I am a volunteer here. And they have treated me and my children great. The actors are wonderful and so is everyone else. It makes me want every Friday to come faster. They treat you like family and I want to say a big thank you for showing us that. I went to the Dayton Scream Park the first night as a guest and I would rate it a 5 star from that night. Thats why I wanted to volunteer at that moment on. Thanks you all.

Dopey and Nightmare were AWESOME!!! Worth the trip!

We waited 2 hours in line which is why I give it 4 stars instead of 5. The scream park itself was so much fun. Took about 45-55 minutes to walk through. They send you in groups but you can separate into your own groups through the trails. Actors were hilarious, great people working there. Lots of security also. Overall best haunted house experience Ive been too! Definitely recommend

Excellent walk through haunted/scary park! Plenty of scares and some neat one of a kind oddities/personalities around every corner! The walk is about 20-30 min, and you do need to be a bit nimble/flexible etc. You do take some stairs and have to crawl through some spaces, but mostly doable. Go have fun!

IT WAS FUN LOVED THAT SCARY SCARECROW. AND 2 LITTLE CUTE GIRLS I DIDNT KNOW HUNG ONTO ME SCREAMING THE WHOLE WAY. I LOVED IT WILL DEFINITELY GO BACK I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT. THANK YOU MELISSA DALTON FOR TELLING ME ABOUT IT N MEETING ME AFTER. LOVE IT LOVE YOU.

This is by far the worst haunt Ive ever been to in my life. A humongous waste of money. I went to a haunt put on by a bunch of kids and teenagers that took 4 minutes to walk through and was planned in 30 days that was scarier than this one. There were hardly any actors in the entire thing and the few that were there did a horrible job. The costumes were terrible and the actors werent even trying. I will never return here and I recommend that no one else go either. The entire thing was just mazes made of skids and tarps. The few props that were around were horrible and outdated. I feel like Ive been robbed. I really dont understand how this haunt has a 4.3 star rating with 632 reviews. 45 minutes if my life that I will never get back.

I went with a group of nine ppl and had so much fun. This wasnt really scary to me but it was a fun atmosphere. I would recommend either coming early to get in for 20 but if you rather come later than its worth paying the 40 for VIP to get through the line with little to no wait plus you get a bonus attraction.

This is the worst haunted house Ive ever been to and I have a lot of them under my belt. The only way I can see the ratings being so high is if the volunteers and their family and friends are writing good reviews to cover the bad. Most could pull off better set, props and actors in their back yard. There were barely any actors and the ones that were there were kids and teenagers that didnt care. Dont waste your money or time. Beyond the fist few scenes where there are a couple trucks and campers it quickly turns into the majority of props throughout being garbage bags and skids.

Definitely one of the better haunted attractions Ive been to. Its long enough that you dont question rather or not you wasted your money, with a lot of cool props and scenes. The only reason I didnt give it 5 stars is because it needed more live monsters to interact with, but still a fun experience.

The clown on stilts will forever be my favorite clown at Dayton Scream Park! All 4 attractions were amazing too say the least & I enjoyed every minute of walking through. Hollywood was definitely my favorite attraction this year with not only Leatherface running people out of his scene but Freddy vs Jason started actually fighting!!! I’d give this place 6 of 5 stars if I could.

Tonight was the first night I have had gone here or even been to a haunted place myself and overall I had a BLAST!!! I screamed at every turn I made which was pretty amazing to say the least. Didn’t have to wait in line that long and the pricing is amazing, had great staff to help you in the right direction if you didn’t know where you were going on the path because not going to lie it’s very dark back there once you get further into it. Will DEFINITELY be coming back next year! Also there is strobe lights so if you are sensitive to that this place may not be suitable for you. I knew it gave me an instant headache as soon as I saw it but the staff at the very front give you a heads up about it before you go in! Just be cautious because I almost passed out from it tonight!!

Was a great time! Waited about 30 minutes to get in and took every bit of an hour to walk through it all. Performers were over the top in a good way as well. The rat maze could use some more jump scares, but I may have missed them.

