Jared’s Top 5
- Universal’s Monsters Unmasked: From starting to end, it gave the most elegant and vintage feel throughout the house. The house used elevation tactics for scares, high quality theming and environmental effects for the storyline.
- Stranger Things 4: Using a sound stage, Stranger Things 4 had great use of callbacks to the show along with highlighted scenes from plot details. Great use of effects, especially the fight between Eleven and Vecna.
- The Darkest Deal: The façade in the queue line depicted a full haunting illustration on the theming of the house. The set design, scare actor’s engagement and transitions to each room resulted a cohesive quality-made house.
- The Last Of Us: The house consisted of direct scenes taken place in Pittsburg. From scare actors mimicking original gameplay characters to using clicker’s call sounds on the background made it a spine chilling experience.
- Dr. Oddfellow Twisted Origins: Taken place at a vintage circus, this house was creepy and innovative by using lightly toned lighting and sounds. Highlighted scenes such as the lion coming out of the cage and Dr.Oddfellow’s cameos were well presented.
