I'm not saying they shouldn't be scary, but I don't get the notion that a house sucks just because I didn't get scared in it. I personally think sets are more important than scares because scares are cheap. Shinny pennies over this way, then have someone jump out and yell boo. Yeah that is fun, but my point is you can get that in every town in October. What separates HHN is the scale and sets. Everyone has their own opinions, I personally don't judge a house by how many people jump out and scream at me, but I do judge it on the sets. Once the event starts they can always add more actors, but its harder to make the sets more impressive.
Haunted Mansion has the word haunted in it, and its not really scary.
It's become clear that you attend Halloween Horror Nights for reasons that are not intended for its core audience, that is, to be scared in an immersive environment. As such, I'm going to have to agree to disagree with you. Enjoy your sets.
And by the way - a house isn't bad because *I* personally didn't get scared. A house is bad when the scare design is poor. Resident Evil's is VERY poor.
