2010 Haunt Reviews: House of the Headless Horseman

House of the Headless Horseman
66803 Hwy 285
Pine, CO

This haunt isn't really working at the level of most of the other, more professional haunts I've been to this year, but they do a lot with their limited resources. Sets are simple in design and concept, but feature a tremendous amount of detail, which I suppose sums up the haunt as a whole, it's unambitious, but very well executed, particularly by the actors, who really give it their all and know to to more than just jump out and scream. The only real complaint I have is the very beginning, where a somewhat bored-seeming man read the introductory legend to us from a sheet of paper. Didn't do much to set the mood, that's for sure. If you happen to be way out in the middle of nowhere (that is to say, Bailey, CO), there's no excuse not to visit.

6/10
