The haunted hayride was put together with a coherent story much better than the haunted house, but we actually had more fun in the haunted house. Both were a good time and our group of 6 didn't have very long waits for either attraction. We got there shortly after they opened at 7. Make sure you bring cash because they do not accept cards!
The hayride and the haunted prison were pretty cool. The website hypes the place up beyond what you actually get there but i didn't hate it. It wasn't an experience I need to repeat tho.
My boyfriend and I just came here last night and overall it was very fun and scary. We did the Unknown 2.0 first which exceeded my expectations because I've come here multiple times and that attraction was not always the scariest. Last night I was pretty scared even though I don't have many fears! Then, we did the Prison of the Dead and I have always been scared to go in! It definitely was fun especially because we went with a group of 3 girls who were so scared and one of them was clinging onto me the whole time! I even screamed multiple times and I don't scream often. Then, we went on the Zombie Safari Hayride for our last attraction and I usually LOVE the hayrides, for example we just went on the Haunted Hayride at Field of Screams and it was so fun! This time at Shockoberfest, it was very boring. We went with a very small group and the driver drove so fast that the actors didn't jump out til we almost past the scene that they were hiding in! The only time I was scared was when my boyfriend scared me because it was so boring! But, the atmosphere is great and I loved how spaced out each attraction was!
I drive an hour and a half to check this place out. I got there early anticipating long lines . I first stopped at the bathroom and it was disgusting, no soap and only cold water and no paper towels . That made me wonder if the employees who serve food there use the same bathrooms. I purchased tickets for the hayride and the jail. $60 for 4 tickets . Definitely a little overpriced. I waited until dark to go on the hayride hoping it would be better , so me and my date walked around to see what they had to offer . A few carnival games that nobody was playing and a few places to grab food that definitely didn't look appealing or clean. They seemed very unorganized and some of the employees were kind of rude. Once it was dark we waited on the line for the hayride. It was a short line but they had a band and it was horrible! This is a family place and you have a death metal band that's excessively loud with a lead singer that is screaming . There were small children online that actually looked frightened. The hayride itself was cheesy . There weren't enough actors and some of them weren't even in costume . The jail wasn't to bad . It's self guided and was actually put together very well. This place didn't seem to crowded when I was leaving at 8:30 so I'm guessing some of the other attractions weren't as good .
I attended this event with my brother and we both had a great time. The hayride had tons of cool special effects and enthusiastic actors. The haunted house (Unknown 2.0) was very professional, like a world class major theme park, and was extremely creepy. The Prison attraction was intense. Plenty of jumps and screams and top notch props and makeup. I’m looking forward to seeing what they add next year.
