What They Liked Most:
This attraction offered a lot of bang for your buck as it had 4 attractions. However, it felt like it had way more than 4 attractions because the attr... actions had attractions. Skeletons Lair was easy to find and the parking was great. We bought the tickets online and they had a separate line for online purchases. The ticket booth only accepts cash but they had an ATM for you to access. This attraction did not have bathroom with plumbing but had portapotties available near the ticket stand, along the trail to the attractions and near the attractions. They sold souvenirs near the gate of T-shirts, sweatshirts, pens and masks. It also allowed a photo opportunity in the shop with a white background with the red woods skeleton lair all over.Prepare yourself for about 2 miles of walking according to my step tracker. When we first walked in we were greeted by a were wolf with a chain and he posed with us for a photo. The trail to the attractions went downhill and opened up to a field where the hay ride was to the left next to a concession stand, behind it was the doll house, further up the trail was the 3d house to the left and the haunted trail to the right. After you finish with the attractions, you have to walk back uphill. The staff directed us to the Haunted Trail first. They offered a fast pass at all attractions so there were two different que lines. While waiting in this line in front of the gate, they had a box that moved as if someone was trapped inside. When it was our turn you walk through gate into a small building where you watch Freddy Krueger give safety protocol and lay down the ground rules. Then we began our journey through several themed buildings. Something different that I have never experienced in a haunt before was slides. That’s right, you had to go down sides. The haunted trail had lots of animatronics and a few actual actors. I would have enjoyed more actors but they did well for what they had. My son’s favorite part was the inbreds that threatened to eat us and made us walk through a refrigerator. There was a maze in the haunted trail that was cool and I kept expecting a monster to jump out but they never did. After we finished with the Haunted trail, we were guided to the 3D house. If you have seizures or vertigo issues, I would recommend against this attraction. The highlight for me was the bridge that goes through moving tunnel where it feels like you are going upside down. Once again, there are lots of animatronics and very few actual clowns. One though had a hammer prop and was standing just outside the door and surprised me when he swung it on me. We next were guided to the hayride, and their que lines took longer than the rest of the attractions for us. While waiting I noticed a very large death Walker walking about. They seemed to have three different tractors pulling wagons. These wagons had seats in them with hay underneath the seat, which was nice as far as the itchy factor on my legs. The first stop was Michael Meyers house, the second was a maniac wielding a chainsaw, and then we entered the clown house which was very interesting. We were greeted by some sort of rabbit clown monsters on stilts hopping around which truly amazed us with their acrobatics. Inside, there were live victims and a Circus ringleader. After leaving the clown house we stopped at pirate landing in which the Captain tried to enlist our bearded men and throw some of us overboard to a huge shark. After the hayride was over we were directed to the doll house, which lead through creepy dolls and had a very interesting puppet. The doll house ended with another tube slide. There was another photo opportunity just outside the side with a large clown We last stopped at the concession stand which offered the opportunity for a a few photos. They had hot chocolate, foggy drinks, soda, water , popcorn, we think nachos and baked goods. I highly recommend the foggy drinks because they were so cool.Read More

Suggested Improvements:
I’m not sure if they offered discounts, because it was not in plain sight. I also do not know if they had handicap access for the same reason.
