This haunted attraction has some of the best actors we have seen thus far in our haunted ventures. They work extremely well together and play off of each other’s energy. Not only that, your energy, vibe, and attitude will contribute to what they are willing to do. No one is safe from the tormented souls in Helheim. Think you are big and bad, not scared of anything? Don’t let that show here! Are you scared and want to crumble to your knees? Your weakness is their desire and they will suck it right up.
The very first part of this haunt is extremely interactive and we had a blast. We were made to dance, and when I say I am the ‘whitest’ dancer alive, I mean it! I do not have an ounce of rhythm in my body. So what does the King ask? ‘Why are you dancing like a penguin that has diarrhea?’ I almost lost it I tell you! Then I was told that my head was wanted. They said I had a nice head that was already torn up. I did have three huge bear claw scratches going down my face. See why we say dressing up can be fun? After all that, I had to play dead. Literally had to lay down on the ground and play dead. Hey! I am not a dog! Since I did listen, where is my treat anyway? They preceded to lightly kick me to ensure I was in fact, dead. And then, oh my goodness, they saw my keys hanging on the front belt loop of my pants. So what do you think they do? Try to take them off. I immediately awoke from the dead and hollered ‘hey now!’ Needless to say, I failed the test, scored a 3, and would later regret my decision. This is not an exhaustive list of what happened, just merely a small overview of what we had to endure! What happens is all unique to the group going in. No matter what, it was a blast, and I am sure you will have a tremendous amount of fun in this section!
With that being said, some of the cast could have some improvements. The dialogue was not a huge factor in the first walk-through here. My team and I tried very hard to get the characters to talk, but it seemed as though they just didn’t know what to say, or maybe they were just trying not to break character. However, one actor who followed us, almost attached to our hips, carrying the head of a late clown was rather chatty. Although nothing he said put us at ease for the rest of excursion. RIP ‘Deadles.’ We are so sorry we could not find the rest of your body. Enjoy your clown friends wherever it is you all go in the afterlife. The rest of the actors in this part, do what they were supposed to. The majority of them were hidden well, and some camouflaged perfectly in with their environment. Yes, I am talking about you, ‘Mr. Bush.’
The final part of this haunt is absolutely bonkers! The actors here are over the top and loud! They saved the best for last, and we could not have been more thrilled. Be sure to keep a lookout everywhere. To the left, right, above, and below, but do not look in one place too long. The cast is great at getting multiple scares at a time. Just because one gets you, for the love of all things scary, do not let your guard down. My team and I made that mistake, and let’s just say we all ended up laughing maniacally. Well, my team, not so much. We were just trying to get through.
One actor here absolutely deserves a shout out, a huge shout out for his performance. Good Boy George! He has by far been the most engaging, enthralling, stimulating actor we have ever had the pleasure of getting to encounter. We have talked about him every day now and cannot seem to quit. We are always able to reference him in one way or another. Good Boy George, keep up the good work and maybe you to, at some point, will get a treat!