Scares were pretty good. You could hear my less than manly shrieks on more than one occasion. There were some fun characters in there and a lot of stuff to look at. You can tell that some of the haunters really put a lot of passion into what theyre doing. If waiting for 2 hours with unenforced social distancing and people puffing cigarette smoke in your face throughout the entire line isnt your thing though, then perhaps find somewhere else to go.In all seriousness I dont regret going one bit, but some regulations about not smoking in a line full of people should be put into place. Maybe designate a smoking area? If regulations like that are already in place, they should be enforced. There were children in the line and no doubt people with medical conditions, such as asthma, that could be harmed by smoke like that. Fix this and Ill consider it 4.5 stars.

Not the best not the worst needs improvement but I will give it four stars because it’s super long and worth the money would like to see the mats taken out they’re hazardous and a little more kindness to customers the staff can be rude there because of how crowded it gets they need to plan ahead maybe open earlier or stay later and be more relaxed and set the tone. Parking is crowded needs improvement also the line needs a little improvement it’ takes longer than it should but it was worth seeing. No fights tonight and half the people wore masks and there was signs to encourage mask wearing however some didn’t follow the rules. Other than that I give it 4 stars the actors did their jobs well it needs some improvement with empty scenes and more arrows do you don’t get lost other than that not bad !

Two stars because the trail itself was kind of cool and took 20/30 minutes to walk through, but it was not scary at all and the night i went (a saturday) there were very few actors working, and the ones who were there put in minimal effort. it got confusing because we caught up with the group ahead of us and the group behind us caught up to us as well. all in all it was better than sitting at home i guess, but ultimately i did not feel it was worth the admission price and would not go back

Total waste. don’t waste your money. the actors were extremely rude and it just wasn’t scary. no jump scares, actors just waited for our group to walk by and scream in our faces. some actors just stood there silently as we walked by. the props were cheap and makeup was bad. all of the actors were either wasted drunk or high. the entire place smelled like cheap weed. overall don’t waste ur money

Ive been here in the past and would give it 4 stars, but not in 2020. My teen and friends went and no one was wearing masks, including the workers and there was no social distancing of groups. My teen left due to Covid exposure concerns. Its sad that this place cant follow simple guidelines so that people can still enjoy this time of year.

It’s so much fun! They are really nice to the actors and the customers! Saturday September, 26. 2020 was my first night as an actor and all of the other actors were so welcoming! If your a scaredy cat it’s still a place for you although we won’t go easy on your! Thanks Dayton scream I’ll be back soon!

It wasnt terrible, however they didnt space the groups out. Therefore, we kept running into other groups. Alot of kid actors too. Was some scary parts! Wait wasnt long either. We got there at 7:30, was out of the park by 9:00. Our group of five did have fun!

Went to the haunt tonight. Best time ever!!! Clowns were amazing with the chainsaws, little monsters jumping out at you. Then a scarecrow that looks like a prop until the last moment jumping out at you then twerking (best scare and highlight of the night). Hollywood was great. Even tho could not get out of maze which made it even better. The actors in hollywood was scary also. All staff did an amazing and wonderful job!! Bravo!!

Pretty great! Lots of fun & pretty scary! The actors were cool. Well worth the $20!

It was like having one haunt. It just continued. This is more mazes than anything. Wish I had known before going. No consession stands or a bonfire. To me Hanna haunted acres was a 5 star.

Worth the money. Go VIP and you wont regret this experience. Awesome spooks and great makeups

Absolute trash. Do not waste your money and time!! There was absolutely nothing scary about this place. No staff. And also the maze they set up was just a huge mess! No good directions on where to go, I do not recommend. Save your money!!!

Me and my friends came here last night and It was so fun i would highly recommend getting vip pass the chainsaw part was so cool and the actors were were amazing I told some it was my bffs birthday and they would say happy birthday but not break charecter so it. Gave that extra creepy vibe it took a whole hour which was so cool and it was so amazing and the staff are even better I would 10/10 reccomed this place

I went opening night this year and it was a terrible experience. They allowed people to cut lines. They didn’t enforce wearing mask. And the actual haunting part was terrible. They were in such a rush to get everyone out that they allowed large groups to go at a time and I mean 12-20 people. By the time my groups turn came around all the workers were tired. They didn’t even bother to scare my group like at all. One of the workers through water on us twice. Literally as we walked through workers were sitting on the floor eating or on their phones. No one tried to scare us. We wasted $20 that night.

