Review This Haunt
  • Email Verified Unique Location, Same Script

    The location of this haunted house experience is great. It’s not everyday you get to go through a haunted house in a historic jail. With that being said, I expected more from the script. Because there is history to this building, I was going into this experience wanting to see more of the paranormal side. Most historic places I have been to offer ghost tours or paranormal after hours. The haunted house experience was generic and average. The actors were great, but I hope they incorporate more paranormal experiences to this historic jail.

  • Email Verified So Good!

    This haunted house was so good! It’s already a haunted, historical building, but the scariness really comes alive, at night, during Halloween season. They fill the old jail cells with different scenes, each one scarier than the next. You can tell a lot of work goes into it. I’ve you’ve never been, you really need to go check it out. We had so much fun!

  • Great fun

    This is the second year that me and a few work friends visited this. It was a lot of fun. The staff was very nice and clear with instructions. I personally was not scared but still enjoyed especially as a friend was terrified.
