The 2013 OniHaunts Haunted Attraction (and Dark Rides) Awards
Oh yeah. It’s Haunted Attraction award time. Read all of my reviews from last season here. The award judging is handled like this: 1. We must be confident in recommending this Haunted Attraction to a friend. 2. We must feel that we would be OK with visiting this year’s incarnation again. In video game terms,…

Costumed Mickey Mouse talks now. No, seriously.
When I first heard that the costumed Mickey Mouse character in Florida’s Magic Kingdom was going to talk, I thought it was kind of silly. I had seen an old promo for it and it was creepy. This? Not so much. This is phenomenal: You can meet him in the front of the Magic Kingdom…

Devil’s Due devil baby prank makes me wonder why I don’t work at this ad agency
This is totally something I would pitch (I know, you are totally surprised) at an agency if I had free reign to be awesome. Up till now I’ve only had the opportunity to work on campaigns that had considerably less LOLZ. These guys rigged up an animatronic remote control devil baby carriage and drove it…

Pittsburgh, PA: The Scarehouse 2013 review
I never would have guessed that my old hometown would have a world-class haunted attraction. Maybe that’s because this was put in after I moved away from Pittsburgh to go to college in New Jersey. When I lived in Pittsburgh there weren’t many options. This was probably compounded by the fact that I was…

Wharton NJ: Haunted Scarehouse review 2013
Oni and I visited the The Haunted Scarehouse in Wharton, New Jersey as review guests. This season was their second year of operation, which means it had it’s first year when Superstorm Sandy struck New Jersey hard, not a great first season for any new haunt. Well, it’s obvious that they have some very…

Thoughts on haunt season, huge flaming boobs, and registration is already open for my convention this August
We have a few more reviews being written, but for the most part, OniHaunts Season is a wrap for 2013. For the first time since last Winter I was able to get a good amount of sleep and I am in my own apartment. There won’t be that much of a break before I go…

Akron, Ohio: Haunted Schoolhouse and Lab Review 2013
The Haunted Schoolhouse and Lab is a priceless gem among haunted attractions. We believe that it is the currently longest continuously running haunted attraction in the US, marking it’s 40th season this year. When we visited it last year we were so struck by it that we gave it our “National Treasure” award. The…

Busch Gardens Tampa Howl-O-Scream 2013 Review
Oni and I visited Busch Gardens Tampa Howl O Scream as media guests this year. We’ve been to the Tampa Howl-O-Scream every year since 2009 (you can see all of our other reviews on our Haunted Attraction review portal), and we’ve been very happy with the event every time we’ve gone. This year was no…
