Unfortunately my wife and I were evacuated from our house due to the wildfire in SoCal and I have not had time to edit the videos. I have the video files on my computer but I don’t know when I am going to get them edited and posted. Thanks for your understanding.

I am currently working on putting together al of the video footage from the haunt this year. Keep checking back for updates but I hope to have it up on the site within a few weeks.

This year I received an email that they were holding an Open House / Dry Run night prior to opening to the public and we were invited to check it out. We met the owners of this haunt a few years back at a HauntX convention in LA and really hit it off. Unfortunately we never got a chance to check out their haunt due to the fact they run it only on Halloween. This haunt was a little ways away, but completely well worth it.

Home haunts around Orange County are few and far between this early in the season; most do not open up until the week before or are only open 1 night (Halloween). So when we had the opportunity to check out HauntWorx in Brea this early in the season we jumped on it. Originally we set out to go through the Saw maze in Brea a second time to re-review it; but circumstances led us to this haunt instead Saturday night.

The outside décor is great and a large movie screen above the haunt entrance provides some great entertainment in the way of B-Movie clips for line waiters (there are also monsters wandering around). The setup reminds me of an old backwoods shack and pulls you into the haunt from the get go. Once inside the theme continues in what can be best described as “Inbred Family” similar to what has been used in horror movies such as Texas Chainsaw Massacre and The Hills Have Eyes. Being that this is the first haunt I have ever seen use this theme I must say I think this is one of the most original and unique ideas for a haunt.
