I did not even know this existed in Memphis! What a shame, because it has been around for awhile. Tucked away off Perkins, just south of the 240 loop it sits in what was a huge Toys R Us. As of the time of this review it contains four haunts, one stand alone and the other is a three in one. ALL are fantastic! For $30 you get admission to one haunt but for a mere $5 more you get all four, so why wouldn't you do that? In fact for $15 more you get VIP line access to all four, which on a busy night would be totally with it! They make a conscious effort to distribute patrons between the two cues so wait time is minimized but of course on a busy night you could wait for a bit if you choose GA. Regardless, these are worth the wait. These are theater quality sets, with well trained acting staff, and professional makeup. We chose the behind the scenes tour for $70 per ticket which included VIP access to all four haunts, once we finished and the lights went out. I didn't know what to expect, but Ethan, who is the creative director, gave us our tour and it was also fantastic! We arrived about two hours prior to lights out with the tour start time scheduled to start at around 1.5 hours prior to lights out. Ethan started early and went long! We toured the main haunt and were shown things like how the scare boxes worked, the lighting, how the sets were built, he talked about the mechanics behind the sets, we saw makeup and costuming as the actors were getting ready as well as the workshop. He also walked us through the other three haunts albeit with less detail as opening was approaching! I'd been through professional haunts before so I knew they were high quality but I had absolutely no idea how much went into producing and running one! Very impressive. The tour is well worth it but at the very least you need to experience their work. Parking is good, well lit, monitored by MPD, security is employed starting in the parking lot so, while we went in the back door and bypassed all that, I could tell it was super safe.

A haunted house on Christmas? Who knew?So I went to check it out. As I drove up to park. I noticed it was packed with those looking for a good scare. But that didn't make parking very difficult at all. As there was plenty of available space. I do hate the long walk to the side of the building. But hey it's all good. I'm just there to get a fright myself. The line was fairly long to get into this spectacular attraction but i'll cover it more in this review. It took me about 15 minutes to get in so I may get my picture with Santa Claus and Krampus. It was quite amusing to get my picture with Santa as to take a trip down memory lane but with an adult Twist of humor as he holding as bottle of Jack & I'm holding myself a Crown Royal. After that I got my picture with Krampus. Whose costume & makeup work was on point. I really enjoy this to as I am a big fan of the movie Krampus.I have to say the acting of the characters was fairly fun as they did spook me & gave me chills as I went through each one of the houses. Their makeup was on point & looked very professional. As if it was done by a movie studio. You should check out the creepy elf I have a pic of. I was impressed with the art work of the props & the interaction of some as you have to push bee hives out of your way in the Forrest Of Fear. I was also impressed with the backgrounds for each house. The background designers who created didn't leave out much detail. I also have to mention the sets are excellent. Each of the 5 houses I've went through felt real especally the Morgue of the Insane asylum and the hillbilly Shack. I was impressed with how everything was ran created & organized. I was so impressed I'll be going to every haunted house they'll hold. Reguardless if it's Halloween or Christmas.Be sure to be on the lookout for their other planned haunted houses throughout the year through the FB page or their website listed on the page.Be sure to Like them on FB & Tell a friend.https://www.facebook.com/hauntedweb/

This year was a great year for combining horror and Christmas. We watched Nightmare Before Christmas, Krampus, and visited this place. I decided since I had done so much Halloween-themed stuff this year and since it's my favorite holiday that this should be my 1000th review! This was a lot of fun! We came for the Christmas house and got to meet Drunk Santa and Krampus. They make a huge point of making sure you know NOT to touch the actors. I didn't get why until I was walking through and found myself inches from some of them quite a few times. A few of the jump scares got me but otherwise I had fun walking through. No one in our group was a screamer, sadly, but we all still enjoyed ourselves in our little group. The house itself is a bunch of differently themed houses all connected together. They tell you you won't need to go through any doors which is helpful because there were times I was stuck on where to go and had to shimmy around the actors to avoid touching them. I'm not sure if I was supposed to stop and watch their act but if I had my friends behind me wouldn't have been able to see. We thought the actors did a pretty good job. One guy was so committed he even fell over hard enough my friend asked if he was ok. At one point, we made an inappropriate joke about one of the mannequins and my husband accidentally pointed at one of the actors and thought we were talking about her. She went with it and he was embarrassed and it was a funny moment we teased him about for a while. My friend noted that there's usually more actors for the Halloween house but that otherwise it was a pretty similar setup to that. The gore was pretty gruesome in some parts but I think Universal Studios already destroyed my nausea to it because I didn't get sick this time. The only thing I was bummed about was that there wasn't as much of a story as the lady up front said there was. She said if we pay attention we can figure it out but I didn't really see much beyond an asylum gone nuts. Would've been fun for there to be more but it was still a fun experience and we'll be back for Halloween!

Cannot say enough good things about this haunt! Line moves quickly, get there EARLY! The haunt is scary and design is awesome. They also have 3 escape rooms that are fun to do while you wait. Also plenty of places to sit if you are old like me. Full concessions at the entrance. Definitely an affordable night with the family.

Security is a joke. The actors are also a joke. They're mainly just standing there and weren't terrifying at all. Lines are full of skippers and no one to acknowledge it either. Total waste of money.Will not be back.

So far this sux!!! Long line outside, then no purse so no money to buy food or drink. We've been here since 7.....it's 10 and no closer to the HOUSE ITSELF!!!!! Line skippers everywhere and not enough security. Pay for fast pass but that's ridiculous price. Totally disappointed

The haunt was fantastic, but the path to get there. Miserable! 1. Bought tickets online. There were no other instructions. 2. Get to gate, approach security. Have to return to vehicle to store purse...no mention on website about this!3. Wait in another long line to exchange paper ticket for real ticket. Um no mention at beginning to skip this line to the right and go forward to special window.4. We did pay extra for fast pass, best decision! Website could have WAY more real information. Go, it's worth it but know it's a bit disorganized, parking is scary too.So my suggestion:Buy tickets online, wear pants with deep pockets so you don't loose your keys or cell phone. Take print out, skip ticket line go to the far right go to last window, buy the fast pass and look for the VIP signs to skip the big line. We bought the full package, the first "house" is 4 rolled into 1, then the 5th house is 3D and crazy.

It's just lines..... would say how the exhibit is but been waiting in lines for over an hour and a half and still no end in site. Total waste of time and money. If this place is the best our standards are way too low in this city.
