My Dad had his own short-but-sweet opinions regarding some of the haunts we've reviewed, so I'm compiling them here for your enjoyment! Also, he offers his thoughts on one haunt whose review I never got around to publishing... so you can consider it the "official" review for the time being. 

Now, let's let Old Scratch do his thing! 

Second Opinion: Ghost Ship (Wildwood, NJ)

Picture
"Truly one of the best parts of this attraction was the facade - it really looked like an eerie abandoned ship right ON the pier. While the inside did have some authentic looking areas, many other areas fell short design-wise. There were clever gadgets and effects for fright, but the fright staff could have been more clever and effective."

Original review can be found here.

Second Opinion: Haunted Manor (Keansburg, NJ)

Picture
"This spook house looked like the real deal, very authentic inside and out. The route through the house was masterfully designed, making the inside appear to be much bigger than it was. The one-man spook staff did well, but a little more effort would have made the entire experience top notch."

Review: Dante's Dungeon (Wildwood, NJ)

Picture

​"This ride through hell was somewhat clever using lighting and mechanical creatures quite effectively. When combined with with the track pattern, some good frights were produced. As far as ride-throughs go, it was noteworthy."
