Additionally, it doesn't matter that you buy tickets online. You will then have to stand in a stupid long line to get a wristband to THEN go stand in line at your haunted house of choice. The coordinators literally just created 1 huge line that takes hours to get through for no reason. No street vendors or entertainment outside of the houses anymore. Haven't been in a few years hence why I didn't know about the armband or general boringness of the current experience but I imagine it'll be my last time.

But don't worry, we were told that they stay open until maybe 11 or midnight so it might be worth getting in line. We were told to stand in the same line as people who didn't buy tickets ahead of time. No warning of this line. They just take your money and assume you'll either give up or spend your entire night in a line an half of a mile long. Absolute joke.

Was in town for the weekend and stumbled across Hell's Gate and boy am I glad I did!…read more This place is built by horror fans for horror fans. The houses are created with so much care and were genuinely terrifying (but in the best way). Their house of horrors is a multi-roomed homage to horror cinema that is visually engaging, scary, and FUN! And their longer haunt, self-named "Hell's Gate" is 5 football fields' worth of spooks... between its pitch black hallways, the light physical contact from its scare actors, and its sound design I was fully sweating... and the fact that you're physically in the woods only adds to the horror. Add in some fantastic staff and other fun activities like axe throwing and "zombie paintball" and this place just simply rocks. Highly highly recommend! P.S. Including photos of a few beautiful sets from this haunt but these are truly the only ones I got because the rest of the time I was running for my life lol.

The wait times during October are ridiculous because of the sheer amount of people and the fact that they rarely open on time. For how much a ticket is, the stress free experience after Halloween is way better. Having done The Beast twice, I figured it was time to try The Edge of Hell. Honestly, I liked Edge of Hell better. In my opinion, it was scarier and the end was cool. The fact that we weren't overcrowded by people before and after us also helped.

The cost was $8 for a cell phone based audio tour. It lasts about 23 minutes but with pausing the app, it took me about an hour to completely tour the house, gardens and grounds. The seven accessible rooms contain original artifacts from the Wornall family or authentic period pieces collected from the region. The house serves as a focal point for discussing Bloody Kansas, The Battle of Westport, Slavery, and Kansas City in the second half of the 19th century. The original Steinway square piano and the George Caleb Bingham portraits of the family are highlights for me as were the battle artifacts. The slavery used leg irons were a poignant reminder of the reality and brutality of this American nightmare. That item was unearthed at the Withers plantation in Liberty - land that was adjacent to my idyllic childhood home - that's a lot to contemplate. Another overlooked jewel in our great city. Please visit and support their preservation of a vital link to our past.

This fair has been drawing folks for many decades. The locals love it and look forward to it…read moreevery year. There are lots of fun activities with a parade throughout the four days. There are carnival rides, and a ton of vendor booths. My favorite part is the live music they bring in from the region. The bands and solo artists are exceptionally good. They perform on the main stage, which has a large grassy area for the audience, or on the historic bandstand, which has a smaller, but shady grass area. Be aware that parking is minimal for such large crowds. So you may have to walk a little ways. And there is no indoor access for bathrooms or a/c. But there are plenty of outhouses (is that what you call them?). Old Shawnee Days is a fun way to welcome in the summer, and makes for an anticipated tradition.

Highly recommend buying the popcorn bucket for $5, as all refills are $1 forevermore. It's fun to see everyone bring their vintage buckets. If you want to sit closer to the show you need to bring a shorter chair or blanket. Otherwise the standard bucket chairs are on the hill (still great views). You can BYO snacks and drinks. Gates open 1 hour before curtain and there is usually a pre show from a local dance troop or something of the like. Thursday nights are discounted if you buy from the box office. Parking is plentiful and free. Always a good time and many shows to choose from throughout the summer. I try not to miss a single one!!

There was lots of parking, even though we got there early, and this venue is huge and very nice. Everything was kept up and looks new. The production was excellent and we lucked out with the weather. The pricing was great, but you just gotta know some things first, and Ill half-a$$ list them here: 1. be sure to bring a blanket/and I recommend a cheap tarp. 2. you can bring food/drinks just no glass. 3. there are seats that you can rent, or purchase your own LOW lawn chairs...If you use a regular size chair you will need to move to the back. 4. bring bug spray/suntan lotion
