Short Desc
A mad scientist and an animatronic robot perform a series of "experiments" that go horribly wrong. Of course.

A small audience is led to a dark room and seated in several rows of chairs. The mad scientist starts the show and, with the aid of his robot, he performs a series of "experiments." Audience members may get to flip a switch or press a button to activate the next portion of the show, or volunteer to be part of an experiment with a high tech "dream catcher" device. Effects include lighting, fog, animatronics, air, electric firecrackers, and more. It's hard to describe since it is really unlike anything I have ever seen before. 20 minute shows start at the top of the hour. It's not a "walk thru" haunted house, but has more effects and props than many entire haunted houses have, in one small room. I'd consider this a "must see" because it is so different than anything else around.
