I was just there to day its not Tht bad just hang on To someone tell urself there actors who cant touch you and your gonna make it out even tho 1 did touch me I threw my fist back broke the wood but yea its cool p407 I yelled Tht out and he said shit guards and took of funny as shit and p204 is mad chill so it was realy fun don't sweat it when they say or do shit like he was drilling someone mouth me venice him aghh me wht I just say ne nice palter along scare them back go even if u just do tur
@Ducksayquack8 he is talking about the people who have been arrested there in that prison, (which is a haunted house now) are there most formal guest so mostly prisoners who been arrested there like to go back and see there old cell if they have a chance and even bring there kid =)
SPOILER ALERT: I went there last year with some friends, and I swear Intake got me the most, and also that blast of air that hits you before you walk through the vortex tunnel in The Experiment made me paralyzed for like 3 seconds because it hit me SO hard!
i was going 2 go last year but i chickened out at the last minuet i might have cryed or punched somebody in the face just because of my quick reflexes haha im never going here i cant do that 2 myself ill have nightmares for YEARS haha
oh my gosh it was terrifying , there was not a minute left where somebody would jump at you , it was awsome the effects and setup and everything was amayzing but it was also verryyy terrifying !!!!!!
i went last year and had a pretty good time. HOWEVER , this is just my opinion but i would find it more eerie to go to this place at night without the scary dudes poppin out because IT IS infact haunted
goin on the 17th, been goin for the past 3 years, im 14 now its amazing, i live in jersey always go with like 7 people, im gonna move to philly and work there when i get older, they changed maximum security to intake and lockdown and they got rid of 13 rooms and added the infirmary new for this yr, its gonna be amazing!!
yeah i went there last weekend, and i like was about to pee myself, dead serious. its really crazyy! i was waiting in line n this guy in a orange jail suit and this long snout gas mask on was like bobbin his head up n down n i knew he was coming but he still scared me when i wasnt looking. ahaha im going again this weekend(:
Not sure since I haven't been to other haunted things in years. To me this was a 'fun' type of scary -- with things/people jumping out at you from all directions at any time. I liked the NightWatch section (3:57) with the creepiest part seen at 4:17. But that's just my personal reaction.
was there tonight for the first time ... WORTH going to -- scary and a lot of fun. We got there early enough to park in the neighborhood (to avoid the need for the shuttle bus) -- the neighborhood is totally fine.
no, i just came back, it was too dark, and some of the people saw me video taping and they just said, no flash photography, thats it. And i didnt scream at all, just got surprised, the infirmary was the best part
yeah i go allll the time and its reallly fun but i wish they use the real cells and stuff and dont set up as much. it would be funner if you just walked through the prison in the dark with barely any decorations and people jumped out. it would feel more real
Best place to work, no doubt about it. And yes, some people do find it more fun than scary. . .up until Halloween. Don't forget, it's a place for the entire family and there's a line that we don't cross. Although it does get exponentially blurry the closer the holiday is.
kiefer, good stuff, i cant wait to go back maybe this upcoming friday i will, i heard they extended one of there attractions i forgot which one, hopefully it is more scarier then last yr i found it more fun then scary but my wife thought it was scary
i was there last year.. it was a great experience. its not just the actors and special effects that gets u scared.. its the history and real happenings in the place that keep you goin the whole time.

They obviously didn't believe that it was other trespassers or ppl playing tricks on them. The place is really haunted, or at least it was at the time! So when it was rehabilitated in the 1990s it was not "totally untouched" after being abandoned for about 30 years, as the "Program Director" says at about 1:15 - 1:20.

...there was even an elevator shaft with water at the bottom of it, tho they were to freaked out by the site of it to go for a swim & figure out how deep it was. They also heard noises like voices, footsteps, crying, screaming, saw ppl moving in the shadows/silhouette. They also said that they heard and saw someone falling from one of the levels, or floors up above them, from a few dozen feet away. The person plummeted like 5 stories & they heard him hit the floor.

I have a friend who lived in Fairmount, the neighborhood that ESP is in, & they, who is in their late 20s, told me told me that her older brothers who are about 5 to 15 years older than she is, went into ESP when it was still abandoned in the 1980s. They found refrigerators with rotting food still inside, they found bones, tho probably of animals, ...
I went here in the daytime for a small class trip and was amazing to be there. I really want to go to the Halloween thing. lol I guess I'm lucky a live half an hour away.
kiefer, im suppost 2 go again, just gota figure out a day, anyway u said u went again this yr? anyway they said there something new about intake? i cant wait to go i went last yr wat a blast it was once u go u wana go again.
Yeah, I went two weeks ago, with one of my best friends. It's so awesome. I actually foud it, this time, to be even scarier than last year. I screamed way more this time round than last time. It's still all TOTALLY worth it. I'm aiming to get down to FRIGHT FACTORY, maybe this upcoming weekend.
Well, I just got back from the place, and let me tell you that you're in for a world of screaming. I actually screamed more this year, than I did last year.
You'll be going through 5 different sections: IN-TAKE, LOCKDOWN (one of the scariest), 13 ROOMS, 3-D EXPERIMENT, & NIGHTWATCH. All I can tell you is that you will be on your toes the entire time. You will not be able to relax one bit, for everytime one character jumps out at you, another one jumps out before you can relax.
I think your adrenaline will be evn more out the wazoo than you think. While you wait in line to get in, there are even actors that'll be walking around outside, scaring the Hell out of ya. It's kind of like a warm-up, a small preview of what's to be expected inside. Once you aget inside, there's no turning back. You'll seriously be screaming out loud, without being able to help yourself. You'll love it.
It's so funny you said you're in Texas and can't get to Philly for this. I just found out about Thrillvania, and I want to go through that attraction so fucking bad, but I'm here in Philly, and that's out in your home state. Lucky you.
Well, let me tell you that you will not regret it. This is definitely the best and one of the scariest Halloween attractions in Philly. I went through it for the first time last year, and it was worth the price of the tickets.
Ok, I did the night tour and it was ok I could have done without the actors and just walked around in there that would have been scary the people just kind of ruined it, it was fun to talk and fool around with the actors lol I wanna go daytime could somone tell me if they let you walk around without actors?
This place is so scary!! I went last night and the actors get right up into your face!! I thought i'd have a heart attack!!! The day tour is really cool. I did that about two years ago and this was my first time for the Halloween tour.
I've got the weirdest boner right now...
