The Lemp Brewery Haunted House appealed to me because of its location. I'd never been in the space…read moreand was wanting to check it out... Even if it would be covered by decor, distorted by light, and filled with people. The $25 price is a little high for what you get. It took us just a few minutes to get through the line to start. We had only about 25 minutes in there. I guess that's a fine amount of time, but another 5-10 minutes would have been all the better. You have to pay to park in the lot. It's only $5, but if you arrive early enough or don't kind a walk, you can just park on the street. I didn't see or hear anything about the Lemps (except for some props). That's probably a good thing--rhey were real people. There were some nods to the Victorian (I suppose) era early in the route. The spiral staircase at the beginning was one of my favorite parts... Because they were old and real. No scare factor there. They let you take photos as long as you don't use a flash. They got a few decent shreiks out of me. Would have had more but my friend walked ahead of me. I won't talk about the parts I liked--no spoilers here. I wish they'd had a bit more variety, though. It was mostly dungeon/undead. I'd have liked some vampires or scary clowns. I did the Darkness a few years ago and that was a bit better. I'd like to try Creepyworld next year. No regrets about going to Lemp, though.

Let me start off with saying the only reason this is 4 stars and not 5 is that it feels too short,…read moreespecially for only being $5 less than Creepyworld. We did all three Scarefest attractions in three consecutive days. The Lemp Brewery was our very first night of scares and it was a great way to kick off the weekend. This year the Lemp Brewery Haunted House took on an occult theme, which is not my typical cup of tea, but it was done well. For those not familiar, the Lemp family history is pretty bleak and the Lemp Mansion is said to be haunted. Nearby is the Lemp Brewery, which is where this Haunted House is located. So this attraction is touted as a "real" haunted house. (This is a haunted house attraction, not a ghost tour.) The natural setting is pretty great. When you arrive, large brick grain elevators tower above you. Across the parking lot from the grain elevators is another old brick building, the Lemp Brewery. Once inside you descend down two long stories of spiral staircase until you're underground. This descent helps create a bit of nervous anticipation, paving the way for the scares to come. This haunted house might be short, but it's pretty intense. It does an excellent job of confusing and disorienting through strobe lights, darkness, and hidden doorways. More than once we found ourselves going in circles in the dark unable to find the way out. The logistics: There's a large paid parking lot attended by the attraction's employees. It took about 30 minutes to go through. It's located pretty close to The Darkness, so you could probably do both in one night (assuming it's not too crowded).

I mean, really!?!? I had an incredibly disappointing experience at Creepyworld St. Louis on Saturday, October 7th. My group had timed entry tickets for 8:00 pm. However, upon arriving on time, we were herded into the General Admission queue and waited for over 2 hours just to enter the first house. To make matters worse, there were multiple lines even after this long wait, AND the power went completely off three separate times for prolonged periods of time. The mismanagement, extended wait times, and power outages made our visit a complete nightmare. We eventually decided to leave the event early.
