Email Verified Spooky ambience
Loved all the time spent at Shocktober. It was a spooky ambience that can create fear in your mind. The crew managed to organize a clean, old school traditional haunts. It clearly had the scary edge to it. The actors were incredibly good. They worked hard to get the right look and scares us thoroughly. My teenage son was excited about it. He felt it was better than the ones we had visited before. Will recommend to anyone.

Email Verified Spontaneous!!
Lots of laughs and screams!!!! Actors knew how to turn a situation to scare us. Quite spontaneous. There were scares that was just for fun. Do not miss the finale at the basement. It was a great time and we highly recommend.

Electrifying
You are going to regret missing this place, that is, if you are a Halloween enthusiast. Terrifying to say the least. Was there on a Sunday with the entire team from office. The ambience was electrifying and the experience was immersive. Never boring at all even at the waiting line. Loads of entertainment option.

Not exactly terrifying but extremely fun. PG-13. Puts on a great show, the actors really go above and beyond to scare! We had an incredible time!!! Reasonably price…we will be there every year!

Email Verified Beautifully designed...
I have never been to a haunted house before. This being my first haunt I felt it was truly amazing. It all looked truly haunted. I liked how beautifully it was designed from all angles. I am not easily scared. It turned out to be really spooky. A lot of effort has gone into setting the house and writing the scenes. The actors relentlessly pursued us. They can get so close or stalk you and call out your name. An evening very well spent with the family and we are coming back to have more fun.

Email Verified Great Experience
This was our second year on the trot, and again it was a great experience. There were actors roaming around in creepy costumes and scaring people waiting in the lines. Few things changed from last year..but the scariness did not drop. We were grouped with a small number of people..so we experienced all the scares in its full intensity. The attention to detail in the set design was awesome. There were a few tight space to navigate.. claustrophobic people might find it difficult. The scariest haunt in the area.

Definitely worth a visit. This was my first visit to a haunted attraction and I did not know what to expect. But it turned out to be lots of fun, and scary of course. Me and hubby were the last in our group..so we had some freaky experiences.. I screamed, ran and laughed, all within few seconds. There were awesome effects and scary characters coming after you. The conduct of actors were very professional. Staff were also helpful.