Overall not bad of a place. The attractions were long and I definitely enjoyed myself! I paid for V.I.P ($40 a person) which included a new maze. It was was challenging, got lost and ended up walking out where we came in! I think there were too many emergency exits that got us confused. Wish we could’ve completed it fully!!I do have to say, some of the younger employees were very unprofessional and not sticking to the script. As in talking with others and not paying attention to next groups following in.You can tell the owners put a lot of time and effort into making this attraction and I definitely would recommend to friends!!

Not scary at all. A few decent cast but mostly just mazes. Definitely not worth the 2 hour wait or the $40 VIP.

It wasnt terrible but it also wasnt the best attraction Ive been to. Not sure if the actors are paid or volunteers. Im sure that would make a difference in how they perform. The actors were of all ages- which was cool but they could have been more frightening.There were also many gaps in the trail where youre just in the forest- a great place to scare people but it was just a nice quiet stroll. Having the actors spaced out more would also help with navigating through the trail. We got lost many times and no one to guide us. They also had the radio playing which had commercials. They most definitely could afford to invest in an auxiliary cord and hook up a phone. A pre-made CD would be better than hearing commercials.As an adult, the scariest things were the things that interact with your 5 senses. If they add more things to mess with your senses, actors a little more scary/spaced out more throughout, and they get premium(no ads) pandora/YouTube/ play a CD, it would be much more frightening for adults and get 5- stars from me.Nonetheless, it was still a fun thing to do on a Saturday night during a pandemic. I would come back next year to see if they improve, if not I wouldnt recommend.

Absolutely fantastic. Staff was great and the actors were amazing. Definitely a must go to every year.

This would be a great place to take your children that want to go to a haunted house. Its not too scary at all. I gave a one because I was expecting way more.

For the price it should be 100x better. We spent over 150 dollars and went through with a huge group of more than fifteen which made it impossible to enjoy. Actors were overwhelmed not enough time in between groups to do what they are supposed to do.

Best haunt in Ohio!! Vending and food available. Over an hour of scares. A nice big fire near the front gate with benches. Super scary.

Payed $80 for the vip pass for my boyfriend and I am disappointed. It wasn’t scary and there didn’t seem to be many actors as most of the mazes we just walked through them with no one scaring us and when they did they would body shame my boyfriend or scream high pitch in our ears. Some aspects was cool like going through the woods and some of the theming with Jason/Freddy/leather face.When we asked if we could go back through the mazes again to get our money worth they told us we would have to pay again! For $40 a person it wasn’t worth it for about an hour walk through.

Excellent actors that all seemed like they love what they do and all seemed so appreciative to everyone going through the haunt. Well worth the money!

Me and my family went here last night and some of the actors were extremely rude. They commented on my sisters boyfriends scar from something bad that happened to him. A few of the actors got up in my face like nose to nose close and didn’t back up when I asked them to. Most of the actors didn’t have on there mask , and they stopped and talked to us and didn’t try to scare us. It’s a waste of money . And I definitely wouldn’t get the vip bands you go through a maze that’s not even really put together that well , they also have weird Mats on the floor that could make you hurt yourself by tripping at any time . It’s a big waste of time and money.

Got hassled by the police for sitting in the parking lot because the teens I took wanted to hand out some more! Plus they double charged my kids. We payed $100 for 3 teens

I had a group of alot of people and we were all disappointed, I had been years before and it was very scary, this year was laim, half of the actors werent even trying to scare us and the set up wasnt good either, too many young people working it. Prices should have been cut in half, this place made $800 off of our group alone, surely you can pay better actors and just hire kids who arent doing their job. Very disappointing. Next time well definitely skip this place, its a waste of time and money

No masks. No social distancing. We had to leave :( Did not feel safe.

Very well done and well organized. Good enough for adults, but still family friendly. Will go again.

We had a good time, parking and admission was a breeze. $83 for four. A couple of us got a little spooked a few times.

This is a BIG WASTE OF MONEY. Most actors were not scary they talked to us and didn’t scare us. They were also being extremely rude please do not go there. Go to the brimstone haunt in wilmignton do the fear forest it’s super scary.

Excellent customer service!! Great for spooky szn 10/10 would do again

Very fun haunted house. Took over an hour to go through and has many fun attractions and scenes!

