Yall really outdid yourselves! 🙌 My husband, son, daughter, and myself came through and I was absolutely terrified! From beginning to the very end the horror never stopped. Honestly most of the time I couldn't look up out of fear. Art the clowns horn honking 😭😭 when I looked back at my husband and seen multiple clowns behind him i thought it was the end of my family. Fabulous job yall! Everyone of you guys made our first haunted house experience one we will never forget. Thanks for setting the standard so high!

The rooms were all unique and well thought out, the actors played their parts, had most of the guests screaming. My child had to close their eyes for about 40% of it as they are super afraid of clowns.

It's full of twists and turns and scares around every corner. Though not good for those who can't go up and down stairs, if special accomodations are needed, they will try to work with you, just ask. Oh, and best to make reservations ahead of time, spots sell out fast.

This was my first time in a haunted house. However, it was a fun time. Plenty of creepiness walking around before the doors opened. Even when we knew someone was around the next corner, they still got us on the jump scare.

This is our third year to go to this haunted house and it has gotten better every year! The best thing about this haunted house is that they have changed it up every year. This year there was not a guide so it is way scarier. The kids loved getting pictures with Michael Myers. Maxine was back this year and she still is one of our favorites. She creeps you out with that stare of hers.

This was a great haunted house. Plenty of loud noises to keep you on your toes. Scary people and themes at every turn. The tour guide was definitely fitting right in with the craziness of the “asylum”. Everyone needs to come visit. I would definitely not bring my 5 year old grandson to this.

This haunted house was just scary enough that we were screaming and scurrying, but also laughing. Beware if you have strobe / light sensitivity. Otherwise this is great entertainment to get your blood pumping. We had participants as young as 8 years old in our tour. It depends on the youngster, but this one had a great time! It's an experience we will be talking about for days. And it only $10 per person, I highly recommend it.

You don’t want to miss this amazing haunted house with a fun tour led by the resident ghost of this historic theater! If you like to be scared- several people had to bail out early last year! There were creepy clowns, out of control surgeons, loud noises and surprises,
amazing props & costumes, and something shocking at every turn! The theme will be different this year but the thrills remain! Reserve your spot and skip the ridiculous lines at other haunted houses!
