there, they were running the last run for some reason (supose to close at 11:30?) and so we got on right away.

Most Unique

The acting and plots.

Actors' Performance

Well i first recommend trying to get a spot at the edge of the hay wagon otherwise its not that thrilling, as i was in the middle. Id have to say on a scale from 1 to 10, 10 being the scariest. Id give it a 6. Very fun tho! Thinking about going again just for the heck of it!