Had an awesome time. Lots of really awesome scares and really awesome attention to detail..

Went on a Friday not packed. They sent us in very quick unfortunately it was a waste. The time it took to get thru was long but I felt like I was walking thru a daycare to many kids working actors was not jumping out at one point one of the clowns had his mask off and told us he would be right with us then started his chain saw. Was very disappointed

Great experience im just going to point out the best actors there, balistik I think they said I loved him a little small but that was the best actor jingles couldnt scare my group so he started making funny jokes and all that penny wise and the guy on stilts balistik was the best there go see him hes going to own that place one day.

I want to start off by saying that I travel all over the midwest looking for the best haunts. I have attended over 60 haunts in the last 5 years. My experience at this haunt wasnt bad by no means but it definitely lacks a lot compared to some of the best haunts Ive been to. The trail is garbage, it needs to be much darker and less spread out. It really doesnt have much going for it at all. The 3 other haunts are merely pallet mazes that are pretty much all the same. There really is no theme at all at this haunt which I think hurts it more than anything. Anamatronics are far and few and non effective. I will say there are a ton of actors at this haunt but sadly they are not used effectively either. It is literally a bunch of teenagers running around with cheap Walmart masks on with no rhyme or reason. Most of the actors just stood there quietly as we passed. If these actors were properly trained to interact with the crowd and have an actual purpose in the haunt this haunt would transform into something that could rival the top haunts. On the plus side this haunt is long but there were times when I felt like I was just walking through a bunch of curtains (owner must love curtains because there must be a thousand) to see the same thing over and over again and was actually relieved to be finally out and walking back to my car. If this haunt would focus on quality over length I think it would definitely be more worth the money. I personally would rather go to a short haunt that has well trained actors and themed surroundings in my opinion.

Great place and had a blast can’t wait to go again next year!

Dayton Scream Park is over priced and not really worth it. They Say theres 4 Mazes however its really only 1 Trail thats cut up into sections. Then if you pay an extra $20 you can get a skip a line pass which I was assuming meant you could skip the line for 4 mazes when in reality you skipped the line for the trail. But you also get access to a 4th maze. But that 4th maze is literally a maze. No scare actors you just wonder aimlessly trying to find the exit.Also I paid $40 and Im only able to do the maze once which is bs. If I paid that much for literally 1 maze then I should be able to do it as many times to get my moneys worth. Keep in mind that its just under $40 for Kings Island Haunt where you can get unlimited rides and mazes for the night. So honestly i should of just paid $75 to do Land of Illusion and get the skip the line pass there where they have 7 seperate mazes. Man this was a waste of moneyThere wasnt that many scare actors and very few memorable moments. I like that its all in the woods. There was a room with just a table and a bottle of Hand sanitizer which I thought was funny.There was another room with a bunch of fridges and no where to go and then out comes a clown from one of them and you go into that fridge to continue along the maze. I thought that was cool. .There was a room with leatherface in it. He had a chainsaw and was cutting up a dead body and water squirts on you when he does it. That was a nice touch.The beginning of the maze had you walking through the woods and you could see a scare actor in the distance. That was cool for the creepy factor however it probably would of been better if they just hid in the trees.There was also a room that had a guy in a cage and he had a stick that would create sparks when he hit the cage. That was a cool effect to see the sparks fly.Also it felt weird to walk in some areas cuz they have these weird mats on the floor that makes you feel like youre stepping on, im guessing entrails or bugs. It just felt weird on my feet. Also This place aint made for big people. Lots of crouching and tight spaces. There was one lady who quit a maze saying this aint made for fat ladies (lol)Overall I would say spend a little extra and go to Land of Illusion (which i never been to but i bet its better than this place)

It was not worth 20 bucks waited in line for 2 and a half hours just for a 20 minute Walk more then half of the workers did not even try to scare you they were just talking not even paying attention only got jump scared 2 times the whole way threw dont waste your money here go to a haunted hospital or somewhere thats worth the money!

This was terrible! When I went there was no security or anything controlling the lines so three fights broke out due to cutting. I waited in line for three hours and didn’t even get to go in no refund, And due to the fights when everybody started running I got pushed out of the way and fell onto the ground and broke my wrist worst experience of my life. Also there’s a bunch of people smoking weed in the line. It was the worst haunted anything I have ever been to.

