would give a 4.5 if i could, only reason being is on busy nights (almost every night), they will send through up to 7 people even if your not in a group like that. i went with my friend, and we barely got scared the first 2-3 haunted houses.
we got to the new monster mansion, and respectfully asked the staff who lets you in if we could go in first. He said yes without a doubt, and we got so scared... best part of this creepyworld trip forsure! great new design for replacing the krampus which was no where near as scary as the new monster mansion is.
for the rest of the time, we still politely asked if we could go in first (or alone), every staff said yes! they wanted you to have a good time clearly. not to mention all the actors were funny too as they were scary. EX: I walked through the high school haunted house, and when i opened these strips, i saw this dude just staring at me, I let out a "oh, sht, f** you!!" (he didnt even try to scare me either), and he just said back "ahh, f*** you too!" which i thought was absolutely hilarious... such a great time here if your not getting sent in with huge groups. if you like a good scare, try asking to be let in first in the group and it will not disappoint!!
also, hayride was a bit underwhelming. it was still creepy, they got on the trailer and tried their best to scare the people on it, but the people were just not being panicked. it made it feel like it wasnt the experience it should be, but i also feel like it was just the crowd i was with on the ride. actors did a great job, just the people werent getting creeped out. its also a short ride. probably 5 minutes max. but the environment is still really cool, everything they put up made it feel like you were actually going through a creepy town with a bunch of different actors.
one more thing, do the jack-o-lantern spooktacular if you want to see some cool decorations and animatronics, bunch of pumpkins and cool lighting/environment. really did a great job on that. i think scarefest definitely puts the most amount of effort into creepyworld than they do the others, but that being said, still go see darkness and lemp brewery. i went to both last year and overall it was a bigger scare than creepyworld!
to sum it up, if your new to haunted houses or get scared very easily, go to creepyworld first. you will have a great time, whether someone brought you into it without wanting to go, or your thinking its not going to be great, STILL GO! amazing place and im glad i get to experience it every year.
WE LOVE SCARE FEST!!!!
