Overall Feedback: 301 Devil’s Playground never ceases to amaze us! After visiting for our 5th time in 6 years, 301 Devil’s Playground continues to impress with their adrenaline-packed and spine-tingling experience! These folks boast FOUR haunted attractions that are sure to appease even the most experienced haunt goers! Their midway may not be as lively as some, but they offer a small snack shack, numerous photo-ops, & roaming scare actors. The roaming spooks will without a doubt provide a few hair-raising startles to help get your blood-pumping prior to entering the attractions.
The four haunted attraction offerings will be experienced in consecutive fashion, minimizing your wait in between attractions helping to keep that adrenaline rush flowing from start to finish! The House of Hell is a torturous adventure with blood-curdling surprises lurking around every corner. Densely packed props, eye-popping animatronics, & sinister scare actors help to make this a gut-wrenching journey that’s sure to leave nightmarish impressions! 3-D Phobia is booby-trapped with pop scares, sure to send shivers down your spine. The 3-D effects utilized were mesmerizing and very effective at disorienting us on our journey. Be prepared for an relentless assault of your senses, as you're overloaded with intense visual, audio, & smelly special effects! The Barn of Torture is nothing short of grueling, as you pray to escape the manic mutants that lurk throughout the attraction. Massive animatronics, menacing scare actors, & world-class set design make for a movie-quality experience! There’s certainly no shortage of blood & gore, just pray you’re not the next to be slaughtered in The Barn of Torture. The Harvest dumps you into a dark & desolate cornfield, with nothing but the moonlight to help guide you through the snake-like paths. Insane inhabitants of all sorts were lurking throughout The Harvest, waiting to pounce on unsuspecting patrons. Simple but effective set design was used to set & maintain an unnerving atmosphere. Once inside the cornfield you’ll be regretting your decision, let’s just hope you have what it takes to survive.
301 Devil’s Playground is the true definition of a hidden gem in the haunt industry - we’re amazed how many folks have still yet to experience the madness that these folks provide! Their set design is among some of the best we’ve ever encountered. The scare actors are downright sinister and provide countless blood-curdling scares. Costuming and makeup is realistic and near movie quality. What’s even more impressive is knowing that 2021 was only their 8th year of operation! Don’t let their off the beaten path location deter you from visiting. With boasting FOUR full sized attractions for a solid 45 minutes of horrifying fun, 301 Devil’s Playground is well worth the visit! Job well done as always to 301 Devil’s Playground, you’re among our favorite haunted attractions for a reason & we look forward to visiting again soon!