Great night! Definitely will keep you on your toes

I really had high hopes and it wasnt completely a waste we still had a good time but it seemed like there was alot of limbo areas, maybe i have higher expectations as i once worked for a haunted theme park but it seemed they lacked actors in alot of the areas. However it was a lengthy and i see the potential but for a saturday night i feel it was kinda a letdown. Get more actors. I wouldnt spend the extra on the vip for what i experienced

It was great loved it 40 dollars for vip was a little high but it was good

Yall do an amazing job ! Ive been 3 times and it gets me every time ! Yall definitely put in some good work ! My friend made a mistake and yelled my name and got my named yelled all through hollywood and chased for a good 10 mins afterwards ! Definitely will be back before end of season!

I went through yesterday with a friend and came back through tonight with about 6 family members and we all got v.i.p.Ill start off by saying not everything has to be a maze. The extra v.i.p. scene was just a really bad maze. Theres way to many spots to get lost and like 50% of the actors are just teenage clowns or teens covered in blood. We got our first real scare with the glowing faceless werewolf, the clown with the bell, and a fat orange clown but it has some very rude actors in between that cursed my group out and mocked us. The second night only the werewolf and the rude guy was still there. Clown town had a few really good clowns but some really bad ones. Hollywood was pretty lack luster, the scenes didnt really match the characters but Kruger, Myers, and the chainsaw guy all, scared us pretty good. I thought the faceless werewolf, a clowntown clown and the chainsaw were the best scares. Over all I would go through again but I wouldnt get v.i.p. because honestly it meant worth that much. Friday was 100% times better than tonight.

@Amber Scotts review says is wonderfully. The mats throughout the attraction need to be removed. Period. Dangerous and would rather walk on the ground. So many people were stumbling and tripping over them because theyre bent upwards catching shoes. Also, seems like with their high prices, we would walk through more than old skids and have more than a few little kids scream a high pitch frequency into the ears of guests.. isnt what my family called scary at all. There was about half of the time that we walked without anything jumping, popping out, screaming, chain sawing, we did hear the 4wheeler off in the distance and saw some headlights but that was it for that.. but nothing at all for at least half of our walk through the trail.*as for mask wearing.. were outdoors and they dont protect against ANY virus any how so, not the least bit bothered by that.I felt that for what we got... we were over charged. Prices need to be lowered if funds arent going to the much needed upgrades.We waited over in hour in line, and cmon with the double price of $40 to get VIP , thats laughable and waaaaay ridiculously priced!Then, we skipped the 3rd attraction called Hollywood due to ANOTHER long line that we were told had another hour wait... and for what? To possibly get the same weak experience... we didnt take that chance. We opted out and left. My 6, 9, and 17 year old got scared maybe a couple of times each. Seriously needs a major face lift to the place and better scare tactics. Screaming and face paint isnt the best tactic based on my experience. I dont have FB so I hope that was enough details for the owner.

Scary, we took our 6 year old and hes fearless but both of us were scared and running most of the time. We go to haunted houses all over the state and this was definitely top 2 for sure!

I absolutely love it there I go every year as a tradition. And I try to throw money at them so they can keep on doing what there doing, some day I wanna volunteer for it!

Not the best haunted place I’ve been to. Me n my family went here and some of the actors didn’t even have their masks on and would just stand their not even scaring you. Also the other groups that were in front of us were so close to us that it made it even less scary bc we got to see where all the actors were. One of the actors even made fun of my bf bc of his scar on his head, which was rude. Definitely a waste of my money. Also don’t get the vip pass, that’s a waste of money as well, you get this maze that’s just frustrating bc the maze was poorly made. Overall it could have definitely been better, didn’t seem like their was a theme just a bunch of random things put together.

Best haunted house around ! definitely check this place out !

35$ For a vip and you only go through once wow lmao this place is a joke unless you love smelling bo and wanna see actors having a smoke session I wouldn’t recommend this place

Worst haunted place ever. They had barely anyone working and none of there stuff was scary. A huge waste of money!!!! What a rip off. Will never be going back here

Lines can be long. I personally think the fast pass was worth skipping the lines.

