Located at the Old Buca Di Beppo is trial of fears haunted house currently running on Thurs-Sunday…read morethru Nov 2. Book on their website, 38$ per person. Ample parking in Ward theater parking lot. There is no specific time reserved so you need to go there early and check in. Once checked in you will get a text message when its your groups turn to go. We waited about 30 min to check in then another 1.5 hours from check in to getting inside. The time spent inside the haunted house was about 20 min. Overall the actors and the set up was good but the wait was pretty long it would have been better and more efficient with set times to reserve.

I especially loved thas years (2025) restaurant theme! Since it was at the old Bucca di Beppo…read morelocation in Ward, the theme went so well with it! I think it also helped that the restaurant itself was like a maze to begin with! My husband and I, and a couple of our friends bought tickets to go as a group, and it was amazing. We all work in a restaurant so we were super excited for this one! What made it even better was the check in, and the way they called you when it was your turn, just like being on a wait list at a restaurant instead of standing in a loooong winding line like we've done before. Awesome, amazing, keep up the great work!

2016 Edition! I…read morefirst found out about the Nightmares Live haunted attraction a few years ago at Dole Cannery, and I had a blast! Fast forward to the present, and Nightmares Live is still going, but in a new location next to Flora-Dec on Nimitz, and they're even better than before! The quality of their scenes is top notch, and their actors did a great job throught the attraction. You can tell that the layout of the whole attraction is well thought out, and the scare plan was executed perfectly. It also helps when you have a couple screamers in your group to set the mood. They've also got some food vendors on premise, and parking is available at West Marine right across the entrance to Flora-Dec. Nightmares Live is going to be open every night for the week leading up to Halloween, so be sure to check them out before they're gone for another year!

When i was asked to go I thought nah because they're not very scary. When I saw the Facebook page…read moreand saw how well the costumes were I thought maybe it can still be a good adventure. I have to say this was a good scare. The costumes, props and effects were spot on. Many places are super dark like you can't see your hand 5 inches from your face. I had to take creepy small steps just to feel my way and get through this. Actors were professionally made up. it was difficult to tell if it was a dummy or not. I'm not one to scare easy but this place got me to jump twice. They have learned well how to guide people to the positions where they want them to be to get a good scare. And then when you think it's over, it's just like the in the movies. It ain't. hahahahha Some food trucks are set up in the parking lot so you can grab a bite to eat. Parking is across the street at West Marines. They have security there too for the safety of your vehicle. $15 will get you in but we decided to get the $20 Fast Pass to bypass the line. Special thanks to Kevin for setting this up again this year. Highly, highly recommend everyone going to check this out. Well worth it and better than most of the haunts out there.

Haven't been here since they had a mummy themed Halloween attraction about 3 years ago. I'm glad…read morethey're back and with a new theme each year. This years theme is the Mutant Massacre. This attraction was way better and I love the fact that all the proceeds go to the Kailua Onstage Arts Theatre. We parked a little bit down the street at the Safeway parking lot. The staff are still very friendly and funny when they're in role. My kids and I love horror and scary stuff so we enjoyed this attraction.

I'll be telling all my friends to bring their kids too

I was really excited about all of the haunted houses this year ... Haunted Plantation is ALWAYS the…read morebest ... But, this year I decided to try them all out. Let me just get to the point ... I spent $20 for this piece of garbage. You heard me .. garbage. The whole production felt too amateurish ... I wasn't even scared. Not once. This years theme was The Revenge of Dr. Carnage and Zombie Paintball bleh bleh. They couldn't even get that right. Having a bunch of people or 'actors' jump out and scream directly in your face really isn't scary, life threatening nor would it make me anxious. Seriously. It annoyed me to no end. The whole experience was just too stereo typical. None of the actors were convincing. It was like watching the worst B rated horror movie ever. It bored me and I wished they gave out refunds. I'd like to give them no stars ... that should be implemented here on yelp ... or to give out negative stars even that would suffice. Needless to say, walking through Dr. Carnage = Boring The Zombie paintball = Stupid Considering the fact that years ago when I was in the states, I did the BlackOut Haunted House in LA and I lasted 3 hours in the McKamey Manor in San Diego .. nothing really compares to either of those haunted houses ... but they were more psychological as opposed to gory. They were on my bucket list and I'm glad I got the chance to do those two :) There's a wait list for the McKamey Manor if anyone's interested. If your a masochist, you'll love them! It's truly hardcore ... :D BUMP*. Would I ever go to Scream 808's 'haunt' again? Hellz NO! Not even if someone else paid for it! Save your money and make the trek to Waipahu and go to Haunted Plantation.

