Cutting Edge

No, the 11 isn't a typo. Cutting Edge is the best haunted house I've been to in my combined 16 years as a reviewer and customer, and this is their best year yet. We have to give Cutting Edge an 11 because it's off the scale! Everything at Cutting Edge is outstanding, there isn't anything I can think of to improve on, I just wish it were open all year. At $23 it's a great value due not only to the quality of the haunt, but also because it takes 40-45 minutes to go through.

Cutting Edge is located just south of 1-30 in Ft Worth across the interstate from downtown. The outside is well done with an archway entrance to the ticket booths, credit cards are accepted with photo id. To enter the haunt you walk through a giant skull. The first area is a toxic waste region with falling barrels, lots of air cannons and a machine gunner. For the next 40 minutes you'll pass through spinning tunnels, KAOS ( an undead club), quite a few foggy areas, a chainsaw room, a maze with chainsaw wielding actors, a neon room with well hidden actors, a dark and foggy dungeon, a corridor with green strobe rays, along clown area, a wet area, and a large dungeon area. Close to the end you'll find a band room with excellent drummers. Between the long themed areas you travel through completely dark, twisting hallways, I had to feel the ways to find my way through at times. The entire way the best music I've heard in a haunted place plays and adds considerably to the experience. The Pit Maze follows and in four years I haven't been able to find my way out in time before the lights go up. Good luck to you if you think you can find the exit in time. The exit presents a choice between a wet, bubbly exit and a dry one.

If you're going to see one haunted house this year, make it Cutting Edge, it is simply a must see. Cutting Edge is without a doubt the most intense haunted house experience I've had!
