  • Email Verified Very impressed...

    If you want to get really scared, this is the one to visit. The haunted hayride was rocking scary from start to finish. It was very well done with creative sets and many original characters and scares. Yes, I screamed few times and surprised myself. My GF was holding to my hand all the time. We were very impressed and will definitely do this again.

  • Email Verified Scariest in my experience

    Well organized and great scare factor This haunted hayride that passes through tunnels and gnarled trees was one of the scariest in my experience. The element of unpredictability will keep you on your toes all the time. My kids were screaming non-stop. By the time we exited, I thought I would have liked it to be longer. Can't wait for next season!

  • Email Verified Pretty scary!!

    Lots of scares and laughter. Very entertaining. The haunted house was pretty scary. It was also the longest I’d visited of late. Hayride was great fun. I was pretty startled couple of times in the ride. I will certainly visit again next year.

  • Creepy scenes

    The haunted house set design was impressive. The winding corridors, creepy scenes, scares and smells will freak you out. There was couple of nerve-wracking moments that totally caught me by surprise. I am not revealing those as I don’t wish to spoil your fun. Zywiec’s Corn Maze was awesome too. 100% recommend this event for those who can handle a good scare.

  • Awesome experience

    Awesome experience. The haunted house had creepy interiors and pretty dark portions where you can’t see the scare actors in advance. My wife was pretty freaked out by couple of jump scares and props in the house. Actors’ were professionals in both parts of the haunt. Overall, we had great fun.

  • Super thrilling!!

    Super thrilling. Really good experience! I had a great time. One thing of note was that the characters were new and unique. I have not seen those in any other haunt in the state. Food and drinks were awesome, and the band sounded great. Staff was helpful whenever we sought some assistance. Worth the time.

  • Email Verified Terrible place

    Terrible place. One of the worst haunted attractions I’ve visited in the recent times. Trust me, who got scared by animatronics of some animals and other stuff. I found myself laughing more than being scared throughout the hayride.
