Aura Haunted House Reviews

First impression? Great! The crew outside kept everyone entertained while the line moved along. And once the doors opened it was nonstop scares. Something was always happening, someone always popping out, and I got scared way more often than I'd like to admit. That's really saying something because haunted attractions usually don't get to me.

I brought my two kids, and all three of us love it. The asylum felt believable instead of over the top. Every room felt unique and creepy. I appreciated that they built suspense instead of relying on constant jump scares. Best of all, no waiting in line.

one of the better haunted houses i've been to in the state, actors stand out, hard to tell who's a prop and who's a person untill its too late

We drove over an hour to get here and it was worth every minute, great set designs and attention to detail. The wife and me are already planning on going again next year!

Headed here with a big group of friends and we all had a blast. The actors never broke character once, and a few of them had us completely fooled thinking they were props. Definitely going back.

Terrifying from beginning to end. The gift shop at the end was also great. Photo props were awesome. Will return next year!!

I keep coming back! Love coming to Aura each year since it’s opened. It honestly just keeps getting better! Some of what I call the staple characters are still there but new ones too. makes it exciting and new each time. The whole experience, from start while waiting in line down to the end at the gift shop, is the best! The scarers are amazing and the staff at the booth and gift shop so nice. LOVE when Scary Gary is there. Cant wait for next year!

If you are in central Illinois and make your way to Peoria. This haunted house impressed us.

Aura has amazing lighting effects, but some of the areas are very dimly lit. So watch out as the actors use this to get you when you don't expect it. Its awesome.
The creepy sounds in there worked well in the actors favor. All of scary parts were enhanced with low fog levels and low lighting. The amazing details in each room made us think we were in a real haunted building. Which we were lol

At the end of this amazing haunted house you come into their awesome gift shop with lots of cool Halloween and haunted house stuff and a ton for stations to take selfies with a few actors willing to pose with our group.

Over all this is defiantly a Top 10 Must See Haunted House and we will be retuning year after year to see the changes they make.

Thank you Aura Haunted House for the amazing scary Halloween memories!

The location and building are perfect because of the history. The value and prices were very reasonable. We virtually had no wait time. The rooms were unique and had tons of different themes. The attraction had an abundance of well trained actors. By far the best haunted house in central Illinois.

Loved the detail not knowing the real from the props. About jumped out of my skin every time I went around a corner. Our group never screamed so much, it was awesome! Definitely a Must See Haunted House!
