This one is by far the best haunt in the area. All the attractions looked amazing and the scares were totally worth it.

3 Floors of hair raising fright. Starting on the 2nd floor and working your way to the basement of the 100+ year building then to the outside maze. We have refreshments while you wait and a fire pit, concessions and photo ops at the end.
