Freakshow - Closing Oct 4Mysterious Mansion of GatlinburgHauntHaunted houseFor being in the area this was a nice surprise. Wait time was really long but for good reason as their group control is quite segmented to get good scares in. Itās a quick experience but the actors really know the mansion well to surprise you as they navigate the corridors.
The Red Castle - CLOSEDDelusionHauntHaunted houseThis yearās Delusion was good. The house they run the show out of is the most impressive part, itās huge. Story wise this year is not as scary as years past. With the price increase and less interaction than years past itās debatable whether itās worth it. Thatās what really makes these shows awesome is the way they can allow everyone in the group to be included. We did have a lot of fun and it was memorable. If youāve never done a delusion show this will be incredible but if comparing to seasons past it falls a bit short.
Delusion: Nocturnes & Nightmares - [Season 2023] - CLOSEDDelusionHauntHaunted houseBeen to delusion 3 years in a row. This year was much stronger than Valley of the Hollows. However it just is too darn short. It leaves you wanting a longer experience more interactive scenes and more story. All that said, itās a great show, fun and adventurous. Scare level is moderate but immersion level is top notch. Go with a big group and play your part. Itās a lot of fun. Seems like this might be the last year of the storyline so Iām anticipating something entirely new in years to come.
Room 13Knottās Scary FarmHauntHaunted houseNew maze this year. Unfortunately had poor traffic flow and little scare actors. The concept was cool as a hotel but this was the most disappointing one of the night.
Mesmer: Sideshow Of The MindKnottās Scary FarmHauntHaunted houseMesmer is great. Itās the most creative take on scary circus Iāve been too. Maze doesnāt over do it with clowns but they get creative with many of the elements inside. Strong set design and trippy moments.
The Depths - CLOSEDKnottās Scary FarmHauntHaunted houseBest maze at knotts from a creative standpoint. Venturing āunderwaterā is pulled off perfectly. A well laid out variety of scares and things to see. One moment at the end is terrifying if you are there at the right time. Enjoy!
The Grimoire - CLOSEDKnottās Scary FarmHauntHaunted houseThe Grimoire is one of my favorites a strange camping scene gone wrong. The story isnāt all that clear but itās still awesome. They had a great opening scene the first year but fast tracked it a bit this year to control flow. That being said it was still fun and really cool outdoor vibes. There are some light gunshot sounds so if thatās a trigger be aware.
Bloodline 1842 - CLOSEDKnottās Scary FarmHauntHaunted houseDebating whether bloodline is still as cool as it was when you received interactive weaponsā¦ but it is. This year no weapons but they made it longer and added a few really cool extra scenes in this mad maxian vampire hunter type adventure. Take it slow and enjoy the scenery.
The 17th DoorThe 17th DoorHauntHaunted houseDone the 17th door twice over the years and as scared as I was I think itās fantastic. Itās professionally done and while to each their own fears, I think every room is the perfect level of thrill. Largely more thrill and adrenaline than terror and they do an excellent job of controlling the highs and lows. Shocking does hurt as well was some other moments but it is professionally done. If you are brave I would recommend experiencing it with a solid group of 8.
Dark Entities - CLOSEDKnottās Scary FarmHauntHaunted houseItās okay. But itās about space and aliens. So I personally wasnāt a fan. Could use some more cool moments and effects as well. Still worth going through while you are there.
