13th Street Morgue is located on the Reindeer Manor park grounds, next to the Royal Theater. Appropriately enough given it's name, 13th Street has a large collection of hearses outside, in fact it's the largest collection I've seen. The house looks great from outside with a golden skeleton and a black jack o'lantern occupying two of the windows. A PA system keeps guests informed of developments inside the house.

The two best things about 13th Street are it's actors and a wonderful attention to detail. The halls and even the stairwells (it's a two story haunt) are well decorated and there are no bare spaces inside. The caskets and back lit stained glass windows are my favorites. In addition to it's two story house, 13th also features outside scenes with a gravedigger and a pumpkin thatch. The actors follow you along the entire trail and the gravedigger is especially nasty. Inside the house the funeral parlor, the cremation area, and Santa's place are my favorite parts. This Santa makes Billy Bob Thornton's version seem tame by comparison. Overall this is a great looking haunt and the actors clearly enjoy their work.

Tickets for 13th Street Morgue can be purchased separately, but buying the $25 combo ticket ($5 off coupon available on the Reindeer site) for Reindeer/13th Street/ and Uncle Stinky's is the best way to go. 13th Street is a must see due to it's outstanding actors, fine props, and it's high fright factor.
