The Haunting Reviews

Great time

Lots of fun right from begining. The lady letting you keeps you entertained while you wait then the real fun begins.A very scary and fun walk through the woods. You never know what's next from the haunted Western town to the Headless horseman. Something new around the next turn.

Email Verified So Fun!

What a fun scare! I took 4 13-year old girls this past weekend and this was the perfect amount of scare! There were a few tears shed, but overall they had a great time and laughed at how scared they were the whole way home. Beware the horses - those were a delightfully scary surprise!

Email Verified Worlds best haunt!!

I’m posting this as an actor of “The Haunting” so some may believe my review to be biased but give me a moment to explain why it’s not. The reason I love The Haunting is not only because of the amazing scares that we get to preform for our customers every year but I also love it because of the environment. At The Haunting, the owners make you feel like family. They treat you good, listen to your opinions and ideas of how to run your scene and they give you the freedom to tell your own story based around your scene. This is one of those haunts that you could go through 5 times in one night and experience something completely new every single time because we’re not tied to a script. I love The Haunting and I recommend it to all of my friends. I can’t wait to see y’all out there this year!

Best Haunted Trail in the State!!!

This was the best haunted trail experience ever! It included a wild west town and a haunted village. It is well worth your money and lasts a little while too. Always be ware of the headless horseman. I would rate this trail the greatest. It is located on the westside of Columbus, Indiana and has been in operation for many years. The staff is friendly and the food upfront is even great too plus it is family friendly as well.

Best trail I've been to

This is a great haunted trail. The cast is great. The trail is long and actually in the woods. You get the feeling that the woods are actually haunted. So many scares from evil duranged clowns , haunted pumpkins and I'll leave some to the imagination. It's a must visit for sure. The screams are real

Fun and Scary

The Haunting is about a 45 min walk through the woods. It is both entertaining and scary. The clowns at the beginning were both funny and at times frightening. Plenty of scares as you make your way through the woods. I love this one because everytime I come there is always something new and different. I love not knowing what is going to be around the next bend in the trail. Will it be the headless horseman or something else equally sinister.

Email Verified Both Family Friendly and Haunting

This is an amazing experience for all ages. The non-scare is perfect for the beginners to experience a haunt with out the dark unexpectedness of the scare times. Then you can come back a try it in the dark to get the full effect if you dare. It is a haunt that is well worth the money. And the fact that it is a not for profit that puts the money toward an excellent cause makes it even better.

Mine is worth a visit

It is our family favorite and we always love to spend a quality time here. There are always changes each time and we love the fresh ideas. It is never boring or predictable. The actors were imaginative and caught us unaware. The mine is worth a visit and I loved the headless horseman. He was relentless and never backed off. There were too many scary creatures to tackle. The finale in the wagon ride was exciting. Bumpy and scary we reached the exit, honestly we had the best moments and it will last forever.

Email Verified Great Experience just 1 issue overall

Our group had an awesome experience and it was so much fun. However, the guy at the end is very rude. He could have been more polite when telling people to stay back behind the steps. Perhaps maybe have a sign to let people know to stay back instead of passing the steps and the guy at the end gets hateful if you pass it. It kind of ruined a few peoples night and made us feel awkward since he was so rude. We were having a great time before that happened and then it just kind of bummed everyone. No one likes being treated like that when we are just having fun. It could have been explained in a nicer way instead of basically getting aggravated and raising his voice.

Email Verified Mind blowing experience

We had fun time at shireman. It really wasn’t the regular haunts we had visited before.The haunted trail into the woods is nothing but a scary trip into the land of unknown. My friends and I had a blast at the maze. There were more twists than expected and each had a challenging task of facing the ghost. It was all planned well. We came out of the maze to be in a graveyard and that was frightfully silent. The crew pulled it out so well with the best use of visual and audio effects. It was mind blowing and we will pay another visit.

Email Verified Shireman Homestead Excellent Choice for Halloween

It was my first haunt and loved the experience. It was a blast with friends. Loved the maze and the trail. Got excited walking in the thick woods. It was like having a real haunting moment with actual ghosts. The sounds were realistic and got startled a few times. The maze was amazing. Its winding paths with scares from nowhere will take you by surprise. The animatronics will take your breath and creates the right ambience. The mine was a long walk with horses and horsemen for company. Hayride was enjoyable, it got me screaming and laughing. Loved it, will be a regular.

Tons of props and scares

Shireman was a wonderful experience. Went with my BF and we had a blast. The trail was pretty long and had lots of props and scares. There were also jump scares, few of which actually caught me by surprise. It is a real outside trail, so be careful not to trip over roots. The graveyard was freaking scary. The mine was pitch dark and I screamed at almost all the scares. The headless horseman freaked me out, and we eventually ran to the bridge. The hot chocolate on our way out was awesome. I recommend this place to everyone out there.

This will be our third year going to the Shireman Homestead and it is fantastic. I can't believe all the hard work they put into this each year. It is a long walk through the woods and every twist and turn is scarier than before. The headless horseman rides right up to you too and it makes a great touch. We take our 2 young children (7,9) they are scared but they hold onto dad. It is a scary trail, even for adults, and we will keep coming back as long as they are open. Good work Shireman! Great farm and woods and production!

