    Ehhhhh

    by Anonymous on 10/28/15Randalls Island - New York

    The costumes were awesome and the choreography was nice, but the seating on the wagon was uncomfortable, the line arrangement did not allow for quick exit and it wasn't scary. I thought the price was too high for what was provided and some of the souvenirs were just as much as the ticket itself or very near it. This might have been a better experience as a walk through instead of on a wagon.

    Don't waste your money

    by Tiffy05 on 10/28/15Randalls Island - New York

    The Haunted Hayride was a waste of time and money. It was 25 minutes long and not scary in the slightest bit. I was genuinely very excited for this event but what I experienced was a huge let down. You sit Indian style on top of everyone else on the ride on the floor of a tractor with your back to everything that's going on. You ride through the different sections and all they do is bang on the tractor....lame. This had such potential to be great but I was so, so displeased. Do yourself a favor and don't go.

    Waste of MONEY..

    by RichieS4 on 10/28/15Randalls Island - New York

    Went this saturday the 24th. Everything was unorganized.. Pay for shuttle tickets and shuttle ended up being free.. Got there and there was no signs pointing to the hayride. Then waited on line for just over 3 hours for a boring ride.. The view that the ride offer was the best part..

    Don't waste your time or money

    by Anonymous on 10/27/15Randalls Island - New York

    Simply horrible. Waited 3 1/2 hrs to see people bang on the side of a wooden bed where ur crammed in. The only thing that makes this a hay ride is the hard floor your sitting on has some hay. It's not like a typical hay ride we are familiar with growing up. Not scary at all. And most of the time your riding to the next tent that last a minute. It's basiaclly an odd performance if anything not scary at all. I can be scared easily so that's sad if they didn't scare me. The most annoying part is you pay in advance for tickets that have diffrent times, and the times don't even matter. Either way ur waiting at the least 2 hours. Our tickets were for 9 and we got on the ride at 12:35. It was also impossible to get to. There were no buses really and we couldn't find the shuttle because they didnt have one indication that it was for the haunted hayride, not even a small sign. Even if they did it didn't matter because it only held 9 people and you can only imagine the wait for that if people already had to wait 3 1/2 hrs just for the hay ride. Big disappoint. NEVER GO! If you don't want to waste your time or money.

    If I could give no stars, I would!

    by Jane300 on 10/27/15Randalls Island - New York

    I would never attend this event again! Spent 3 hours standing in line before I finally got tired and left. Didn't even get to experience the hayride. Of the thousands of people there had to be only 3 wagons doing hayrides because after hours I was only halfway through the line. Not to mention their concession stand ran out of food and drinks so essentially you had to go without food or water in the cold. I wasted my $36 to buy tickets to this shameful event & this is a lesson learned

    Worst Experience Ever!

    by Anonymous on 10/27/15Randalls Island - New York

    Me, my family and friends have gone on many haunted hayrides and this has got to be the worst experience ever!! We purchased tickets for a group of 19 people for a 9:00 pm slot and did not get on until 12:00 midnight!!! 3 hours online!! We finally get on the ride hoping and expecting an awesome performance and the ride was not worth the wait time at all!!! We should have stay with our original plan “Headless Horseman at Sleepy Hallow”—one of the best and well organized haunted experience!!! We should all be refunded!! Shark Tank bad investment!!!!!

    I really enjoyed the haunted hay ride. It was very well put together. Very creative. But I only give four stars because there was a technical difficulty and we ended up waiting 3hrs. But it was worth the wait and they will learn from this years mistakes and make it even better next year!!

    Awful and short

    by Philip79 on 10/27/15Randalls Island - New York

    Me and my friends booked the 8pm slot for Saturday 24th, we arrived at 7.45pm and was greeted by a huge line. We waited more than 3 hours in the line before the generator stopped working. Finally we were loaded in to our hay ride but instead of sitting on bales of hay we had to sit on the floor. The ride only last 20minutes and was more funny than scary. Super disappointed and would never recommend.

    This was the biggest waste of money. The wait was 3 hours long, the lights turned off while we waited. The ride itself was said to be 45 minutes and it was only 20 minutes and not even scary! Save your money and don't waste your time on this ride.

    NYC Hayride was disappointing

    by mibravo on 10/27/15Randalls Island - New York

    I was very disappointed, i thought it would be off the hook since it was never done out here in nyc before. The hayride was very unconfortable, our leggs were so cramped up thru out the ride we kept moving so it would not fall asleep. The actors were not a bit scary at all, i know its a more theatrical but we wanted to feel a bit scared. Having it next to the bridge and highway take the scariness feel away. The music shouldve also been more scary. I liked the conviniece, that was it. Sorry but would not recommend.

