We happened to be in NY visiting family and my wife wanted to fit in a few Halloweens inspired events while in the area. She found Field of Horrors via Facebook and further investigated how to buy tickets at Fieldofhorros.com. Tickets were $40 each and you get 6 haunted houses. Dates are limited to Friday-Sunday; we decided to go on Friday October 10th. We arrived shortly after opening time and were able to find a parking spot and gain entry into the event quickly. The lines fill up quickly so be sure to get there as early as you can. We went through four of the haunted houses in the first hour or so of being there and saved the last two after taking a 40-minute break. The last two houses took a lot longer because of our break, but it was still shorter than waiting for a ride a Disney. The characters in the haunted houses did a great job and acted as if they really wanted to be there, thanks for your hard work! No problems from security being too overbearing like other reviewers noted, but know that once you enter you cannot leave to go to your car and come back in again, so be sure to have everything you need before entering the park. Most staff working the entry to the houses were very friendly except one young girl who had no personality and wouldn't even talk guests entering, very unfriendly. Things you should know before you go: The park is all outdoors and is primarily a paintball park. It can be dirty and muddy in some areas so be sure to wear clothes you don't mind getting dirty. There is no alcohol sold on the premises, but they do sell other beverages including coffee, cider, and plenty of food items. You cannot take photographs or video inside the haunted houses, you also cannot touch characters, if you do, they will remove you from the park. The last haunted house we went in, I believe it was called 'Condemned,' is very difficult to go through. I do not recommend young children or elderly going through this house. The house is pumped full of smoke to the point that you cannot see two inches in front of your face and there is a continuously flashing strobe which doesn't help you find your way through. The only way you can get through this house is if you feel and follow the chain linked fence or the person in front of you as you walk but that doesn't even work for the most part because there are several dead ends. That's pretty much what's so scary about this place is that you can't get out once you get in, it took us about 15-minutes to find our way out. Other things I enjoyed about the Field of Horrors is the scare zone characters - they stayed in character but were willing to take photographs when asked. We also appreciated the bonfire available for guests; it was in the 50's that night so it was a nice touch. We had a blast and felt that this was definitely worth the $40 per person. I would come back again if I'm ever in the area this time of year again.

When I first went many years ago, there were no badges back then, so I don't see how management could know that the wait was *never* that long. I gave it a more positive review 6 years ago for being unique - that's why I wanted to go again, but it didn't hit the same the second time... perhaps I expected more to change over half a decade. For being so dependent on story telling, the little videos throughout the haunt have terrible audio quality. This is one of 10 haunts I visited this year, the lack of jump scares isn't the issue.

The haunt prides it self on making people wait for 5 hours! It did not flow at all. You spent more time waiting for doors to Open then anything else. They made sure you didn't see any other group. Not scary at all. The scary part was waiting in line. You could not move forward until you watched a video in every other room. Hardly any actors in the haunt. I wish I could get a refund for this horrible experience. The worst haunt I have ever been too.

I've been a huge fan of the House of Frankenstein Wax Museum since the very first time I visited as…read morea young child, and one of the coolest things for me now is getting to share that tradition with my son. We visit Lake George at least once a year, and House of Frankenstein is almost always our first stop! This place has been creeping people out since 1974, and I love that they've continued to add to and evolve the museum while still keeping so much of its old-school charm. The classic scenes and wax figures are inspired by legendary horror and literary works from Mary Shelley, Edgar Allan Poe, Robert Louis Stevenson and Victor Hugo. You'll encounter everything from Dr. Frankenstein's laboratory and The Raven to scenes inspired by The Phantom of the Opera and The Hunchback of Notre Dame. Over the years, they've also brought in more modern horror icons, including Freddy Krueger, Chucky, Jason Voorhees and Michael Myers. After paying admission, you head upstairs to begin your journey. First warning: IT IS VERY DARK! Give your eyes a minute to adjust before charging ahead. You make your way through dark, narrow hallways, stopping at individual scenes that are mostly viewed through windows into small rooms. Many are animated, and you'll press an illuminated button to bring the scene to life. Considering some of these wax figures and displays have been around for decades, they've held up remarkably well. My biggest advice: TAKE YOUR TIME! It's a self-guided attraction, and if another group is right behind you, just let them pass. If you race through without stopping to really look at the scenes--or pressing some of those buttons more than once--you could probably be finished in 10 minutes. That completely misses the point. Part of the fun is soaking up all the wonderfully creepy little details. Don't expect a modern haunted house filled with actors jumping out at you. There aren't really any major jump scares and there are no haunt actors. House of Frankenstein is much more about atmosphere, and it absolutely nails that creepy, old-school horror vibe. There's also a historical and true-crime section featuring the Salem Witch Trials and Jack the Ripper, along with several torture chamber scenes and some surprisingly realistic executions. Definitely not Disney World! One of the coolest additions in recent years is a swamp area where you actually walk across a soft, spongy floor while some very creepy creatures lurk on both sides of you. It's a great effect and adds a completely different feel to that section of the museum. One of our longtime favorites comes near the end: the classic black hole/vortex tunnel. No matter how many times I've walked through it, it still manages to mess with my head! They've also added a sci-fi mirror maze and a seriously creepy Chamber of Horrors filled with people hanging upside down inside clear body bags. They're motion activated, so just when you think you're safely walking past them...they start shaking as loud noises erupt around you. Delightfully disturbing! Assuming you're lucky enough to survive everything inside, you eventually make your way back into the lobby. Don't rush out the door, because there are some great animatronics here too, including a talking crow and a skeleton lying inside a casket. And here's one final creepy bit of House of Frankenstein lore: the building itself is said to actually be haunted. Over the years, employees have reportedly told stories of seeing a female apparition walking through the building before suddenly disappearing. Others have claimed to hear footsteps going up and down the stairs after the museum has closed and all the guests are gone, along with mysterious shadowy figures roaming the hallways. Is House of Frankenstein really haunted? Who knows. But considering how many years I've been coming here, I'm perfectly happy NOT being the one who gets locked inside overnight to find out! House of Frankenstein is a wonderfully weird, creepy and nostalgic piece of Lake George history. It may not have the high-tech scares of a modern haunted attraction, but that's exactly why we love it. There's something special about experiencing an attraction I loved as a kid and now getting to watch my son enjoy it too. If you're visiting Lake George while House of Frankenstein is open for the season, make it a stop--and take your time inside. You never know. You might experience a little more than you bargained for.
