REVIEW: Haunt at Heritage Hill

The elusive Haunt at Heritage Hill is a rare treat for the serious haunt aficionados of SoCal. This event is hosted by Orange County Parks in the Heritage Hill historical park and is usually only open for one weekend. This park contains some of the oldest buildings (school house, chapel, and ranch homes) in the area, dating from the 1800s, and is therefore the perfect environment to host haunted mazes. Haunt at Heritage Hill’s event fills the park with thousands of orange lights and volunteers who are dressed up as various horror characters.

This year, the park contains multiple attractions: the Side Show Maze, Backwood’s Nightmare, Reaper’s Revenge, and the Haunted School House Fright Maze. The latter is our favorite and will take you through a blacked out school house filled with dimly lit figures. You will exit into a maze filled with mechanically triggered animatronic frights, spooky music, and a collection of scare actors.

As we exited the park to the sounds of hundreds of teenagers screaming, we stopped to admire a beautifully festooned old wagon. Covered with hundreds of lights, this wagon entranced us and we were then suddenly surprised the Grim Reaper who popped out to scare us. This was the best way to top off our night of deep OC frights!