    Not worth it! Avoid!

    by SarahAsh001 on 10/27/15Randalls Island - New York

    We purchased the 7pm tickets and were very happy we did. We arrived at 7pm and waiting on line for about 40 minutes or so until it came to a HALT. We were at the front of the line at this point, and no tractors were coming or going. After waiting another hour (and not moving at all), people were getting frustrated. There was NO COMMUNICATION at all. When we ask the staff what was going on, we got screamed at by one rude staff member in particular. The line started to move again and we finally got a tractor at about 9:45pm. I was disappointed by the ride. The backdrop was great and that was the one saving grace. I would never go again and I would tell my friends to avoid at all costs.

    Don't waste your time!!

    by Dasia917 on 10/27/15Randalls Island - New York

    Bought tickets for 9pm, waited in line for 2 hours and was trying to be coerced by staff to upgrade to VIP tickets ($15 more) to cut the line. Isn't that why they sell timed tickets to begin with? So you can get in at that time?? After waiting 90 minutes, were told once we entered the next portion of the line, we would not be able to leave to use the restrooms or we would not be let back in. Waited another 30 minutes and the lights and power shut off...."technical difficulties". With a good 300+ people still in line, we decided to cut our losses and just leave. We probably would not have gotten out of there until after 12-1am if we continued to wait. So now the question is, how do we get our money back???

    Absolutely Awful Experience

    by Ains412 on 10/27/15Randalls Island - New York

    Bought an 8pm time, showed up at 7:30, waited in an unbearbly long line- no exaggeration - and got on the hayride at 11:15pm. There was no way we would enjoy the ride after waiting so long. So poorly excecuted, and word of mouth has spread in NYC- DO NOT GO TO THIS UNLESS YOU WANT TO WAIT IN LINE for a so-so experience.

    More funny than Scary

    by Msct3exotics on 10/27/15Randalls Island - New York

    It was worth the fun because I was with two amazing people. It wasn't very scary at all. It wasn't very dark and the actors didn't really do anything scary just loud banging and jumping on the side of the wagon over and over and a few screeching noises. I wouldn't go again because I was expecting to be scared I really don't do scary things so I gave this a try eased me into the idea of going to another type of haunted event

    Tragic Experience

    by Mikeysofetch on 10/27/15Randalls Island - New York

    We bought tickets for 9pm got there half hour early didn't get on the attraction until 12:40Am. As we waiting in the freezing cold weather the power went out so half of the wait was with no power or music. So we waited over 4 hours for a 15 min ride; which must of been shortened because of the. Overselling tickets and the overwhelming crowd.

    HUGE WASTE OF TIME & MONEY!

    by CBJG on 10/27/15Randalls Island - New York

    This isn't even worth one star. I am disgusted that I wasted my time and money because this was the most poorly organized event I've ever been to. DON'T GO. We went with another couple, so 4 of us in total. We bought tickets for the 9pm queue, understanding that this didn't mean we would get in AT 9pm. That is the biggest understatement, however, as we were in line for 3.5 HOURS. Yes that's right, we did not reach the front of the line until 12:30am (technically the next day.) A woman who worked there kept pushing everyone to purchase/upgrade to the $50 "VIP" Tickets that supposedly let you skip the long line us fools were waiting in. I'd have to say anyone who did so were the bigger fools, though, because they soon found out what a waste of money it was. The VIP line did not move much faster than the regular line! At about the 2.5 hour mark, the annoying looping music and string lights above us suddenly cut out. Nobody knew what was going on, and nobody who worked there (which seemed like all of 5 people) gave us any information. I came to find out through TWITTER that a generator had blown. We spent the next hour in cold, dark silence. It was so late at that point that everyone was cranky but we had all stuck it out that long so turning back was not an option. Finally, at 12:30am, we reached the front of the line. I asked the person taking our tickets how long the ride was. He assured me each ride was 35 minutes in full. Now, I know this is a hayride, but the 50 of us left in line were literally dumped into the back of a flatbed tractor with scratchy hay on the floor, not bales of hay to sit on. We were sitting on the bed of this truck smushed up against each other. We also so happened to be sitting on the right side of the truck so as we went through the ride, had to turn around uncomfortably and strain our necks to see what was going on behind us, since everything seemed to happen on the right side. As for the ride itself, I feel bad for the actors who had been out there all night. They did a good job of committing to scaring people, but it wasn't even that scary. All they can do is come up against the sides of the truck and bang on it. You see them coming as you're pulling up to each "scene" so the scare/surprise factor is gone. There was too much time in between each scene as you ride over. I've been to truly excellent haunted houses before and this was lazy. I set a timer on my phone as soon as the ride began because I was pissed off at that point...what do you know, the entire thing took 21 minutes. So I waited 3.5 hours in line for a 21 minute uncomfortable, mediocre scare. The scariest part of the night was probably standing on the corner in Harlem, waiting for the M35 bus that never showed up. Or perhaps the $20 cab ride just to get over the bridge to Randall's Island and being dropped off in the dark with no signs leading to the attraction. Quite a toss up. TLDR; This was a humongous waste of time and money. Not even that scary. Big ripoff, zero communication from anyone working there to acknowledge problems. Save it and go somewhere else. The fact that they got money on Shark Tank for this just leads me to believe the show is fake because this is a poor investment, Mark Cuban!
