Jack & Oddfellow: Chaos & Control - CLOSEDHalloween Horror NightsHauntHaunted houseMy second favorite from the event this year. Love a room that can tell a story and this room really nailed it. Awesome time and love the original rooms. Frankly would prefer more of the original rooms vs the IPs as the best rooms this year were the home-brew ones.
Hellraiser - CLOSEDHalloween Horror NightsHauntHaunted houseAn IP done very well. One of their best IP rooms they've created. A great recreation of elements from the first three movies in the series and it was so well done. Highly recommend this one this year - well worth your time.
Ozzy Osbourne: Prince of Darkness - CLOSEDHalloween Horror NightsHauntHaunted houseWhat a wonderful love-letter to Ozzy's body of work. This was just so well themed and connected to well to his body of work. Truly a marvel to experience and even better is there was no one in front of my group so we got to soak it in a bit and enjoy the immersion More rooms like these please
H.R. Bloodengutz Presents: A Halloween Fright-Tacular! - CLOSEDHalloween Horror NightsHauntHaunted houseFar and away my favorite room this year. It told an awesome tale and really had that great b-movie, horror vibe start to finish. Having grown up watching Saturday night local-access, creature features with Svengoolie in Chicago; this really has a nice nostalgic vibe Please don't wait another three years for a sequel.
Cybergoria - CLOSEDHalloween Horror NightsHauntHaunted houseThis was a bloody wonderful romp. The story and progression were logical which is not an east feat to accomplish. The costumes were so well done and really blended into the background which really made this a stand out room this year.
Madlands: Caged Cannibals - CLOSEDHalloween Horror NightsHauntHaunted houseI love the risk they took on this one - very original concept and hope they keep rolling the dice on other rooms like this. This one just didn't work for me. The actors were great, this is just not my genre
Sinners - CLOSEDHalloween Horror NightsHauntHaunted houseThey really did a great job. My expectations were low going in as I heard reviews this one fell flat but I really enjoyed it. They were able to recreate a lot of the tension and bring the story to life in a faithful way. I also enjoyed some of the areas felt more open which was a good, jarring experience compared to other rooms. Well done on this IP
Evil Dead Burn - CLOSEDHalloween Horror NightsHauntHaunted houseNo Ash = No fun Credit to the actors but this is just not an IP worth having for me having grown up with the original movies.
Invasion: Alien Abduction - CLOSEDHalloween Horror NightsHauntHaunted houseFun room. Love the immersion, progression and vibe that was created. I just had the congo-line of people which really pulled me out of the room. Wish I could have went through it with a little more time to really take in the build.
Stranger Things 5 - CLOSEDHalloween Horror NightsHauntHaunted house<woof> ... this was short, not fun and had a long line. This was the opposite of a win-win-win. If you are short on time; this is a very skippable room.
Hillbilly Mayhem - CLOSEDPemberton Haunted AcresHauntHaunted houseAmazing location Highly recommend spending the night here or plan accordingly and hit this and Sir Henry’s as they are not too far apart Very thoughtful builds and immersion Generous spacing so you can take it all in. No-contact with the haunts. I was very fond that the actor screaming was at a minimum which frankly really set this one apart as it lets the tension of the environment really do its work. Cannot recommend this location highly enough
