Wells Township Haunted House Review (2026)

When arriving at Wells Township Haunted House, you’ll quickly realize that you’re smack in the middle of a residential neighborhood! Parking is limited to street parking, but you can find a spot if you’re willing to look around a bit. Right before reaching the midway, you’ll find the ticket booth, and navigating the property is extremely easy. One thing I really appreciate is that there isn’t a long line to stand in while waiting to enter. Instead, they call your group by number, allowing you to enjoy the midway while you wait for your turn.

There’s plenty to keep you entertained, too! When the live band isn’t playing, they have a projection screen showing music videos accompanied by a great outdoor sound system. You’ll also find midway actors roaming the grounds, interacting with patrons and helping keep the spooky atmosphere alive throughout the night.

Overall, the midway area is a fun place to hang out before your tour begins! With entertaining activities, creepy characters roaming around, and plenty of spooky atmosphere, there’s always something to keep the energy going while you wait. If you get hungry or thirsty, there are also food and snack trucks available so you can grab a bite or a drink before the adventure begins!

From the outside, you can tell that this attraction is an older building, which adds to its creepy charm. The music is cranked up when a band isn’t playing, helping create the spooky atmosphere even before you enter. The exterior also features a well-lit sign displaying the attraction’s name, making it easy to spot.

Inside, the attraction features a variety of different themes throughout. One thing that stands out is how smoothly each scene transitions into the next. Rather than suddenly throwing you into a completely different environment, there is a gradual transition that helps set the stage for what’s coming. These little buildup moments make the overall experience feel more cohesive and immersive.

There is a lot going on inside this creepy old building, but the attention to detail and the execution of each effect are seriously impressive. Lights flick on and off in certain rooms, while props and other elements suddenly move, catching you off guard and adding plenty of unexpected scares. The timing of these effects makes them even more effective because they happen so quickly, leaving you little time to prepare!

The music throughout the attraction was another highlight. Each scene featured different music that matched its theme, helping give every room its own unique atmosphere. We also loved the use of compressed air throughout the haunt. It was a very effective way to deliver unexpected scares and keep us on our toes. The props in every room fit their surroundings perfectly, adding to the overall realism and making each scene feel complete.

And seriously, what haunted attraction has a full-on slide that you must go down to reach the next area? This one does! It’s such a fun and unexpected feature that adds something completely different to the experience and makes this attraction even more memorable.

Let’s start off with our tour guide, Bones! At first, he was a little quiet, but as soon as we entered the first scene, he started adding a touch of humor that really brought out his personality. He ended up being great throughout the entire attraction and helped make the experience even more enjoyable. This haunt felt packed with actors from beginning to end, and every single one did a phenomenal job in their respective areas. Each scene featured its own unique characters and skits, and everyone was on point with their performances. It was clear that the actors put a lot of effort into their roles, and we absolutely loved the energy they brought to the entire experience.

Our most memorable scene of the night was the Exorcist room. Year after year, this room continues to be one of our favorites, and the two actors performing in it absolutely killed it! One thing we especially loved, and were not, was when the actress playing the possessed girl performed a full back handspring as soon as the lights came back on. It was such a cool and unexpected moment that made the scene even more impressive. We say this every year, but this scene genuinely feels like it’s straight out of a horror movie. That’s how good it is!

The costumes throughout the attraction were also very well done, along with the make-up and masks. Each one was nicely distressed and had its own unique look, making the characters stand out from one another. No two costumes felt the same, and the attention to detail helped bring each character to life. Combined with the actors’ performances and the unique skits in every scene, the costuming added another layer of quality to an already fantastic haunt.

Throughout the night, there were plenty of unpredictable scares, and they got us good a few times! Some scenes featured moments where the lights would suddenly go out, only for an actor to be right in your face when they came back on. These quick surprises were incredibly effective and kept us guessing about what might happen next. One of our favorite scare tactics was the use of death whistles. These things were EXTREMELY loud and caught us off guard every time, giving us some pretty good startles! We also loved that the actors targeted everyone in the group rather than focusing on just one person. This made the scares feel more personal and kept the entire group on edge throughout the experience.

The ending of this attraction was also spot-on and a fantastic way to wrap everything up. We won’t spoil anything, but let’s just say that, at one point, you’ll find yourself looking up at an actor! It was an unexpected and memorable way to finish the haunt, leaving us with one last moment to remember as we made our way out.

General admission tickets are $18 at the gate, while VIP tickets cost $30. If you purchase general admission tickets online, the price increases to $24, so buying at the gate is the better deal if you’re planning to attend! We spent a total of 20 minutes inside the attraction, bringing our MPD (minutes per dollar spent) to 1.11 based on the $18 gate admission price. This is above average for us, as we like to see an MPD of at least 1.0. For the price, we were happy with the experience and everything this haunt had to offer.

Another fun bonus is that they regularly have bands performing throughout the season! You can check their website to see which band is playing on the night you plan to visit. They’re also hosting a Lights Out event on November 6th and 7th, with tickets priced at $18 at the gate. This could be a great opportunity to experience the attraction in a completely different way!

One thing we love about this haunt is how it continues to surprise us with the changes and improvements they make every year. They always give us a reason to come back, and the experience feels different each time we visit. That kind of effort keeps things fresh and exciting, and we’re already looking forward to seeing what they have in store for next year!
