When you go haunting as often as we do, there’s bound to be some good nights and there’s bound to be some bad nights. And then there’s nights like tonight; it was interesting to be sure, rare even. Devil’s Night 2013 will go down in the books as a memorable one indeed, for on this night we experienced both extremes of the haunted spectrum — ranging from excellent to awful.
Ironically it was a rookie that exhibited the former and a veteran of the scene, the latter. Hush Haunted House in Westland gobsmacked us from beginning to end with a high intensity show complete with detailed scenes and top notch cast. Shockingly, The Scream Machine, a Downriver staple for more than a decade, sunk to an unbelievable low with what can kindly be called a listless dud.
We also toured Bloodbath on Biddle by the Wyandotte Jaycees and I’m happy to report that the volunteer effort succeeded on many fronts; it was easily the best effort from this group since our 2009 Devil’s Night foray at Hellblock 13.
As always full reviews will be posted and for those keeping track, yes — there’s still full reviews coming for Funeral Home, Purgatory’s Revenge, Blake’s, and Slaughtered at Sundown. Much haunted goodness yet to come from Horrorlust this haunt season.
Happy Halloween.
