"MEH"

Saw it--very "meh" (ok/nothing special), sorry. Maybe if you aren't used to horror at all, it may possibly spook you, but if you are a horror connoisseur, it will do absolutely, positively nothing for you. I kept waiting and waiting for the apparent "really scary stuff" to occur, but it never did. I thank my lucky stars I got severely discounted tickets, because if I paid full listed price, I would have been A LOT more annoyed. This show is worth only about $30-$40 MAX--the production is not even anywhere near impressive enough to justify anything higher. So if you're curious, I suggest either getting discount tickets, or staying home.

WHATEVER

Nothing special. Not that scary (mildly spooky at best). Does NOT live up to the hype AT ALL. Was just....ok. Could have been better. Not worth $79....

NOT AS TERRIBLE AS PEOPLE SAY

Ok i read all reviews everywhere i could find them an despite all the negative reviews went...i already had my tickets. I found the show entertaining. No not terrifying but entertaining in a way I had not been entertained before. It remindd me of a live movie. Had its boring parts setting up the stories and some entertaining parts. Was it worth a full price ticket...probably not. Worth $30-$40 discounted tickets..yes. Its not the feel good performance you get from regular theater but like i said etertaining. I really think more jump out of your seat moments could have been added as well. Another thing... The Brits have more of a base sense of humour and also a more base sense of fear. They tend to be more histrionic. This could explain their reaction to the show we see on the previews.

GHOST STORIES??? REALLY?

I was really excited to see this show. Having read some reviews of the London production that gave little away but still had a bit a info. Just saw the show this afternoon April 2 and my friend and I did not find the show as scary as it claims to be. Maybe we were too pumped for it. Or maybe it's because you can't really pull off a "horror" play. People say they have a hard time sleeping after they see the show, not me. The Paranormal Activity movies were far more disturbing than this show. It just resorted to a lot of jump scares and startling moments of darkness and loud sounds. If I had gotten the tix discounted I wouldn't feel so ripped off but having paid full price I really didn't feel it was worth the money I spent.

14+?

the only reason there is a "14+" warning is because there is some profane language and porno moaning featured in a few sections....it has absolutely NOTHING to do with the scare level. the scare levels are probably appropriate for younger than that. it was ok, but i feel like this was promoted in a grossly misleading way. if it was just promoted as a spooky themed show (and not 'the scariest show ever, you will die of fright!'), i don't think as many people would be annoyed. you can check it out, but just know what you're getting...

$25-$30 IS ABOUT WHATS IT'S WORTH

really the advs for this show are a total joke and definite false advertising. this show was ok (not that scary etc).....but i certainly wouldn't recommend it either. i got super discounted tickets for $25 (probably because no one was buying anymore after word got out!) and it was fine for $25....but when i think of what the regular/standard price was for these tix??? wow. let's just say i feel VERY bad for the people who got gipped into paying full price....NOT WORTH IT. $25, sure, ok (it's worth that price), but anything above, no way...

I SHOULD'VE LISTENED TO THE REVIEWS!

Not good. Could've been so much better! The idea is a great one but they botched it up big time. It was boring actually, only a couple scares.