Freaking scary

We go every year and Shireman never disappointed. Our five year old kid liked the haunt very much. He wanted to see zombies and that was a great experience for him. The woods had creative sets and awesome scares. It is also family friendly. My wife is usually scared to do such things seems to have enjoyed it to the hilt. On our way back, she can’t stop talking about the scares and actors. The mine and mine camp was freaking scary to say the least. The ghostly bride on the horse was my favourite. Entry fee was reasonable for the experience. I will come again.

Wonderful experience.

I and friends drove for 2 hours to reach the haunt. We liked it. The ghouls, ghosts and zombies scared the crap out of us. The trail had many jump scares, and it was fun watching our friends jumping and screaming. As the bogey man chased us, couple of us tripped over the roots. But it was great fun. The mine and mine camp also had some nice scares. The set design was realistic. I thought the ticket rates were reasonable. Staff was friendly throughout. Food was great too. I will return. Shireman was a wonderful experience.

Great entertainment and lots of scary fun. I and my nephews visited Shireman Homestead and the kids loved the haunt. The wooden trail had some great scares, props and creepy zombies and ghouls baying for human blood. Couple of times, the boys screamed out loud. The set design was creepy and realistic. Graveyard and the mines freaked us out. It was dark and you can’t anticipate the scares. The headless horseman/woman scared the daylight out of us. We three ran and never stopped till reaching the bridge. Entry fee was not expensive. The snacks were nice too. I would recommend this place.

Email Verified Shiremans

Shireman's haunting was a good time. As the parent of a elementary aged child I felt the Haunting was just the right amount of scare. The kids really enjoyed it and it was well worth the money. It lasts over 45 minutes. The actor's did a nice job but I have a fear of enclosed spaces so they allowed me to pass the "mineshafts". I appreciated that a lot. The young boy with the pop rocks was creepy and the chainsaw guy was great. The kids really liked the way the people his higher up on the pole/trees. I would recommend it. The use of horses was super neat especially if you have kids who like animals. If you are worried about it being to scary to before dark. The also have a special time for littler kids. Check it out!

Email Verified Awesome time

Lots of fun. Everything from fun to frightening the walk in the wood with all the sounds and characters is great. Throw in the suprises around every turn and the eerrie ghost Rider and headless horseman also the ghoul on horse back popping up everywhere kept u on you toes the whole time. Elevator ride in into the mine was unbelievable. Great entertainment for the price.

Email Verified Very scary

This is the best Haunted Trail I've ever been on. You can tell a lot of hard work has gone into this project. The characters are great! The mine and upside down house are terrific!! If you like to be scared to death, this is the place to go. Already looking forward to next year!

Better Every Year

We have been going for the last 4 years and it just keeps getting better. Every year they add new thrills.Certainly worth the money.The adult scare time is as they say not goid for small kids.

Spooky and fun for the whole family!

Shirmean Homestead offers a delightfully scary evening at The Haunting! You really get your money's worth in that the length of the trail is substantial, there is a great variety of themed stations, and the actors are quite interactive. They also offer a family friendly time to walk through during the day time, which is great for families with small children. A great time for all...don't miss it!

Best Haunted Trial

Amazing place ...you have to see it.My family and friends went through this weekend.We all loved it! The Horseman came out of no where. My dad even stopped to talk to the old gun fighter to tell them how great they were. How original that idea was. They all put on a great show... So many scares and things to see. This was my sister 2nd time going.. We all will be going again this week end.

The best adventure

Far exceeded our expectations, thank you for the work and planning to put together such an elaborate, thrilling adventure. This is not your average 10 minute thrill, it was much longer with a variety of settings. Especially enjoyed the headless horseman with a real horse!

You got to go!

Sat Oct 3rd 2015One of the better Halloween Events here in Indiana.Almost an hour to go through it all and still did not see it all.I love the old west, but did not get to see the town well. The skeleton cowboy would not stop shooting and was very aggressive. Felt very rushed to move out of there. The old Texas Ranger was a hit with us spinning his gun just like in the old west movies. Would like to see a fun kids and family afternoon in the town with the Texas Ranger,horses, indians and some other themed characters. Did not care for the workers that chased us. Not knowing terrain and in darkness.The mine shaft drop was exciting.Headless Horseman caught us all by surprise when he galloped at us.

Screams around every corner!

The best haunted experience I've ever had. The group that puts this on does an awesome job. They work so hard and care about providing the best entertainment that they can. So if you like things that go bump in the night and just overall love being scared, this place is a must. The headless horseman rocks!! Go out and see for yourself, if you dare!

Love the place

rfeally like the fact that they offer a non scary time for the younger ones (don't know many that do) and still do such a fantastic job during the Haunting part of it too! Hard to pick a favorite thing. They alternate years for the corn maze, but even without it the place is full of scares, thrills, and even a few laughs!

I have been going to this since the first year 4 years ago

Best-kept haunted trail secret in the state of Indiana featuring a spooky corn maze walk at the beginning and then it is off to the backwoods and some real scares. Oh, and don't forget about encountering the Headless Horseman as you get to the end of the trail before getting on a fun hayride wagon taking you back. This place is FUN, FUN and FUN with the friendliest people running it and even a concession stand.