I have gone to this one for the last three years. It seems every year there are less and less…read moreprops and money put into it. Rooms look very empty. Only decorations are trash bags and small kine stuff. It doesn't seem like they really try very hard. They just think making it super dark and having lots of strobe lights will hide the lack of decorations and effort. We waiting for 30 minutes to get in...and we were the only ones in line. It was a Monday night and no one was there! Why did we have to wait? The staff seemed rude and more concerned with socialzing with each other than the customers. I'm glad I didn't pay full price. Hello Groupon. Lastly....it was hard to find. It's on the backside of a building around back. There is NO parking. There was a sign saying free parking at Restaurant Row. Folks that's a walk... AND last time I checked restaurant row was not free. They didn't ask if we needed validation, so I assume they don't do it. They got two stars rather than only one because I liked their theme. I also liked their signs.

"Such A Scream" - Tom Waits…read more For a screaming good time (15 minutes), come to the Haunted Plantation to lose your voice if you're easily scared, just don't expect a lot of scenery. PARKING: You have to park on the street on Malakeke (free). Don't pull into the parking lot of the Haunted Plantation thinking you can sneak by, you'll get turned away or caught. Crossing Waipahu St was like being in a live Frogger game; only later did the police show up to direct/stop traffic for pedestrians, which was very much appreciated. I don't want to be a real live ghost at the corner after being squashed by a speeding motorist. PRICE: $21.00 cash only. You have reserve your time slot online, then go in person and pay up the cash. Stand in the line that leads up to the metal cubicle that opens up to magically reveal a table that will take all your money. ATM on premises. TOILETS: Port-a-potties. Dark too. Don't drop your phone into the abyss. DRINKS and THINGS: It was really hot in October. We ended up buying bottled water for $2 at the "snack cubicle" - another metal cube that had water, juice, candies for sale as well as those glow stick necklaces that light up and make you an easy target in the dark for the actors to scare. PHOTOS: No photography or video recording inside the HP. They are serious. If you get caught they will escort you off property. ATTRACTION: you wait in line at the entrance of the tunnel that leads you to the many cute plantation homes, the paths are lit with those mini candles on the ground. If you're lucky you're going on OCT 28, 203 SATURDAY on a full moon, so you can see better. Each home has a bunch of scare actors that dart across you, come up to your face, skittle on the floor, jump out from behind doors and corners, slam and pound the floor and boards. WEAR SHOES. One of the actors meant to slam the floor with his foot only to stomp on my husband's (protected) foot. Scared people may back into you and step onto your feet as well. If you're easily spooked, you'll get a lovely thrill and scream your head off. My son didn't scream once, but he's not easily scared. My husband screamed once. I screamed the whole way. I wish there was more scenery other than dark dimly lit rooms. There was only one memorable one, a barber-shop that had some light in them. If the owners of 17A are reading this, let me come do the mood lighting for future haunted plantations, I can make the houses a LOT scarier with blue, green, purple, red or orange lighting or a combo. I do my own haunted scenes at home and use theatrical lighting to make things pop. TIPS: Take cash, pee/poo at home, wear covered shoes, drink cold water in your car before walking over, wear diaper. RETURN FACTOR: Only if my vocal cords can handle it.

Wouldn't recommend bringing anyone 12 or younger unless they're a scare fanatic. It was the attraction so all there is, is a big line to get in, an atm cause it's CASH only, and the spot to pay for the tickets. SLAAYYYYY

Walked over to Kapiolani park, then the tennis courts. Lopaka told us stories throughout the entire tour. You do get to participate, I don't want to give too much away. You'll walk away with memories and stories to share. There is walking involved on this tour. Bring a jacket. Park at Waikiki Shell or the metered parking between the bandstand and the tennis courts (Kalākaua Ave). I can't wait to go on the next tour!

OH MY GOD!! They are returning this year - WHOOHOOO FINALLY!! I literally just booked 6 tickets for…read moremy friends and I as soon as I received their email that tickets are now on sale. I haven't written a review for any business yet and this is definitely worth my first review!! I did this back in 2015 and let me just say I have never experienced a haunted house like this ever before - Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios doesn't even come CLOSE to this one! I really hate calling this a "haunted house" because its soo sooo soooooo much more than that. It's more like a "theatrical experience" where you feel like you've just been placed INSIDE a freakin' horror movie. My adrenaline and heart raced from the beginning to the end. Yes, you will be touched, pulled and grabbed but NOT tortured or put through any pain! You may have to run, hide, crawl and jump out of windows (no joke). So if you have any injuries that'll prevent you from being able to do these things - you probably shouldn't do this. Also, we got reeeeally dirtied up at the end of it - so definitely wear something you don't mind getting stained or dirty. I 100% recommend this to any thrill seekers who want to experience more than just your typical haunted house. Trust me, this is something that you won't be able to compare to any haunted house you'll ever do. You'll most like brag about this experience to everyone you know, like I did for the past 2 years! In 2015, this experience was done at the Waipahu Plantation but its being held at a new undisclosed venue this year, which makes it even better - I love surprises! I booked this ON my birthday - so I'm super super excited!!! I seriously can't wait!!
