Twisted Crypt Review

Twisted Crypt is located at 5420 E. State Street, in Rockford, Illinois. Tickets are $15 for general admission and $22 for fast pass. This haunt is located inside a strip mall area where there are no other businesses next to it other than an Uncle Nick’s in front of the haunt. So Twisted Crypt is not that hard to find when you pull up to it. Especially when you see the hearse they have in front of the building.

Twisted Crypt is a very interactive haunt. It is unique from the other haunts that we go through. As soon as you walk in, you meet some very interesting characters. In the first room is a kitchen area with two men. One is cooking dinner while the other is sitting at the kitchen table.They were eating intestines, and I could smell them. It was disgusting! I still can’t get the smell out of my nose. After a while they started arguing with each other to the point the one that was cooking started choking the guy at the kitchen table! This was wild to see, these two were really getting into it. The realism didn’t stop there.

The next room was one of the funniest moments I had walking through. It was these 2 girls arguing and one of them was tired of the other girl talking so she used her hands to show she was talking too much. They interacted with everyone in our group, and I loved it! One girl wanted to keep one of us, but the other said no. The girl got really sad and said, “this is why I can’t have nice things…”.

   Now we can keep going on and on with what we experienced, but we will just keep it to ourselves so you can have some experiences of your own. The point is, this haunt is REALLY into getting the customers involved. You’re not just walking through the haunt, you are part of the show as well. Each experience is different, and each interaction is different, so nothing is scripted! So you can keep going back and it will always be different. The characters even followed us in some of the rooms, even when we were leaving. That was the creepiest part…knowing we were being followed.

My favorite part was the middle of the haunt when they were telling jokes. My favorite one: what is a skeleton’s favorite instrument? You’ll have to go to find out the answer! The Halloween Blast owner got scared fairly early on in the haunt and I really love that they have great scares so quickly into the beginning of the haunt that can still get even our most seasoned of reviewers. That’s another thing about Twisted Crypt. I said how they put on a show, but remember they are still a haunted house and just as you get comfortable, they will definitely remind you. They will throw you off and scare the pants off of you and that is what happened to us. We were having so much fun that we forgot it was a haunt, and they made us pay for it. Like I said, they got the owner not once…not twice…but THREE times and he doesn’t scare easily.   

All in all we enjoyed Twisted Crypt along with all the scary and funny moments. Twisted Crypt is celebrating 10 years in the business this year which is very impressive. We love seeing haunts that have been around for years and visiting Twisted Crypt, you can see why they’ve been around so long. They entertain you, but then make you scream as soon as you get too comfortable. If you have never been to Twisted Crypt, then you are missing out. It is not like any haunt in Illinois, it’s a very unique experience. So come celebrate 10 years of Twisted Crypt. You might have a frightening good time!
