HOLY COW!

We have done 3 haunts in So Colorado and this one by far was the best! The minds of demented teens were epic! First, we did Disturbance in the Monastery in the basement. That was a psychological thriller! Be prepared to crawl around! Even if you run into other parties, it don't matter because you CAN'T see in the crawling tunnels! Next, we did the Dark Side of the Abbey! That was awesome! The scares started at the very beginning and did not end even after you exited! ALL the actors were phenomenal! The nun, backward crawlers, hangers, flyers, the TALL guy, CRAZY characters, dolls...ALL of them - EPIC! It was worth the drive to Canon City and worth the money!

Incredible

Incredible experience! Excellent setups and perfect story line to hit on the scare side of the heart. We purchased the VIP pass tickets to skip the queue and it includes both the attraction for $45. It was executed well and both stories were different as compared to traditional houses. All actors did an excellent job in scaring us, in-fact they were chanting the name of one of our friends, and he was trembling a lot till the end of trail. Impressed by their acts and it was very different from traditional banging and shouting. The progression from one room to other was carried out smoothly and each room has something unexpected to scare us. High fives to all actors and team management. Enjoyed a lot and looking forward to visit next year.

Amazing!!!!!

VERIFIED

I enjoyed this very much I loved how everyone was in sync with each other and it all tied together. upstairs was AWESOME!! I loved how it was dark and spooky!!!! The pillowcases added an extra creepy effect to it. I loved the maze especially on Sunday night that little girl kept popping out even though she scared the heck out of me and so was her mother the only thing I did not enjoy was the front of the house. It was not a good experience up front she had attitude and was rude. She told us to get on the slide and listen. That was the only bad part about my experience. I loved the clown and especially the guy who got shocked that was awesome. I would certainly do this again. It is worth the money.

Fun and a good scare

I'm new to the area so I got very lucky because the actors didn't know my name, but they knew my two friends names and used them like crazy! I don't scream much or get scared easily so I only screamed once, but I definitely was screaming internally! The only problem I had was that the clown would not back off of my friend who is very scared of clowns and he put his crotch in my freind's mom's face and he started kissing a boy behind us. That was not very fun, but other than that part I loved the Abbey and for sure would go again!
