Wharton, NJ--Haunted Scarehouse 2015 in Wharton, NJ is a consistently excellent Haunted Attraction. As 2014’s “Best Indoor Haunt” winner, the Haunt Hunters expected great things, and boy did they deliver! It all starts outside, where you buy tickets from the Haunted Scarehouse bus! While you wait on line, you have the option of purchasing a variety of haunt-inspired treats, handmade by Marge Vasquez of Lekker Sweets. And, working the line is famous Horror Writer/Director David Boyle. Boyle makes sure to fill everybody in on the disturbing history of the property and pump them up for what they are about to experience.
One of the several unique things about this Haunt is that it follows a storyline. Specifically, the gruesome storyline of the Hayden family and their history on the property. Once inside, you enter a time machine. This is not an easy thing to pull off, but Owner Steve Bailey actually managed to do so without it coming off as cheesy. Bailey takes his inspiration from Walt Disney himself, whose high-production value at his theme parks are esteemed the world over.
The Haunted Scarehouse continues with a staggering array of amazing sets, spread out across two floors. Another very difficult thing to pull off is making it feel as if you are actually outside. Again, Bailey succeeds. Each new twist and turn is designed to disorient you and attack all of your senses. In fact, you quickly realize that your senses can no longer be trusted, as even stationary props seem as if they are moving and you start to get a very tangible feeling that you very well might get hurt. All of this, coupled with the extraordinary cast of actors makes for an absolutely unforgettable experience.
David Boyle put it best when he said, “Not everyone realizes that they are about to see a show. These are very talented actors. This is performance art.” The one thing that always pushes this Haunt to the top is Bailey’s attention to detail. He works on his Haunt all year long, and leaves no stone unturned. His passion is evident in everything he does, from his hacked animatronics to the industry’s longest and best “Claustrophobia.” Boyle adds, “Nobody else is doing what Steve Bailey is doing.” With Bailey’s competitors getting better and better every year, Bailey’s game-changing innovations keep him a step ahead.
