Went tonight. Parking lot was full. Drove to the other lot and saw at least a hundred people inside and one little school bus pulling out, so we just found street parking not far away. NBD. My fiance and I both decided to wear the glow necklaces, since taking them off is always an option (not knowing what to expect, we gave it a try). Honestly, it wasn't bad for me. However, my fiance got it a little worse. She's very androgynous looking (not to mention tall), so I'm assuming the actors mistook her for man. And I get it. It's dark, she's 5'10 or so with short hair, it happens. But because of this within only a minute or so inside the actual attraction (inside the elevator, after the "experiments" portion) she was forcefully grabbed by an actor and pushed hard against a wall. She wasn't injured, but she did say it hurt. This happened several times. I would just advise that the staff (possibly the ones screening everyone before they enter or the costumed actor who recites the rules) communicate to the other actors inside info that could plainly be seen in the light. My fiance has a feminine face. In the darkness, I can totally get someone mistaking her for a very slim man, but someone could have radioed the actors, "hey, that tall person in group X is a chick! Don't be so rough!" I'm assuming it's not a situation that arises very often and therefore I totally understand not being prepared to handle it, but hopefully this review helps for the future. Clearly the actors go a little harder on the men (someone caressed my face and grabbed my arm, but that was about it - while the men in my group definitely had more "violent" contact), so maybe making a point to educate staff on LGBTQ identities and the different ways we all look could be beneficial.

As for the attraction, the beginning was fun, the middle not so much. There were really very few actors in the first attraction. Or two attractions, I suppose. Which is misleading, TBH. And not very clearly posted. We walked around for a bit trying to find the "third" attraction only to be told we had already experienced it. That was a letdown. The upstairs portion is newer and definitely where they are putting all of their attention. There was at least one actor per room, while the downstairs was less heavily populated. Balance is key and this really wasn't balanced.

Also, when we went to do our 5 minute "escape room," there was absolutely no one behind us and they still forced us to go with a group of 6 ahead of us that was totally filled with children. And the "victim" didn't even remember what he was supposed to do, so we basically stood in the room looking at numbers for 5 minutes. I had even guessed right what the purpose was, but the kid couldn't remember what the instructor told him to do. Kind of a waste and could have been way more fun if we had been allowed to go in ourselves.
