Fields of Terror - Gassville, Arkansas

A Tale of Potential and Prolonged Patience**

The Good: Parking at this haunt is like finding a unicorn in a parking lot – it's surprisingly easy, so you won't end up doing laps like a frustrated vulture. And the space? Each area is so generously sized, you could practically do a five-minute jog or just sprint away from whatever ghost or ghoul decides to say hello. The Waiting Game: However, patience is not just a virtue here; it's a necessity. Prepare to engage in what could be dubbed as the 'Extreme Waiting Olympics'. Bring not just a folding chair but consider setting up a full-on campsite because the line? It moves with the urgency of a sloth on vacation, even when you're apparently next in line. The Experience: Now, the location? It's got that authentic, spine-chilling vibe that could make it the stuff of legend. The actors, bless their hearts, are giving their best performance since the auditions for "The B-Movie Without a Budget". But staffing? It's thin. You might see more monsters in your dreams than here, and the sound system? It's like someone hit pause on the spooky playlist. Oh, and watch your step; tripping hazards are more frequent than scares. Concessions: The concession stand is a fantastic concept, a little slice of normalcy in this world of frights. But there's a catch – the generator's roar could probably be heard in the next county. It doesn't just break the immersion; it obliterates it, leaving you wondering if you're at a haunted house or an impromptu rock concert. Overall: This place has the raw material to be the heavyweight champion of haunts. Yet, right now, it's the energy equivalent of flat soda – it's there, but not quite hitting the spot. And those long, unmoving lines? They're more haunting than any ghost could ever hope to be. Final Thoughts: This haunt has all the ingredients for a blockbuster scare-fest, but it's in desperate need of a pinch more effort, a smidgen of better management, and significantly less waiting time. Until it gets its act together, you'll find yourself caught between excitement and exasperation – a true rollercoaster of emotions, just not in the way you'd hope for.

Fields of terror in gassville was not worth the 25 dollars. In the event the Exile, it was not scary at all the actors consistently messed up and were dropping there weapons, masks, ect. I was able to spot most of them before they could scare us and they tried to hard. In the circus or clown maze it took less than five minutes to get through and they didn't even have pennywise. Although the asylum was pretty impressive in my opinion. They scared very well although the group infront of us took at least 30 seconds or more to get through each room so the actors didn't have time to get set by the time we got there and the group behind us were girls who were on our tail the entire time. We chose to wait for a few minutes so we could at least get a little adrenaline rush. They should wait a little longer so that the actors have time to get ready and scare again

AMAZING customer service and the owner was extremely understanding ! My kiddos got too scared after we had already bought the tickets and she didn’t even hesitate to give me back a refund.
I’m definitely going back when I got a sitter ❤️

We went on the 18th even though I'm very hard to scare it was a blast. More than worth the money Highly Highly recommend

This place gets better every year! Pleasant atmosphere while you wait in line with some fun little extras to do while you wait or after the haunted house. This year there was a goblin that entertained the crowd while we waited and he was awesome!! 5 stars to him alone, in my opinion. The haunted house was scary as always! I go every year!

For my first time ever, this was a great Haunted House and Zombie Paintball. For the Zombies I suggest you buy extra, $5/100 paintballs. You are supplied w 100 w your ticket. If you are wise you could make it all the way on 200 paintballs. But if ur out for fun buy more. The Haunted House was great. Nothing scared me, but I was with my nephew that had ghosts and zombie repellent. So they didn't scare us. I'd love to come back on the 24th for lights out, but you are supplied w a flashlight. I recommend all adults and kids need to come out and enjoy the fun.

Great place and family friendly! I think they try to make it enjoyable for everyone. The new Gassville location is great with some additions. I also have to give props to the younger actors. I told an adorable little actor he did great and he never cracked. Give that boy an award! ?
