Beth, Danny, Angel and I headed out to Brea, CA on Halloween night hoping for a couple of screams and a lot of laughs. Beth and I walked away with sore throats and promises of nightmares. Ok, I'm being a little dramatic, but in all seriousness, this place rocked it!
As we walked up to the old converted theater, we could hear the terrified screams of girls and feel the fright in the air. To begin with, before we even got our tickets, we had to walk through a dark, foggy outdoor hallway of sorts, very creepy. There was even dark, tense music playing. There were about 5-6 monsters just waiting for victims to scare. The coolest thing was that on top of the structure they had built, a monster was scaring and spraying people with water. awesome! Others outside included the slider with the chainsaw(!!), the Sheriff who kept shooting the zombies, and the creepy girl with crutches. This group worked both lines relentlessly and kept scaring the whole time we were there.
There were 2 mazes this year: Silent Hill and Fear. We checked out Silent hill first, and were scared beyond belief. The best part about these smaller haunted attractions is that they spread out the guests, so that you're not crowded or rushed through the scare areas. Every single room got a scream out of someone in our group. Totally creepy. I never played the video game or saw the movie, but if this maze has anything to say about it, I'm guessing it's pretty scary!?
The Fear maze was really unique. We had to work as a group to get through different stages of the maze, working together or we wouldn't advance. For example, the very first test was two exposed wires that we were supposed to grab. Kinda trippy, cuz we expected to get shocked... instead we got a scare. Loud screeching noise and a blast of air, and we were on to the next room. This continued with different tests and psychological scares, including a hall of hanging pigs, a claustrophobic balloon hallway, and a room where we each had to reach into a tube in the wall and press a button at the end. Freaking awesome!! The creepy music in this maze is courtesy of Jon Autopsy, trippy, freaky, perfect =)
I will most definitely return next year to see what they come up with. Great job to the entire crew, every single monster and talent was on top of their game. Check them out: www.sinisterpointe.com
They took this just before the Silent Hill maze, shocking us with another blast of air and loud screeching. I love that Beth and I are screaming, Angel has a giddy smile, and Danny looks like he didn't even notice anything. Haha =)
