    My boyfriend begged me to go here back in October. It was fun and definitely terrifying. The jump-scares were pretty great. I had a tight grip on my man's arm/jacket the whole time, because it was really scary! I hate haunted houses, but it was definitely an interesting experience. The Factory of Terror definitely had me sweating and panting every step of the way. They got a lot of genuine screams out of me.

    This haunted house is the best haunt hands down. I've been coming here for the last few years, and even though it's a drive, it's totally worth it! It's so much fun. I always have a blast going! I don't get scared going through, but I love the atmosphere! It's one of the longest haunted houses/attraction. Great sets and actors. There are 5 different themed bars, with yummy speciality drinks and shots. They even do a Zombie Bar Crawl. A cute gift shop and alot of fun photo ops. Lines can get long, I always buy fast pass and it's definitely worth it! I absolutely love Halloween and everything associated with it, and coming here is my happy place!

    Factory of Terror has four separate phases: Portal to Insanity, Industrial Nightmare, Mahoning Rd. Massacre, and Judgment Day 3D. The Portal to Insanity was a very large house of mirrors. There was a continuous heartbeat thumping that could be felt in your bones and you were completely unable to tell the difference between a mirror and a clear path in front of you. Since there was not a single path through to the exit it was extremly difficult to find the way out. The Industrial Nightmare was a disappointment as it wasn't much more than a room full of props. The Mahoning Rd. Massacre was pretty massive in size. While there were plenty of props, jumps and scares it could have used a lot more human bodies to increase the realism of it. The effects in Judgment Day 3D were expertly implemented. The walls, monsters, and decorations were painted orange and green so with the 3D glasses things jumped off the walls out toward you. Fixtures moved as you walked by creating a surreal feeling. Room after room of 3D effects gave Factory of Terror an excellent finale.

    Let me begin by saying this was one of the best haunted experiences I've had in a long, long time. We purchased discount vouchers through Yelp and saved $4 per ticket. Our cost was $23 per ticket, which, after the experience, I found reasonable for the entertainment value alone. Doors opened at 7pm and we arrived at the parking area around 7:10pm. The lower lot was already full but upper parking was fine. As I understand it, parking was free to 7:30pm and then $5 per vehicle after that. At our arrival, the ticket line was about 10 deep and the voucher/internet ticket line was 2 deep so our wait was minimal. There were port-a-potty's at the ticket line and then directly before the building entrance. As we entered the building, we were greeted with haunted staff that immediately began the experience. While in line, there were more staff that walked around and creeped everyone the hell out, which made waiting bearable, along with props of hanging body parts and gross things of similar nature. Overall, our initial wait was about 1.5 hours to reach the first of 6 haunted areas. Oh, it was sweetest day so everyone received a complimentary bar of chocolate while waiting in line ... YUM !!!! Each of the haunted areas were VERY well put together with fine details that made it all blend together. I spent a good portion of my time admiring all the gory props, in and amongst being scared by all the actors, who, incidentally, played well with our group and made it very entertaining. After 3 haunted areas, we entered an area where we could purchase refreshments and take pictures with some props. Surprising to most, the prices were reasonable with a bottle of water being $1, which was well received after all the screaming we all had done up to this point. The props were fun and well lit, making the end picture appear to have a very professional feel to it. Again, to me, its all about the details that were not overlooked by FOT that continue to impress. The last 3 zones were put together as well as the first 3. None of the areas appeared to have been assembled in haste, providing a keen sense of reality to each area, which, when given time to adjust, heightened the experience. The exit was uneventful, which was somewhat of a bummer. I figured it would have ended on a "pee your pants" barrage of clowns (given the latest news reports), chainsaws and extreme finale ... nope, you simply turn a corner and, "oh, this must be the end because there's the parking lot, harrumph." The only aspect that completely turned me off, aside from the exit, was, while walking through some of the areas, (and let me preface this by saying they had small delays between group entry into each zone), the staff allowed groups to catch up, essentially having a long line of participants. This completely took away from the group experience and I would suggest better monitoring by the staff to delay groups inside the zones to prevent this occurrence. I understand this is a challenge but would likely provide a better experience for all. We got to the parking lot around 10:30pm and headed home, but not before getting a quick look at the lines. HOLY CRAP !!!! The line to get into the building had backed up to the ticket line and the ticket line was around the corner heading toward the parking lot. Getting there at 7pm, you get a respectable 90 minute wait. Apparently getting there around 10pm probably gets you a 3 hour wait. At any rate, this is a great haunted experience that I would recommend to no one younger than 14 years of age. Small children, in my opinion, should not participate as you are immersed heavily in adult-oriented gore and horror that make a haunted house so enjoyable for those of us that are no longer as innocent and pure. This place will definitely scare the pee out of you !!!! Despite minimal shortcomings, I give this experience 4.5 stars (rounded up to 5) and would encourage anyone looking for a good scare to visit ... but arrive early!

