Eastern State

The haunted prison was not scary at all. The actors for the most part were behind bars or standing within plain sight and they are not allowed to touch you. Also it was so crowded that anything that might have been scary was not because you saw it happen to the people in front of you. The only reason I gave it 2 stars instead of zero is the 3-d part was kind of cool. For $30 I expect a really great show, this was very disappointing. I would not go back even for $10. I have been to the prison during the day and seeing the actual cells and reading the history is way more interesting and scary than the "haunted" prison at night go during the day if you want to see this place. Pros: Al Capone's cell was cool to see during the day Cons: Haunted prison attraction was not scary and way too expensive more

Attended the Terror Behind the Walls attraction this past weekend. Overall, it was a good time but highly overated. The website is a little misleading since it portrays the haunted facility as this very large "11 acre" structure. In fact the building is probably 11 acres but visitors are restricted to a very small portion of that area. most of the area is used in the daytime for touring the prison not the haunted tour Pros: Good for the family. Very Convenient Cons: Too short and too small more
