Visited Dead by Dark Hour on 2/15 and we had a really great time. This event is different than the normal haunt season because it has a gamification element where the guests are trying to "survive" as they explore the attraction. The actors can mark you with a sticker (which says your manner of death). You are allowed to matrix-style maneuver to avoid this. I have had the pleasure of visiting Dark Hour multiple times over the years and as a Haunter myself I always worry I will get numb to scares like Louise in Bob's Burgers but this was a game changer. My group agreed that it added a rollercoaster nervousness that stayed with us all the way to the exit. You were constantly swiveling to make sure you weren't about to die. Well done Dark Hour team, I think you just fathered the future of haunted attractions.

I just read y'all's updated TOS and I think it's absolutely crazy that y'all have someone working there who has been accused of rape multiple times and defends it by saying that it's not true cause the girls didn't report. Which is incriminating in itself.

Amazing construction, detail, and acting. Always something new, and very disability friendly. They scared the h3// out of me even though I was in a wheelchair, most places tend to ignore folks with disabilities. Cannot recommend enough.

The visuals are unbeatable. Made my husband scream with a jump scare. Also lost my keys during the walk through, luckily my keys were waiting at the desk after the walk through just when we noticed they were gone... what a life saver. Only thing I would say could be better is not letting so many groups enter so close behind each other, the jump scares don't work as well this way. But otherwise very good overall. Loved it.

I gave it a 4 only because the actors could’ve been a tab bit scarier. Some of the parts were predictable or they’ll just follow you. It was a group of us and we enjoyed ourselves and love how the scheduling was a piece of cake and we didn’t have to stand in a long line.

Too expensive.Very short or small.Way too crowded.

Probably the best themed haunted house I have ever been to. The reason for the 4 stars is because I wish they did a better job of staggering in the groups. It was basically one long assembly line of people from the time you started to the time you walked out and I think that really took away from some of the jump scare opportunities. If you want to go for the theming? Do it. If you're doing it for the jump scares, maybe find a different haunted house.

If your a person whom wants really scary and dark this isn't the place for you don't get me wrong the amount of detail that was put into this haunted house they have spared no expense but it was more concerned with safety than anything very open and more like a walkthrough Disney ride than anything still worth it but for die hard horror fans probably not

The haunted house attraction is incredible—definitely one of the best I've experienced! However, the staff could use some improvement. They seem unfriendly and often look unhappy, which creates an off-putting atmosphere. On the bright side, the ladies at the entrance who manage the queue are always fantastic, as are the staff in the store. Unfortunately, the guys involved with the haunt operations come across as quite rude. I suppose working at one of the best haunted attractions in the country might inflate their egos! My suggestion would be to have them work behind the scenes, away from customers, so they can express their frustrations without impacting the guests' experience. Honestly, who chooses to walk around looking grumpy at such an amazing place?

I recently attended my third event at Dark Hour and Stiltbeast Studios. It was fantastic! My fellow students made whole head latex masks starting with nothing but ideas and clay. The facilities are excellent for learning this art. Every team member we came across was friendly, knowledgeable, helpful, and driven to help each student achieve their goals. We spent three days creating our masks. In that time we went on a lights on tour of Dark Horse, their haunted attraction.I recommend their camps and labs as an excellent source of learning, as well as a wonderful place to meet new people, including the staff and students alike.You won’t be disappointed if you attend an event here. I am considering taking a special trip someday just so I can go through Dark Hour as a customer wanting to be scared.

This was a horrible experience but in a good way. I'm 6 foot 4 but was running and screaming like I was 2 feet tall. I had a blast with my cousin and definitely recommend to people who are able to submerge themselves into the experience and just enjoy life. The staff played their role very well and I am happy to say I survive the Dark Hour Haunted house with no bites (you will find out what I mean). Grade A++ love it

One of the best experiences ever! Look up, down, and around. Don't miss any details on your walk through!! Sets and entire place are amazing!!If you didn't know, you do now. They offer Monster Camp lead by top notch teacher Allen Hopps, his wife and team who are extremely talented, kind and generous with their knowledge. A truly great experience!! Thank you for being a educators!!

We've been going to DarK Hour for years now, but this was the first time we went non VIP and we still had an excellent time. Got there when there was no line and it was so much fun!!!

Such an amazing location. Filled with one of a kind creations that are all made by hand in house. They have amazing themed escape rooms and a massive haunt. I'm so impressed by the great staff and amount of love they put into building this establishment. Must go but don't forget to do VIP bc it's truly a Experience. Fun for one or the whole family and friends.

My uncle took my cousins and me out for enjoyable activities. This was actually my first visit to a haunted house—I had never been there before. This has got to be the most exciting and terrifying thing I've ever done. This is an excellent haunted house to visit with your family! I really enjoyed it. I am eager to return the following year!

Bryan Smith

We had a group of six, and we had a blast. The puzzle was fun and moderately challenging at times. I would definitely recommend this one to anyone who is into the escape rooms looking for a spooky theme while not being too scary for kids.

If you remotely like haunted attractions, you need to run not walk yourself over to Plano and visit Dark Hour. My wife and I travel to haunted attractions all over the country and Dark Hour is one of the best we have visited. I look forward to see more shows during the year!!!

Just went this weekend on the 29th and it's the best haunted house yet!!!I've been to five haunted houses in Texas (I actually worked at one before a few years back) and I'm impressed. I'd give them 10 stars if I could.•The aesthetics and effects are awesome! Practically over the top and creative. Some aspects of the haunted house is fear based and others are just outright cool. It's unlike any haunted house I've ever seen.•They have a combination of electronics and actors to give everyone a frightening scare. (They mainly have jumpscare actors, but there's a few that actually put on a performance or switch things up for their act.) Absolutely everything in this haunted house is well thought out and definitely over the top in the best possible way.•Ticket prices are a bit pricey $40-80 budget, but it's definitely worth it!! About 30-40 minute walkthrough if you walk regular slow pace. (In case people wonder why haunted houses are so expensive. Just remember most have many actors to pay and decorations to fix/upgrade over the months.)•Do prepare for long lines especially so close to Halloween as even the speed passers had to wait for a good amount of time. But the wait isn't all that bad as they have music and friendly, but scary actors outside. Eager to take photos with those who deem brave enough.🎃🎃•If there was something I'd change it is maybe the ending to the attraction. As it was a bit anticlimactic compared to the rest. Basically just saw the exit and that was it- none of the usual scary/cool send offs haunted houses give.Thing's I didn't see surprisingly is dolls and chainsaws.(It practically has everything else which is again impressive!)

Everything about this place is great. The amazing staff, enthusiastic performers, awesome band and clean facilities makes for quality entertainment. One would usually travel to Florida and visit the theme parks to enjoy the professional and quality entertainment. Well done.

My family loves Dark Hour! We’ve never had to wait in a long line, the theming is always so well done. I always scream. I miss having them open year round with seasonal themes but was so grateful they put COVID precautions in place for their customers and employees.I updated this to a 5 star review after attending a behind the scenes tour as part of the Texas Haunters Convention. The passion and pride of the employees for this place was so evident through their enthusiasm on our tour. I was also able to see all the attention to detail that you miss when attending the haunt because they do such a good job scaring you that you’re too distracted to notice all the little things they do to enhance the experience. This place is a gem of a haunt.
