  Email Verified Best Haunted Attraction in the State!!

  This is by far THE BEST haunted attraction I have ever been to! I don't think I have been to a play where I have nearly peed my pants, fallen to the ground from fright, AND laughed at the actor's entertainment. The actors are not only scary but are entertaining as well! They all take their jobs seriously and it shows! What makes this place so scary is that there are times when the actors are just entertaining, so it lulls you into a false security, only for some other unseen person to scare you to pieces. The atmosphere is AWESOME and I love the variety. They also use pyrotechnics which is super cool. The makeup, masks, and costumes were all top-notch. If I hadn't known better, I'd say some of that was real!!! The long lines are worth the wait because the actual haunt is almost an hour long! It is outdoors and can get cold, so bring warm clothes! If you forget a jacket though, they do sell Haunted River hoodies. Overall 15/10 experience and I would go there again!

  Best Idaho haunt

  Have been going for years and years and always the best 20 I’ve ever spent. With how long it is it makes up for long lines. Haunters are amazing and hilarious. Still a pretty scary one though!

  Email Verified Haunted river

  It was great fun, well put together, plenty scary. However the online tickets didn’t give you any advantage to wait times in the lines. We had tickets for 8:30, arrived there at 8:00 and entered the river at 10:15. As much fun as it was, I was ready to be done by the time we entered. Just know your time slot tickets don’t mean much.

  TOTALLY RECOMMEND

  My family and I decided to come here. We have heard amazing reviews about it so we decided to go for it! We waited in line for about 2 hours and it was totally with it. Every. Single. Person. In our group peed their pants. FYI don’t run during it, the workers find great joy in popping out when you least expect it to freak you out... I highly recommend this place! Totally worth the money and the. Best atmosphere I’ve ever been to.

  Email Verified Scary yet beautiful walk

  As you walk along the river and over canals, you can't help but admire all of the small details that make this haunt so real. I'm a seasoned haunt goer, and this attraction made me jump so hard I knocked our lantern over! Highly recommend, will definitely become a staple of our area.

  AMAZING!!!!

  By far the best haunt I’ve been to in years! They created the ultimate haunted house experience from the hayride in until you leave; every detail from the decor to the set up to the costume/makeup and commitment of the scarers was so immaculate! Best $20 I’ve spent all year! Honestly made this Halloween fantastic! 1000% recommend!!!

  Watch out for the witch’s mother in Menan

  What an outstanding setting with very substantial infrastructure of near Disney quality. Each stop is themed and there is more there than you can possibly see with your dim light which raises the scare factor awaiting the next startle. You can’t tell the real people from the statues until it is too late and the witch’s mother’s cackle will have you laughing all the to the next foggy bridge. Don’t know how the crutch man does it on all fours, along with some pretty tall monsters. Lots of fires to warm your hands so dress warm and don’t let the cold scare you off.

  Email Verified Great with great potential

  I thought it was so fun! The beginning half was amazing and full of so many scares. The second half kind of missed the mark with less scares or areas that were not scary. I really enjoyed the feel and the overall look. I’m excited to see where it goes in the future!

  Email Verified Watch out for the mother witch!

  What a haunt! This is a large attraction in a fantastic setting. We’re talking Disney quality infrastructure and unique themes at every stop. Is it a real person or a statue, you can’t tell until they scare your pants off. And the witch’s mother will have you laughing all the way back across the foggy river. Some mighty tall monsters and a crutch man walking on all 4’s. There’s so much you have to pay close attention in the dark but still can’t take it in. Lots of fires to warm your hands so dress warm and don’t let the cold stop you.
