    Not scary. Moved room to room while actors yelled and went through their scripts. Actors were good. But it was boring and disappointing.

    This location was not enforcing COVID guidelines whatsoever.

There was no spacing out of parties while in line, and no one enforcing guests to keep their masks on and wear them properly. There is also no sanitation between parties going on in the house and are many parts of the maze that you need to touch things to feel your way through, and you just know have been touched by hundreds of people before you. The only thing I can say positive that they were doing was spacing parties out adequately within the maze giving ample room for groups to walk through without bumping into the party ahead of them. The haunted house itself was also less than satisfactory. While in line "actors" would walk around the guests but some wouldn't even be in costume. There was one person just in some dark lipstick and a wig and a raincoat who kept screaming at the crowd to "dance" and I only know she was part of the haunt because she eventually popped out to scare us while walking through the house. We also saw one of the clown actors walking through the parking lot without their clown mask. The house gave me mixed feelings. Some scenes were very decorated and looked like they took lots of time to put together while other parts it looked like all the decor had been purchased from walmart. All in all, I was definitely more scared about catching COVID here than I was of the haunted house itself.

    Wow! This place is the definition of horror. My fiance and I are huge, huge fans of the horror…read moregenre. He is very judgemental when it comes to haunted houses and I was surprised to hear no criticism out of him. This was my second year attending. We went on a Sunday and only waited 20 minutes to get in. It was raining but they kept tents above everyone waiting in line. The rain didn't stop the party from happening. Actors still ran around frightening guest. The DJ was pumping jams the entire time. They sell food, drinks and merchandise too but be prepared to spend quite a bit. The haunted house was full of detail and each room had something special to scare you to the fullest. We were in there for a while. Sorry, I couldn't keep track. I was terrified lol. Definitely got our 45 dollars worth. Then after almost loosing my voice and feeling relieved that it was over, we were guided to the second haunted house. Yes I said it, A SECOND HAUNTED HOUSE! and it's already included in your admission. The second one is a 3D haunt with glasses. Very trippy. Full of balloons and confusion and CLOWNS! MWAHAHA! Try to avoid Saturdays in October. One of the attendings working the line said there was a 4 hour wait. I remember that too because I went on a Saturday last year. And avoid coming here drunk on your ass. They won't tolerate drunk or high people who are causing scenes. I saw them kick out lots of people in line who were making a ruckus. I gave this place 5 stars because it deserves it. Their haunt is one of the best. Try to avoid Saturdays unless you don't mind the long wait. Although waiting in line is definitely half of the experience. Dress warm and wear comfy shoes. Bring extra spending money for food, drinks, and souvenirs. Avoid bringing kids under 12 unless they love scary things. Don't pay for parking at the casino, there's free parking a block away. Definitely the best haunted house in Illinois!

    The rooms and props are all amazing, but some of the actors really needed work. I am writing this…read morereview from the first day it opened so I will give them some grace, but one of the actors said to me, "your perm is pissing me off" I don't have a perm. I told him my hair is naturally curly and he said "you're a natural liar". To me that was not entertaining, it just felt hostile and hurtful, not funny. It turned me off from this experience big time. Almost every actor inside the haunted house was screaming and it got very repetitive. I was hoping to see some more interesting or clever acts, not just screaming in my face over and over.

It…read morefelt very rushed with way too many props and you're put in groups in the group we were with were a bunch of middle school girls who were trying to have conversations with every actor and they were in front of us so it just ruined the experience. They would scare or try to scare the people in front of us and then we would already know what was coming. It was very predictable. Definitely not worth more than $10. The actors were very fruity way too many props and costumes that were not even close to scary. I kept a straight face and didn't jump once. There are plenty of other haunted houses in the area I would definitely would not recommend this one.

Any downers I've seen in previous reviews are likely going into this with an attitude of a fortress wall, which isn't fair to this place. Sure your group influences your time, but you can easily go to the back and space out a little! This is not the haunts fault, they do a good job of scaring the front and back of the group. You've got to go to a haunted house ready to be spooked and to have fun, if you do that here, you will have an amazing time! Just saying, this place deserves way more credit & I'm disappointed at the inaccuracies of the reviews. Also this is a local small business, so huge kudos to their efforts. I've been to haunted houses all over the country and for the last 20+ years almost yearly, so take my word for it.. this place is putting in the work to make it cool for people. The scenery is insanely cool & there's so much attention to detail. The diversity and the length of the experience sold it for us. The bang for your buck is there; we were there longer than any other we've done, probably 1.5 hours with the extra haunt experience and hanging by the bonfire with drinks. So many textures, lighting, effects, animatronics, different themes, probs, actors, and even smells while you're being led through many many fields, houses, buses, warehouses etc! The actors were also scary yet didn't make me uncomfortable like others have before, they knew the line and didn't cross it. I loved how dedicated they were, some in cages or on the floor, some laying on the beams of the building, some blending in with the room or other props. We went on Halloween night & everyone we saw there had tons of fun too. Way to go, and thank you Screamin Acres! We'll see you next year.

    I'm the last person who should be reviewing a haunted anything as I can't handle even the most…read moreinnocuous ghost stories enjoyed by tots (e.g. was totally freaked out by Wallace & Gromit in The Curse of the Were-Rabbit). So, the physicality of enclosures designed to terrify adults is just not something that interests me. However, I couldn't be more enthused about this bit of local flavor: Every October, a family in the sleepy town of Roselle sets up three big tents in their front yard and crafts within them a truly excellent Halloween experience for the community. We'd been noticing the tents for a while, but only started investigating them last year. I figured it was going to be the usual cutesy Halloween stuff, but no. The level of creepiness and goriness was such that I couldn't handle actually entering the tents, so I mostly looked on as my partner Wolf R. had a good time checking everything out. But even he got a little surprise at the end: While looking into the coffin in the last tent, he was spooked by a large vampire swinging down from above, and a second later, he was further startled by a person dressed in all black, including a black face mask, creeping up behind him. I'd have laughed if I wasn't so busy making sure nothing was creeping up behind me. This year I felt a bit more bold and decided to follow a whole group of little kids into the leftmost tent, themed like a haunted carnival with evil clowns. This ain't so bad, I thought, enjoying the creative clowns and even snapping a pic. And then, I don't even understand what it was, but the odd noises and spinning lights they'd set up conspired to get under my skin and I felt like I was going to totally lose it if I didn't retreat *immediately*. My god. The middle tent was the gory cannibalistic one, with zombies and body parts and -- well, I won't spoil it for you. It was so gross that I couldn't actually look at it long enough to take a picture. And this year, the last tent was themed like a haunted hotel with black lights. Nothing jumped out at my partner this time but he still loved it. As it turns out, the haunted house also promotes a good cause: They collect non-perishable food for the Bloomingdale Food Pantry. The family also accepts donations if you'd like to chip in to their haunted house efforts. I'm just hoping they'll do a set of friendly winter wondertents one of these Decembers :) Hours: According to the listing on this page (http://www.wlsam.com/calendar/default.asp?DATE=10/11/2012), they're open 6-10PM Thursdays through Sundays in October, with extended hours in the last week of October.
