I don't do haunted houses...usually. Genna and her Big Friend (older) V thought it would be fun to go to a haunted house. They were gracious enough to invite Trey and Kylie. Steve was going to take them but he ended up with the flu for his weekend so I decided I would take them. I was going to just sit in the van and read. Then I thought I should concur some fears. They promised it wouldn't be so bad.
We had dinner at Don and Millie's and started the drive to Eagle Haunts at sunset. Turns out you can't see the raceway quite as well in the dark as you can when the sun is out. I drove us all the way to Elmwood before I realized we had gone too far. Thank God for GPS!
The parking lot was scary. That should have been my sign to turn around. But we met a nice man who gave us coupons for $2 off so that was a bonus!
We met this guy while standing in line.
The first haunted house (under the bleachers) was really scary. Here's the thing though, when your kid screams, that "mom" thing kicks in. Great adrenaline to make it through the crazed tour! At least that one!
We rode a bus to get to the 2nd one. The bus driver was standing up at one point. That was terrifying! They drop you off in the dead of night and make you go through torture. There were zombies, booby traps, clowns with chainsaws! We had to go down a tube slide on a potato sack...IN THE DARK! The kids left me in the maze of scary clowns. Left me! At one point someone, I won't name name's but it wasn't me, screamed and declared "I peed my pants a little!"
They give you cool 3d glasses to wear! How bad can it be? HORRIBLE!!! TERRIFYING AND HORRIBLE!!! Things kep screaming jumping out of the walls and screaming at me. Floating bodies coming at you in the fog with screaming mouths. It was insanely scary!
It was SO MUCH FUN!! This experience will be one that I will remember forever. I'm not sure I'd go again but this is a moment I wouldn't give back for anything in the world.
