I love a good haunted house and this one was pretty fun! We purchased tickets in advance online, just the regular general admission and added the dark maze. We came on a Sunday a little after their opening time around 7pm and there was already a line but not too bad of a wait. I really appreciate that they space out the people that walk through so you aren't pushed by others behind or stuck by people in front of you. Makes for so much better of an experience. The haunted actors/crew do an amazing job! While in line, we had a few scares which made waiting pretty fun and builds up the anticipation of walking through. Before you go into the haunted house, they take your group picture for some fun memories. The walk through is a wonderful time. I was really impressed by the added special effects and the overall decor of this haunted house, I was quite scared and definitely lost my voice at the end of the night. After the walk through you can view your photos and decide to purchase. We got two prints and the digital photos for $15. Then we headed to the dark maze, which I didn't really think was that great but if you're in front I guess it's pretty scary. It's not a maze you can get lost in because there's only one way to go.

We planned ahead this year and purchased timed slot tickets for 10:45pm on Saturday, October 28th (the BIG Halloween party night!). Arriving and entering was easy as pie with the VIP/timed upgrade. The general line looked to be approx 45 min wait. I couldn't help but notice the odd lack of "scream zone" activity that I have experienced in years past outside the entrance alley. This activity has always excited and energized the crowd as they await their turn to enter. As always, this haunt's use of hydraulic mechanics to make things pop out at you, really goes a long way! The actors were committed and by now I know to expect the creepy clowns at the end to really lay it in thick and try to get a chase. GT Morgue changes up the fright recipe just enough each year to keep us in our toes and keep us coming back each year while still keeping some of the main installments in place. The way they contort spaces and use shifting floors is unique in keeping the mind at a constant edge, contributing to those extra surprises around each corner. GT Morgue seems to be upping their game too, by bringing in a small donut truck... we didn't try them but it looked delicious. The only real con is that this location is a bit of a dessert in terms of things to do nearby without having to get into a car... but I saw a sign that there is also a tasting room about 5 min walking distance which could be a game changer in future years. Downtown Georgetown is definitely an option however not close enough to walk.

Tried going the first time on Sunday, October 29th. We got there at 7:05 .... just 5 minutes after "opening" time, but the line was already down the street and around the corner. We waited in line for 2 hours and was about halfway to the front. I convinced my daughter and her friends to come back another night. We went again on November 4th, the final night of the 2023 season. This time, we got there about 1 hour 10 minutes before it opened, and there were about 50 people in line before us. They did start moving the line through the photo booth about 20 minutes before the main doors opened, so that was good. The website said it takes ~15 minutes to make it through the haunted house. In reality, it took 5 minutes ... maybe a little more, but definitely less than 10. If you are looking for a jump scare, you need to be the first person in line for your group. Even with that, you usually catch a glimpse of the actors getting back into position from the previous group. The main theatrics were loud music/noises and flashing lights. Overall, i was disappointed, but fortunately, 4 out of the 5 tickets i had i won from a local radio station. I wouldn't pay to go see it again.

Not Worth It. We waited 5 hours exactly to get in. Came at 6:30 pm on a Saturday and got in at 11:30 pm. The line wrapped all around the building to the next like in some of the recent reviews I saw. When we got near the front, we finally saw the sign that said we can upgrade our regular tickets to VIP. Checked the VIP line, it's about as long as where we were standing in the regular line. Should have put the sign in the very back so people would know. My friends and I said it would be worth it if it was scary. Nope, absolutely terrible. I did not scream once and my friend even checked her watch and saw absolutely no change in her heart rate. There were lots of flashing lights and trippy sound/light effects. Those were cool but the actors were not scary. They don't chase you or scare you really. Mostly standing there creepily and sometimes making fast movements. It's EXTREMELY claustrophobic there and smells terrible. honestly, I wouldn't even say it was 10 minutes for the whole thing, possibly 8 minutes tbh, depending on how fast you go, but I went at a regular pace. This place was absolutely overhyped, even if I got VIP it was still not worth it for the experience. A random corn maze I went to last year was 10x better and way more organized. This place should at least sell tickets for certain days or let people choose a timeslot because a 5 hr wait for an 8-minute experience is absolutely ridiculous. So many people left saying it was not worth it while I was walking to the parking lot. I will NOT ever want to go again. This was 100% a money-grab event and would only be scary for little kids. P.S- pic only shows 1 side of line, it wraps around the very end of the building.

Tip: there's a three hour line at 6:30 PM. Tip: there's a three hour line at 6:30 PM. Was terrifying for those who went in... but expensive! Ended up buying the VIP tickets for an additional ~35 each.

The length of the line for a 3 hour wait

The Scariest thing here was the line to get in. I showed up when it opened, and it took over 3 hours to get in the general admission line. I understand that they have VIP/ fast pass tickets for a reason, but you can't have a multi-block long line that barely moves and is exposed to the temperature/ weather. Good experience, as long as your okay selling your soul and waiting 3 hours or paying $40

The difference between 2024 and 2025 events is staggering. The decor took a hit vs last year. Along…read morewith that the drinks all had to be purchased instead of getting some small drinks with price. The whole experience was a let down. If this is the production value going forward we wont be back next year. The worst part was we lost power half way through the night and they tried to just keep going. Instead of refunding us or offering a different night they tried to keep things going but many of the interactive events did not work well. Overall super disappointing this year.

We attended on Halloween night 2024, to the later show. Your tickets suggest arriving at LEAST 20…read moreminutes early and up to 45 minutes early. They advertised a lounge and snacks to purchase. We arrived promptly 45 minutes in advance and found, unfortunately, that the lounge was under an outdoor tent. It was cold and very rainy and this set-up was not ideal in costume! But, we chatted up others who made the same silly choice we did and made new friends so that was cool. There were three floors of entertainment with two of the 4 drinks located on each floor. There isn't a rhyme/reason/order to do them in. So, assuming a similar set up in the future I'd suggest going upstairs first and then experience downstairs later once the crowd migrates up stairs. We hopped into the seance line pretty early, which was good because the line got longer as the night went on. That said, we never had to wait more than minute or two for a drink or any other experience. We heard there was a secret room but never found it. We interviewed all of the characters but then when we got to the downstairs portion they were kind of just hurrying people through and telling you who to talk to to get a QR code for the main portion of the story. Overall, we enjoyed the various performances, which repeated several times throughout the evening, and the cocktails. We felt like we'd seen everything by about the 90 minute mark. It was fun to dress up and be surrounded by lots of other dressed up folks for a fun night out. We'd probably do again next year but not arrive QUITE so early.
