The Terrorfied Forest and Manor Haunted Attractions

I am a big fan of haunted attractions but have not really tried out the different options in the area. To see a strong collection of 5 star reviews really excited me.
I was a little let down.
We purchased the combo tickets for both attractions. The wait for the manor was uncomfortably long, and disproportionately so to the length of the time it took to walk through the haunt. I left feeling that it was not worth the wait time and money.
The forest was a different story. It was most enjoyable. The overall length and pacing was just right with a great variation of sights, sounds, and encounters. And the wait wasn’t quite as long as the line for the manor. It was my first forest haunt and has set a high bar for all future ones.
I recommend skipping the manor and saving yourself time and money and just partake of the forest.

Love this place, and I come back every year. I would recommend going on a Sunday night, the combo ticket price for the manor and forest is $ 20, when normally the forest is $ 20 and the manor is $ 10, so you do save money by going on a slower night! They change up the house every year or two, and this years set up was awesome! There were more… I will say obstacles, which I love! The forest itself is about a 35 – 40 minute walk, depending on how fast you walk. My only complaint about the forest is that there were some gaps of scares. There are some sections where you’re walking for a while and nothing happens, there are just decorations and props, which is fine, but also kind of boring. This could be because I usually go on a slower night, so there might not be as many actors working those times. All in all, it’s a great set up, and there are definite scares!

Dress Warm! Worth that combination for the House25 minutes for Forest 45 minutesScary, fun, creative

Was super scared about haunted anything. Braved it anyway. This place was a blast… worth it to by the pack for house and forest. The monsters are a riot! Would definitely come back. Worth the drive and $ 25 investment.

Awesome attraction and well worth the cost. Loved that they separate all the groups and pay attention to only your group. Props and buildings were very well put together. Monsters had great scare factor and were placed appropriately for good startles! Manor was super fun!!! Loved this attraction!!!

This is a scary and well designed haunted house– perhaps one of the best non-​professional haunted houses the I have attended.
It was hard for me to determine how to rate this attraction, without separating it from the professional and extremely scary haunted houses that I have experienced. So– 5 stars, but recognizing that there are elements that the experts with lots of cash do on a whole other scale.
There are two attractions here– The Manor and The Trail– a combo pass for the 2 events is $ 25.00. It seemed to be worth it, mainly because it reduced the line for the second attraction and saves you $ 2 a piece. On Sundays, the combo is $ 20.00– so a $ 7 savings each! All combo pass holders were required to experience the The Manor first, then the trail.
The line for the Manor seemed to take longer than expected for the amount of people ahead of us, but that may have been due to the makeup of the line (and the attendees of the attraction) — almost entirely teenagers. Haunted attractions generally attract youthful folks, but this crowd seemed especially high school aged. Line cutting and general shenanigans. There was also a creepy old man (not an actor) who was trying really hard to barter/​bully his way to the front of the line, so even the old get up to shenanigans. Thankfully, at least in a group of four, you don’t get paired with other groups.
Also, as in the case of most of these types of attractions, there were port-​a-​potties. Not unexpected, but never a plus.
The Manor was quite good, with some nice scares and unexpected twists. Good scary/​funny communication between the actors and guests right at the beginning. There were some rooms where it wasn’t entirely clear how much interaction was expected between the guests and the actors. Should we stay and chat? Were they prepared for that? Or should we keep moving for the next group? Not always the scariest, but very well staged. Some fun structural elements that I won’t spoil.
The Trail was really fabulous. You walk along a dimly lit trail, following a series of red lights that are close enough to each other to keep you from getting lost, but far enough away from each other to make you feel some trepidation. The actors are expert at inserting themselves into groups. This trail is a good combination of a sense of generalized dread and the kind of startle scares that haunted houses are known for. Quite a long experience (in a good way) with some really stand-​out moments both from the actors and the structural features. At the end is a pitch black maze/​house thing that our group was really really terrible at– so terrible that after trying to creepily stay in character and hint at the exit, the actors finally took pity on us and just pointed us towards the door.
The only down side of the trail was one actor during/​after the hillbilly area who stuck with our group maybe a little too long to be fun-​scary. He smelled strongly of liquor and had a believable snarl. Hopefully part of the act and not just an intoxicated worker or stranger. With the many encounters with the actors at this event, this was the only one that stuck out as a little off and unpleasant (and not in a haunted way).
After the maze, there was the opportunity to buy low priced concessions (or Ghoulmet Cuisine, according to the website): donuts, cider, soda, bottled water, boxed candy, things to dip in nacho cheese, etc.
There is well lit area in front of a scary fake tree with a face where you can take a picture holding a sign that says «I survived the Terrorfied Forest» or something. A nice touch– it gave me something to Instagram.
Overall a really fine seasonal attraction. I look forward to going back in future years to watch this haunted experience grow and change.

We had planned on going Halloween night but it was closed due to a rain storm. Lucky for us they were open Nov 1^st — which turned out to be the best night ever to go! No line, and the weather was perfect. The forest itself was super impressive and really scary. So many elements to this! There were numerous tunnels and haunted wooden shacks, a carnival area, a graveyard, a doll room, skeleton room, zombies, monsters, general creepiness without the cheesiness that alot of better known haunted attractions seem to have. All with the backdrop of what looked like a truly beautiful forest that I’d love to see during the day! You walk through the entire thing guided by dim red lights strung among the trees that add so much to the general ambiance. So much work has clearly gone into this production, I will definitely be back next year. I think we were in there for almost an hour! You can’t beat that for $ 18, which is much less than other places that are nowhere near as good often charge. Love this place soooo much. Wanted to turn around and go back in after it was over. Can’t wait for next year.

Definitely the best haunted event I’ve been to. Line wasn’t too long (lines I don’t mind when I’m properly dressed and have good company), people seemed to love working there and it was all around just well put together. Definitely will go back for years to come. Didn’t even mind the 40 minute drive there.

This place is awesome! You definitely get your money’s worth. I’ve been going here every year for about 8 years.

The forest is great. Not super scary but you walk through a forest for about 40 minutes to end up in a barn where you spend about 15 minutes trying to find your way out. Money well spent.

Best haunted attraction period. I’ve been to Erebus, Wiards, and numerous other big name haunted houses and this place wins hands down. Everyone working there truly seem to enjoy what they do. If you’re looking for a good scare this place should be at the top of your list.
