If youve ever contemplated visiting Lake Hickory Haunts, but have yet to actually venture out to do so - DO IT! I guarantee you theres no place like it in North Carolina or elsewhere. In just seven seasons, theyve evolved into the best scream park around, offering an experience youll be hard-pressed to find anywhere else. From the second you make contact with delightful reps at an awesomely-decorated ticket booth to a harrowing breathless escape back into their midway, you know youre experiencing something special. Their sets transport you into another world altogether, combining unique scents and visuals with harrowing interactive elements (if you dont believe me, just wait til you get to their new Descent attraction) that launch your experience into a whole other stratosphere. Combine that with actors who are just as skilled at dragging a scream out of you as they are a good laugh, and youre in for an amazing night of frights you wont soon forget. On that same note, youll find that the makeup and costuming here will blow your mind! If the idea of waiting in a midway gives you pause, fear not. The midway here promotes an amazing welcoming family atmosphere, with interesting experiences and games that serve to prep you well for the horrors waiting in the main event, not to mention tasty concessions and fire pits where fresh-chilled victims can warm up and swap stories. Their midway also serves as a stage for the coolest monster parade around, and provides plenty of room for monsters to stalk and tease their prey before they face the haunt itself! I also have to note the amazing customer service here. The staff, from the owner himself to the parking attendants and everyone in between, go out of their way to make you feel so welcome. The level of hospitality here is off the charts - these folks love serving their community as much as they love scaring it, and it shows. Bottom line - you NEED to experience this place. Lake Hickory Haunts is a must-see at any cost!

Lake Hickory Haunts is my favorite haunted attraction... I visit about 10 haunts per year, and LHH has been my favorite every year for the past 4 years! It is definitely a must see for any haunt goer. This year they have truly outdone their self. The tour is much longer than ever before, while keeping their sets, detail, and acting on point in every inch of the attractions. It is worth the drive from anywhere! I will be coming out for the black out evevent on Nov 4 and 5th.

I've been in the haunt business for 27 years and these guys take the cake! They really care about their guests and providing a quality haunt atmosphere. Their signature characters like Boss, Lilith, Cannabelle and Chuckles are fantastically well thought out and excellently acted. If you're looking for a great time, go check them out!