    We attend haunts all around the country and made a special trip here because of all of the good Press and recommendations, but were disappointed. It's a very average haunted attraction. It's got some great visual moments and really elaborate puppets, set and tech at points and then there are large sections lacking creativity. There were a handful of very talented actors, but overall most had no idea what they were doing. It really felt that they lacked proper training. One entire walkthrough was basically growling. The maze with the large gargoyles in front had some of the best actors and one incredibly unprofessional actor (the first scare when you walk in) was literally playing on her cell phone and looked up annoyed when we stared at her waiting for her to do something and then waved at us as if to say, "move along, stop bothering me." I did enjoy the mirror maze and some of the floor and wall effects. I felt the use of vertigo tunnels and airbags was excessive and ineffective. There were A LOT of very loud sounds throughout that eventually became less of a jump scare and more of a headache. (Literally my ears are ringing and I have a headache and we left 30 minutes ago.) One of the most frustrating things about the event was the theming inside each walkthrough. It was very difficult to figure out what was going on because they were divided up as if to have distinct themes but once inside each maze seemed to change within itself as if they didn't really know what story they were telling. Stronger theming within each maze could help the actors make stronger character choices. Overall Factory Of Terror seemed to be run by nice people that have a passion for haunting, but need some tweaking and the actors need training. We have attended a few other Ohio haunts and so far the scariest is Lewisburg Haunted Cave which actually is at least a 45 minute walk though. Since Factory of Terror claimed to be so long we expected it to be longer than the cave, but it wasn't. It was multiple smaller haunts under the same roof.

    Bunch of teens.

    This has to be the largest haunted house I've ever seen. The price is a little steep, but when you go through it, you'll understand why. There are so many rooms and features that this has to cost a fortune to keep running. Buy the speed pass! On a Saturday night the lines are absurd. You'll be waiting forever and the $10 you spend on the speed pass will save you HOURS of waiting in line.

They go above and beyond with the decor and attention to detail and creepy statues, and ugh gross. They had some of the creepiest elves I've ever seen in my life. The actors are also great. The wait was not too long. We might've waited 30 minutes in line - much longer during Halloween. It was really fun with so many different Christmas themes. There was even cousin Eddie from National Lampoon's Christmas vacation which was hilarious. I really enjoyed this Christmas haunted house. The actors did an awesome job. There were definitely plenty of jump scares. And at the end they had a Christmas bar with Christmas themed cocktails! It was a super fun to spend our evening.

Not many actors. Boring, most scenes we walked past we weren't jump scared. They literally took away every aspect that made this haunt great. Not many mask like there used to be. The make-up is generic on most of the actors. Schoolhouse and laboratory had its own unique feel. They set themselves apart from other haunts. There were rally none like them. I feel like the new owner didn't want to scare kids so he made it kid friendly. Because there's no other excuse. If you want to check out a haunt that gives you real scares and a feel of what these 2 used to be. Go to Ghoul Brothers or Slaughter house.

It was scary enough for them without me feeling we had to leave within a few minutes and entertaining enough for me.

It reminded me of home with some of the haunted trails we have out there. My kids stopped feeling homesick and really had a blast. Thank you very much to everyone great job.

They were happy to charge you full admission with waiting times over an hour to enter woods. With no people, in queue, in front of you. Woods had nothing to offer, it was rather haleririous experience, where we felt like idiots paying for a late walk in the woods, if I didn't have my flash light on, I would ended up in Emergency, that was the only terrifying experience of nearly breaking your neck! After 20 minutes walk we asked for a full refund, they promised to sort it out and nothing was refunded. I received no further communication. I am extremely disappointed with above experience. They opened up to public, but did not invest in decorations, atmosphere or an experience. Wish I could score -30 for the whole night.
