| - So, first of all, Screemers is CRAZY EXPENSIVE. It was $74.50 for my husband and I after tax, and since they don't take card, we had to use their ATM that had a stupid high ATM fee.
Anyway, once we got inside the building, we were a super disappointed. It was scarcely decorated with a small number of actors walking around scaring people. Seeing this place made us wish we braved the rain and went to Halloween Haunt at Wonderland instead.
They give you a ticket with all the attractions/mazes printed on it, and you get each maze crossed out as you do them, so you can't even do them more than once if you like a particular maze. Instead of playing scary music, heavy metal is blaring the whole time you are waiting in line and doing the mazes. The mazes themselves were cheaply decorated and I felt like all the actors were on lunch or something, because there were barely any. The mazes themselves are built in shipping containers or something, just an FYI.
But what really ruined our experience is that one of the few actors there broke character to chastise me. We got separated from our friends and one of them was super scared, so I thought I would hide behind something to scare her. I didn't realize anyone was around because well, THEY HAD SO FEW ACTORS. So one of the actors came out of hiding and went "yea, please, just do my job for me why don't you..." and when I turned around to see who was talking to me, I knocked over a prop and she then went "yea, and go breaking everything while you're at it... ok, cool..." and I was really uncomfortable. When my friends caught up with us, this actor goes "hey, just so you know, I was going to scare you guys, but your friend ruined the surprise..." and then my friends were joking around going "haha, way to go, Kat." to which she replied (but sarcastically and rudely) "yea, way to go, Kat, ruin the whole thing for everyone."
Like, EXCUSE ME?! I didn't pay $35 so some teenager with an attitude problem could ruin my night. I tried to relay this back to Screemers and I can see they read my message, but didn't care to reply.
