I've been 3x and I love House of Frankenstein. I really think it's a bit too ghoulish for small children, but older kids and adults will love it (if they are into horror stuff). The scariest part was the room where... well I won't spoil the surprise. Shocking for tots, but OK for kids 9 and up who are not... more

Super boring for adults and very scary for kids. I went with the friend ( both 30th). I wouldn't take my 5 year old. You can see that exibits are very old, probably everything the same since it's opened 30 years or so ago. Maybe just teenagers will enjoy. Otherwise, don't waste money! more

I've been through the House of Frankenstein on 3 separate trips to Lake George and I was just as scared each time. It's truly ghoulish and maybe a little more grown-up (I honestly wouldn't take kids under 8 or so depending on their maturity) than the other wax museums or funhouses because it's more horror-themed. I still don't know if... more

If you are seeking a scary exhibit to go through, go here. Dr Morbid's down the street was horrible! Staff at Morbids was rude, had more than the "8 people maximum " go thru with us, so we missed much of the exhibit.Was rushed through from the beginning..Had a fire drill 3/4 of the way through and we evacuated, we... more
