Review This HauntEmail Verified Had a scary time
My GF and I had a wonderful and scary time in the haunt. Actors were fantastic and the setting was excellent. The zombies in the woods scared the daylight out of her. One of them even chased us in the dark.
Scare Factor: Fun Factor: Haunt Value: Email Verified Wow!
Wow! There was so much to see and experience.The walk through the dark trail freaked me out. Had great props, set designs and jump scares that had startled me whole. Totally worth it for the money spent on tickets. I would certainly come again next year.

Scare Factor: Fun Factor: Haunt Value: Scary attraction
Scary attraction. We were scared from the moment we walked in.Great cast and nice effects. The house had well defined rooms, creepy sets and grotesque characters. The passages were narrow, and claustrophobic.
Scare Factor: Fun Factor: Haunt Value: Email Verified Bone chilling terrors
This was the best haunt I visited this year. Everything was perfectly timed.The basement had more horrors and bone chilling moments. The scare actors were phenomenal in terms of their professionalism and performance.
Scare Factor: Fun Factor: Haunt Value: Unending series of terrors!
Unending series of terrors! That is what HellsGate for you. Props and special effects were top-notch. The cemetery had its shares of terrifying moments. The slide was one of a kind. The mansion had creepy sets, props, and was multi-floored. The basement virtually transports you to a different world altogether.The experience was so awesome. Staff was helpful. Recommended!!

Scare Factor: Fun Factor: Haunt Value: Well-done haunted house!
This was a very well-done haunted house! Cemetery was realistic, with cool special effects and scares. Each room was different. Make sure that you never miss this one!
Scare Factor: Fun Factor: Haunt Value: Highly recommended!
We in a group of five friends visited this place last weekend and bought the general admission ticket. Spent approx. an hour in the queue, but the actors kept us engaged by scaring us. All the actors were pretty awesome, and we were amazed by so much detailed graphics in their costumes and they never left the character and scared us like a hell lot of time. Highly recommended!
Scare Factor: Fun Factor: Haunt Value: Email Verified Haunt with all fears and phobias
The haunt virtually plays with all your hidden fears and phobias. The walk through the woods was awesome. Few of those terrors had sent a chill through my spine. My hubby was startled too. If you are looking for a haunt with an above par scare factor, this is the one to go to.
Scare Factor: Fun Factor: Haunt Value: Email Verified Horror freaks you will love it!
This is so much fun with my family every year! Scares and scenes were timed well without any lags or breaks. The actors had the noblest attire and makeover. The props used to scare the holly hell out of us. I do recommend this haunt to all horror freaks.
Scare Factor: Fun Factor: Haunt Value: Adventure through the darkness
We were a few of the last visitors but they still had the entire event in full swing for us. We knew it is going to be a blast as we stepped inside. There was fear at varying levels in this multilevel mansion. I squeezed my self through secret passages to unveil ghastly secrets. It was certainly fun for all ages and we had a quality family time together. An adventure through the darkness coming face to face with the undead. The giant flies hidden in the woods will give you the creeps. Will make this my annual event.

Full of nightmares
I was there last night and got creepy and had a night full of nightmares. Walking around a graveyard is not what we had expected to do, but we still took the challenge and it was the most frightening experience we have had. There was something for all ages and this made it a perfect place for a family outing. The mansion had lots of scares in different ways. It had good number of actors in creepy costumes making us scream every now and then. That was fun and the kids enjoyed the most. Great outing and coming again.