The place was incredibly bad. Two friends and I went and bought VIP passes and drove 2 hours to get here. I dont think the other comments about people in their lines doing things that are against the rules is a fair judgment of their haunt, however, the quality of the trail itself was comparable to a middle school putting on a haunted house for a charity. Not scary, poorly designed, music from radio stations with ads playing on full blast while walking through. I dont think listening to tire ads and car insurance ads add to the effect of, Im terrified. Lots of instances when actors went out of character and cussed you out for not being scared by their attempt. A couple of guys in the rat traps reeked of booze on their breath and were stumbling around. Worst haunted house Ive ever been to. Go to Land of Illusion ($50) in Middletown, or Haunted Hoochie ($25) in Columbus and pay the small extra price, (or the same price) for a haunt thats 10X better.

It wasnt scary just a bunch of mazes. People were friendly but again not scary

This was not scary at all, I think they are short handed or employees don’t want to scare people! Waste of money

Great place great people Thanks to all the volunteers that make it possible

Best crazy place to go to ever!!! 150% recommend

Waited in line for like 2.5+ hours for 30 minutes of walking. Wasnt scary. The most entertainment was when the cops and security went running into the woods to break up a fight.

THE SCARIEST experience of my life. 10/10 would recommend.

Was going through it and the actors were touching and with this pandemic going on it’s dangerous for me and my kids and not to mention their staff their were so rude and disrespectful and i was just trying to have fun with my kids i would recommend anything but dayton scream park

The very first part was the scariest, other then that it was a bunch of teenagers yelling boo! They told us there was over 100 actors, but they didnt tell us 99% of them were between the ages of 16-3, yes I said 3 years old! I dont think it was worth $20 a head!

Where they still care about the scare. It was great!

Terrible! People running into people, no time to let other groups go ahead. Old props, barely any animatronics. Not worth 20 bucks a person.

One of the best ones I’ve been too

They are great and friendly very good environment!

Omg!!!! This place is above all stars or any ranking system what so ever... Pee before you go, you have been warned....

We drove an hour to get there, waited in line for 3 hours and 45 minutes and then got sent home as we were finally reaching the entrance because of rain. We didn’t get our money back either. They just said we could come back. Why would I want to wait in line for over 3 hours again???

Kids had fun, haunted house are no longer scary. A little pricey!!

That was a waste of money! Not scary at all!! I wish I didn’t even spend the extra money to do the vip tickets.

Its so bad. Its not even scary.

Awful haunt. Most actors stood there and looked at you. No masks on any staff on premises, constant conga lines, no hand sanitizer stations. If I could give them less than one star I would. Would not ever give them my money again.

For $20 dollars the dayton scream park is a great value, and a fun to place to hear grown men cry like little girls.

Its awesome. Very scary

So scary!! Best haunt EVER

First time here and got upgraded to VIP for free.

This is the worst haunted house I’ve been to . I am a person that gets scared easily and I didn’t get scared at all during this . do not recommend this !

Was okay got the vip bands and if all 4 attractions were together then we did them but if not we only did 2 cause the last section took our bands

Such an amazing place! Great prices very organized and well taken care of! The actors are by far good and the make up and mask are great. Good entertainment, lines are fast. GOOD FIRST AIDE TEAM! People here are great! I highly recommended if you wanna get scared to go here!!

Excellent staff and great snacks!

We had a great time!

I got spooked real bad. 10/10.

Best haunted attraction in Ohio by far!

One of their staff members chocked out a 12 y/o little girl. Then tried to run up on my dad. It wasn’t scary at all. They go in your face, they cuss you out even if you are a child, and are just over all disrespect.

I had the VIP and Touch Pass. Our experience was great! It was fun. Not super scary, but well worth the money.Need more female workers so the touch pass is worth the money for women. Touch Pass is awesome for men since more men work there.

Hands down the best haunted attraction I have ever been to, and Ive been to quite a lot. Highly recommend getting the touch pass! Its an incredible time and the actors and actresses are amazing! Would highly suggest visiting!

Such an awesome place to go love taking my kids there. It is the best haunted trail in Dayton i would recommend anyone to take their families for a scary experience. All the actors r very nice love going every year.

If you want to be screamed deft come here!!!
