Pirates: Isla De Los Muertos
If someone is looking for some real scares, he or she best keep
out of this Pirates Den.
At the end of the day, it might as well be a set from the last
Pirates of the Caribbean movie that is overrun by small children in
black cloaks. There are a few trippy effects, but no real scares. It is
a great, creepy exhibit for young children, but anyone over 10 will
probably yawn.
Return of the Voodoo Woman
Chris Maher
“Spongebob
Squarepants.
This exhibit gets an “A” for theatrics. After leaving a well-decorat
ed bayou hüt, visitors are cast into the abyss of a house. Its deep
est parts are faintly reminiscent of the film People Under the Stairs.
The ride is capable of inspiring a few chills - that is, until a zombie
girl can be seen writhing around on bed sheets like she is in a bad
Cher video. After realizing that if they were real zombies they would
be trying to eat people and not walking past gurgling, the chills dis
sipate.

Hayden Institute for the Criminally Insane
If there is only money enough for one haunted house, this is the
one to see. There are real scares, especially if movies like Silent Hill
or The Grudge inspire even the faintest creeps. The turns and door
ways are very unclear; they feel less like a walkthrough and more
like ah actual place where crazy, homicidal maniacs are forgotten.
There is a bloody hallway that is an impressive element.
CamEvil Funhouse and Freakshow
Former Clackamas ASG president Kristin Madden
does a little haunting at Janzten Beach.
This attraction was a lot like walking through the hall in high
school where all the goths and Juggalos (Insane Clown Posse
fans) hung out. The only real thrill that can be derived from the
funhouse is the one that comes after being accidentally fondled
by one of the teenage actors. Young children will be traumatized
but not entertained. The End.
