Cutting Edge, known as one of the best haunted houses in the nation, brings a thrilling walk-through adventure in an old, abandoned meatpacking plant.
Located near downtown Fort Worth, this haunted house can be described as intense, multistory and multithemed.
This attraction combines playful, interactive elements, different themes with human mannequins and a spooky atmosphere.
It takes visitors an average of 55 minutes to explore. On a Thursday night, the wait times between getting a ticket and standing in line weren’t as long as they would be on weekends.
As visitors step through the entrance that resembles a giant skeleton head, they’re immediately transported into a world where every corner hides a potential scare. Animatronics leap to life, each room is meticulously designed to engage in scenes with haunting music, visual and sound effects surround guests with an unforgettable experience.
Safety was a top priority with strict guidelines about not allowing a purse or bag, and the last person in the group was asked to wear a glowstick.
Throughout the attraction, mini breaks helped control the amount of people walking through the house.
While entertaining, the ticket prices are a little high. For families or groups that want to plan a night out, the cost can add up quickly, raising the question if it’s worth it.
For safety reasons, it’s recommended to pay an additional price for parking available nearby. The warehouse building is located off I-35 and in an area that some people would say ‘bring a friend’.
It’s worth it. Cutting Edge provides high quality production and attention to detail in their staging.
Many areas in this haunted house combine artistry, technology and creativity.
They did a good job with having a collection of props, but some areas lacked real actors. In some areas, the absence of human factors made it less thrill-seeking. The props were set up in places where if a real actor was there, it could’ve been a good jump scare.
The crowd around seemed to enjoy their experiences. Guests brought their own emotions that included screams, chatter and some laughter. Cutting Edge delivered thrills and entertainment. Ticket pricing may be an issue, but the whole experience justifies the cost.
Whether new or not to exploring haunted houses, this one sends visitors through a good time with top-notch scares.
