I don’t like how they treated me at the audition ! On August 16, 2025, I went to Schmitts town to audition to be a scare actress. Let me tell you the audition was very shady and weird . When I first got there, I don’t know where the audition was being held. There was a guy in a black truck. I don’t know what his name was but I forgot . I asked him to roll down the window and I asked him where is the audition being held? Kelley the acting manger his wife was sitting next to him. I don’t know if it was his wife or his coworker. He replied in such a rude way saying “ it’d in the parking lot you got to wait”. He said it in a rude way. And I replied with “ oh ok thank you “. I looked at my friend who drove me and I was like what is his problem? I let it go . Then when the audition started Kelley and The tattoo bald guy was treating me very poorly . Kelley asked what our names were and she wrote it down . The first part of the audition we had to act possessed . When it was my turn, she completely forgot my name , but remembered the others name perfectly. Which that’s ok at first I let it go and didn’t think much of it. Then the second part of the audition we had to act like a hillbilly killer. And again when I got to my turn Kelley was like “ what’s your name “ in a very rude way. so I repeated my name. Again, she remembered the others names perfectly. Again, I didn’t think much of it. Then, for the third part of the audition, we had to do a freestyle. Again, when it came to my part, Kelley was like “ sorry what’s your name “ again, I repeated my name and she responded in a very condescending way “ I don’t remember names good “ but she remembered everyone else’s name perfectly when they had their turn . She was so nice to the other people who auditioned , but she was so rude to me. The more I thought of it my gut was telling me she was doing it on purpose. It seems like they have their favorites here . The way she was treating me was horrible. The tattoo guy I don’t know if it was her husband that was rude to me when I asked him a question where the audition was , he was laughing. Then the audition ended . The tattoo guy gave us a form to fill out . The tattoo guy gave everyone else the right form and gave me the wrong form on purpose. He looks at my form and says in a very dismissive rude way “ oh your paper doesn’t have that question must be only yours “ . That’s when I knew he did it on purpose. Again, he said it in a very dismissive rude way. I looked at the others paper and they have the right questions and words. I don’t know what their problem is. I don’t know if they know me from professional wrestling when I used to be a professional wrestler . I don’t know why they treated me so poorly. So if you’re looking for a job here, then go somewhere else. I promise there is way better haunts out there you can audition for. I felt dismissed. I felt disrespected ! The way they were treating me was completely unprofessional ! I’m hurt ! Never again will I audition for this place ever! And by the way, when I audition for this place, the tattoo guy looked very familiar , but I didn’t think much of it. So again, I don’t know why they treated me the way they treated me. I don’t know if they know me from Wrestling and that’s why they hate me ? I know they’re gonna reply to this review and saying that they did nothing wrong and “ I don’t know what your talking about “. Because I dealt with people like this at plenty of auditions. But I wish I recorded the way...
Read moreFirst off, I would like to say that I am a huge advocate for Schmitt's Farms, I always enjoy their farm products and service. It pains me to say that they should stick to the farm business and forget about trying to be a haunt, or truly step up their game if they want to be taken seriously. We waited an hour and a half to enter the corn trail. Now, normally I would have gotten there early as a long wait is expected typically for haunt attractions or would have bought a fast pass had they offered one. However, they were taking reservations I assume because of covid, and they specifically stated that if you have a certain time appointment, check in is at that specific time. We are all used to this procedure as a way of life now, so I didnt think twice that there would be an issue, I was actually pleased to see that they were taking preventative measures due to covid and was looking forward to a more streamlined experience. How disappointed I was upon arrival.
After waiting the hour and a half, we went through the most pathetic corn trail you could imagine. The only positive was that it was a full moon out and it was nice to walk through the corn stalks and take in nature, the actors were so bad, they actually ruined it, I would much have preferred it without them. I really would like to say something positive about these so called "world class actors and top of the line props", however it seemed as if they hired a bunch of last minute shy awkward people that had only 2 costume options, a Jason mask or a camo ghillie suit, and were told to stand there and walk by you every 2 minutes or so, not scary at all. One of the actors reaked of weed and two others we saw smoking cigarettes without a care that we were there, it was very awkward at times and down right unprofessional. The props may have been nice, but the majority of them were in the pitch dark so we couldnt even see what was there, and the ones that were illuminated were very minimalist.
When we came out of the corn trail, we were sent over to the haunted house, and were told it would be another hour and a half wait. There was no way we were wasting more of our time after that experience, so we left. The haunted house may be much better than the trail was, but I am very skeptical to go waste more of my time waiting for some let down experience. We let the staff know our thoughts and they recommended we try coming back in the early hours on a Friday.
For future patrons, I hope the company can change the instructions on their booking page saying to come earlier than their time slot or offer a fast pass option. Would have liked to see more props illuminated in the corn trail, more actors, and a better variety of costumes. And please monitor your actors'...
Read more180 minute total wait. Phoney 5 Star Reviews. Lowest quality experience I’ve had in 10 years of visiting haunts.
The maze had minimal actors, no theming, A minimal amount of random animatronics. The scares were lame. Midway through a random actor was smoking a cigarette in the area with smoke with the chainsaw actor. It was just so cheesy, unprofessional with the cheapest looking costumes and Jason masks that you get from Halloween shop. How could a place with so much notoriety be this bad?!
Had The lowest expectations possible as we visited October 5th, during the Covid age. This was lowest quality experience haunt I’ve been to in the last 10 years. That bad. If you click my profile, you’ll see most of my reviews are positive and I do my best to not say anything bad, but this place simply is taking advantage of its customers and somehow getting away with it.
I should’ve known it was a money grab when I saw Axe Throwing. When A haunt tries to diversify and add experiences they do not specialize in such as an escape room or axe throwing, it’s USUALLY a sign the place is a money grab instead of someone a place who focuses all their attention on making sure their haunt is great...
The only thing I can’t blame them for the was awful social distancing practice and customers not wearing their masks as the customers are to blame for that.
We made a reservation online for 9 PM and follow the instructions of specifically not arriving early. The line looked long and we decided to ask The folks at check in how long the wait would be. We were told 30 minutes to 40 minutes. It’s disappointing the staff was misinformed. It took a full 90 minutes to get into the maze which we were instructed we needed to do prior to the haunted house. We said, OK, we should cut them some slack because of Covid, but after going through the experience, what a joke! We had tickets for the haunt afterwards, but that line was also 90 minutes! So much for a reservation.. if I made my customers wait more than 10 to 15 minutes when they had a reservation, they would be livid.
With the kind of money that they charge, how long they have been in the industry, and in my experience of visiting other haunts during Covid, this place is out right taking advantage of all of the young people that need something to do. The maze was such a disservice to the Haunt industry and I am in shock that The line was that long considering how bad it was.
It sad that Long Islanders do not truly have an incredible haunt facility. I’ve visited a few others and were more or less satisfactory. This was by far the worst. Going to other haunts out of state will blow your mind!
