Scary Rotten Farms Review (2017)

For a bunch of volunteer actors, this haunt is super impressive when is comes to its characters. No matter what situation these actors were in, they all knew their characters well and how to answer any questions the audience had for them. Throughout the entire haunt, especially in the Carnival, the actors were fantastic. Most of the actors (Besides a few newbies that stood in the corner) were amazingly interactive with the audience and pushed the tours forward. Some of our favorites include Mr. Sneed himself and a Ball Pit clown who was intimidating in stature and in character. One of the more impressive aspects about this cast is the fact that no character said the same thing. Each character initiated conversation and encouraged unique answers that would change each tour from each other. Also, this cast really knew how to use the set and props around them to help complete their characters. Overall, the actors of this haunt especially the clowns made this haunt exciting and unique.

One of my favorite parts of this haunt is their use of special effects. The use of sound effects and noisemakers set the scene so effectively especially in the carnival, that it makes you feel like you are actually attending a circus. The lighting in this haunt is so well done and it effectively directs the eye where to look and go next. The lighting makes this haunt and sets a tone of uneasiness especially in the circus. The plague uses the absence of lighting to make the woods seem even creepier. The scenes in this haunt especially the circus are so well detailed that it is just fun to look at!

Speaking from someone who is hard to scare, this haunt got me! When comparing Scary Rotten Farms two different attractions, one is definitely scarier than the other. If I had to choose one to go through it would hands down be The Chaotic Carnival of Chaos. The clown section of this haunt is so fun and the actors are top notch. With their use of hand noise props and effective pop out scares, it is almost impossible not to be scared. The Blackened Plague however, still had some really good moments but ultimately the actors had a harder job. With The Plague being in the middle of the woods with minimal lighting, the actors had to work harder to get the job done.
