Awesome Big thanks to the family that's does this. Amazing, visuals, beautiful work you have done here. My child got scared towards the end, weary well done and layed out. I went saturday for my first time and Sunday (today) for the second time, they accept donations and do beautiful things for the community and charity. Ty

What an amazing local haunt! First time here tonight and it will not be the last time this season or years to come! Really cool prop and costume design throughout and even surpasses the big theme parks in terms of scares and quality!

Awesome! Free! Scary! An amazing amount of work and detail has been put on display for everyone to wonder. It is as if I walked into a maze I would find at an amusement park. I was impressed! There were literally wall to wall chills. I do not recommend for small children or those who easily scare as the participants do jump out and feed on your fear!

Great little free maze in Burbank! It Rivals the set designs of Reign of Terror and Hollywood Horror Nights! It's about a 10-minute walk through but totally worth it there's a donation box at the end. You can tell a lot of creativity and love was put into this!

Talk about detail! This is a superb scary maze -and it's all in someone's backyard! I would say this in on par with some of the mazes you'll find around LA, but this one is free! Check it out! If you can, leave a donation in the box. This family is kind enough to host this event for free, but giving them a few bucks doesn't hurt.
