PS- the smell scent can be bought, we have it to make our haunted house musty smelling too.

PS- the randoms people mention such as the man writing a book- that is a famous horror author named Edgar Allen Poe. Someone said why is a random man chasing a girl with a knife? Well, that is JACK the Ripper, a real life London serial killer. Every window has an exert hinting or telling exactly what the exhibit is about. Clues for the old horror may be written too. If you don’t know, google it. Also again, this is old school for the most part, even Micheal Myers’s is 1978, Jason 1980, Chucky 1980’s all older horror. The classics all have a place there. The business name Frankenstein is a hint to classic. Just because you don’t get it doesn’t mean it sucks. Before reviewing something educate, be sure you didn’t misunderstand or have a lack of insight.

I’m happy to see mostly positive reviews on this nostalgic, old horror based wax museum. This place is just great! The reviews stating how old, outdated, “wax looking,”, smelly, cheesy, non scary, etc.. Well it is old, it is a WAX figure museum and smell of must goes with the territory, and they add the smell too. The Frankenstein title should be an inkling of the old school horror attraction. Even as a kid I was scared and still am in the darker halls. It’s dark, creepy and just great for a walk though as it supposed to be, it’s not a jump scare, modern type attraction. Some people understand this, some don’t. As for the flashing lights, yes, there is a sign. As for props not working, they all do, there is a 45 second delay and says that. The staff stand there as they are told to, maybe there has been issues so they decided that is best. As For the darkness, yes it’s dark, it’s a horror attraction. Why take the time to bash someone’s small business as you found it to be corny, outdated, non scary..mentioning props don’t work yet didn’t follow simple instruction. A review is based of fact and opinion, I read many unreasonable gripes. Remember now, this has been in Lake George since the 70’s, the props are based around OLD HORROR mostly. This is a wax museum not a jump out horror stop. The people saying some props are too scary such as the electric chair scene..well, it’s up to you to make the judgment for your child. Yes, some are gory, realistic, some are factual events. Someone said their 10 year old wasn’t scared (slow clap), ok..he can go to many other places. He doesn’t get it, that’s ok. Anyway, since I was a kid I have loved this place and made sure my son got to see it, he now drags me back as much as he can. In fact he makes a wax museum ( he calls it that) in our basement each Halloween, basing the off of house of Frankenstein! Overall, people should be able to at least appreciate the work put into this place and know it is a Lake George staple. Please always stay open! So many love it!
