Monstrous Meltdown by Prism Haunt 2023 Restores the Magic of Their Home Haunt

November 6, 2023 By Taylor Winters In Halloween Yard Displays, Prism, Review No Comments

The ramp leading up to the laboratory is already glowing green. A soapy sludge flies through the air, shot from a canon, and slowly slides down the decline. I bravely step into the radioactive residue—and it doesn’t burn my skin. Perhaps it only works on the monsters, I think to myself. Dr. Sanguine pulls a [...]

November 4, 2023 By Taylor Winters In Halloween Yard Displays, Review No Comments

Home haunts and yard displays are always a hit-or-miss endeavor. We often pack a series of ten or so in a geographically similar location together, planning a Burbank Haunt Crawl – or an Orange County Display Hunt. And while most are fun and blend together into one haunt tapestry in the weeks following, we often [...]

Kids giggle as they zip between hay bales stacked three high, providing a modest-sized maze for them to navigate. One laughs and darts back into the maze, rushing forward without thinking. A family of ravens looks on from above, perched atop taller bales; a nest hidden between them. I pop a piece of bubble gum [...]

Fright Farms and Not So Spooky Farm Provide Frights and Family Fun

December 15, 2020 By Alyssa Concha In Immersive Horror, Immersive Theater, Review No Comments

Men in yellow hazmat suits approach the car, our closed windows keeping us safe. They wave wands over our vehicle and over the people outside to see if anyone is infected.

BCR: A Place to Scare’s Cursed Creek Drive-Thru Haunts with Witches and Voodoo

A rush of nostalgia runs through my veins, as if I am being transported back to my childhood, listening to the eerie folklore that plagues my memories – the [...]

County Line Fright Fest’s Asylum Elevates the Traditional Haunted House

November 18, 2020 By Alyssa Concha In Countyline Fright, Haunted House, Review No Comments

I push through two red doors, both marked with crosses, and enter a hazy, fog-filled cathedral. Large stained-glass windows glow at the opposite end of the room illuminating an empty pulpit. Numerous dark hooded figures fill in the pews, their heads bowed in prayer. I slowly inch down the aisle trying to determine which, if […]
