Cedar Point Halloweekends Review (2008)

There are a lot of actors in all the attractions. The cast embraced their individual attraction and ran with the theme. They had everything from clowns to pirates to vampires to evil doctors. There is a wide variety of cast members and they all did a great job at scaring. We particularly enjoyed the individual who walks around in a black bird costume. It’s amazing!

All the costumes were very detail oriented. They look like nothing you would buy in a store. The make up was realistic and must have taken a lot of time to apply. There were very few masks throughout the attraction, but the ones that were used were very intricate. They did very well at matching the costume with the theme. The CarnEvil costumes were our favorite: Who would have thought there are so many different clown masks?

Everyone we talked to was very friendly and happy to help direct us to the next attraction. The lines moved quickly and they sent just the right amount of people through the attractions at a time.

Everything in the park screams “scary.” The props start the minute you pull into the park to pay. They have 2 hearses and skeleton scenes around every corner to get you in the mood. You even have a chance to take a picture in the caskets and buy them. All the themed attractions were done really well and gets your mind and heart racing for what’s to come.

The special effects were great. Everything about them “screamed” scary and haunted. There could have been more animatronics, though. We only saw a few props that actual jump out at you. The actors are great, but the animated stuff is just as scary at times. People hiding behind walls that drop down were everywhere , but they still always scared at least one in every bunch

There were 8 different attractions, all with different themes. All of the attractions were rated kid friendly, except one, and even it was not that scary. This place is very kid friendly so if your little ones want to go to a haunted attraction, this is the one to take them to.

There were a few key effects that made these attractions great. At the end of some of the attractions there was a person hiding in an unsuspecting place that would give you one last scare. Unfortunately, some of the attractions were open so you could see the actor before you got there.

The price is right for $ 43.99. It’s a great deal because you can spend the whole day riding the rides and at night you can take in the haunted attractions. They also keep some of the rides open at night if you feel like mixing it up. There are 8 attractions and 11 shows that can be enjoyed at no extra charge.
