  Amazing

  This haunted house is the best experience! I love how they changed up the house this year. The asylum room was amazing, they had one girl in the wall! One of the new additions that I noticed was the hillbilly backyard, the actors were amazing. They had one really tall big guy back there carrying an axe, he some how slipped in between our group and scared the girls so bad! Overall had a great time and will be returning next year.

  Great show!

  Had to get this in before Halloween was over.... Boy am I glad we went. The haunted house was the best. My friends were definitely very afraid but it takes a lot to scare me. Yet, there were a lot of moments where I genuinely jumped and screamed! I was surprised because I have been in haunted houses before and they did not really scare me. This place on the other hand is great! The effects were really cool too. The strobe lights made rooms very disorienting and people were always lurking in the dark. I could not believe how many characters there was! There were people coming from everywhere. Behind you, in front of you, next to you. And my favorite... clawing across the floor and jumping off the walls in one room. My friend fell to the floor in fear.. We laughed and screamed the whole way through and we will be back next year!!!

  Don't miss it!

  Schmitt's is just one of the best. The attention to detail and the actors who love their jobs make this haunt the best around. There was such improvements to the Experiment this year, and the mansion and corn maze were impressive as always! There is a wait, but it's worth it. Dress warm if it's cold... weekends mean lines! Shout out especially to the asylum section... The girl hanging off the wall was awesome! The sets in the corn maze were great too... They really get into your face there! Haha.

  Lost its charm

  So I'm a HUGE haunted house fan and try to go to as many as possible each year. I took my friends here thinking I was going to get the same awesome experience I use to get coming here. To say the least I was under whelmed. The Cornmaze, major disappointment. For a Saturday night, all the actors should be in place and not huddled together texting and talking. I wanted to turn a corner and see someone jump out but it was a blank space in the corn, instead I had 3 guys following us blocking me from walking. They un decorated it. Where did the huts go and tight spaces? Then the Mansion. Thank God it was decent. Asylum room was the best, but some of the good scares were lost. If it wasn't for my friend jumping and screaming for every little thing, I would say It was a total waste. But you guys were better then this and I'm shocked. I love Schmitts but after this year It will take me some good convincing to come back. And I'm not the only one who noticed. Keep building and expanding because as a fan I want to see more. The Experience was ehhh.

  Impressed

  We went last night and had a blast! The attention to set detail was great and the props looked so real. The actors did a great job too!! The Haunted House was definitely the best. THe person climbing the wall in the asylum was dope. Only thing..The line was really long so I suggest coming earlier in the night.

  Triple Threat Sorta

  So my friend Matthew Dintraney and I went to Schmitts Farm's Haunted Mansion Of Melville Saturday Night. Mansion - I LOVED the Mansion as I always do. The Actors were great and It was definitely apparent that someone put alot of thought into their sets this year. Two Favorite Rooms: Padded Room with Crazy Inmates and BBQ with the Hillbillies. The Lighting,Sound, Feel and Mood of the Mansion was right on point! Loved the Michael Myers at the end because usually a Haunted House is ALL Hollywood media or none at all and I loved the nod to traditional 80's Horror Movies without it being overbearing. Corn Maze - The corn maze was OK. The actors were good but there just wasn't much to look at or be scared by. Some random people in the corn jumping out and some animations that really need an overhaul. However all this did make up for it being under a moonlight sky in a corn field. You really do get the feeling of being in a Horror Movie when you hear nothing but your own footsteps so was it bad? Nah. was it Great? Nah. But I wouldn't say don't go. It was alot of fun. Experiment - We finished Corn Maze and went to Experiment last. It looked cool. I noticed they changed the outside which was a nice change. We waited in line for about 10 minutes until there was some sort of disturbance. Somebody was yelling on the side of the building and then the line stopped moving so we assumed they had closed or something happened. We decided to leave as whatever happened was still going as they were still yelling as we were walking to the parking lot. A little unprofessional on the attractions part.

  The best on LI every year!

  We went last night. It was so cold outside that not many people were there, and it was opening weekend. We had a great time! There are so many actors in the cornfield and haunted house! Some of them are really scary, and some of them are scary and make jokes. They had a legit looking Jason and Michael Myers. They were huge! Both scare me to death. The chainsaws in the cornfield were great because the corn is arranged in a circle, so when you think you're getting away, you're really just meeting them on the other side. We go to Schmitt's every year because we know we're going to be scared and have a great time. Definitely go!!!!!

  AWESOME!

  I loved this haunt and went twice with friends. I went with one friend the first time, had a blast, and had to go again with him and two other friends later that week. I truly think I enjoyed the Maze the most. Not to knock the house - that was great too! but the maze was by far the best to me! I got chased by this creepy clown in the maze and he had me screaming into the dark! Haha. The house had great sets from what I could see (my friends pushed me so fast that I didn't catch some of them) and the ending was awesome. Been wanting to catch a haunted house here on LI for a while now, and am grateful I picked this one. Can't wait to go back next year!!

  Good but I been to better.

  They get 3 pumpkins for creativity. It was more fun than scary. Two parts scared me, which is fair. The experiment was kinda a waste. The haunted house was fun and the corn maze was the best part because you did not know what to expect. Overall it was entertaining.

  Funny Night Out

  So originally we were going to go to Darkside but when we looked it up we saw how far out it was as we live in Babylon. We then came here and saw a Haunt in Melville. We went and man were the lines LONGGGGGGGG...BUT they were worth it! #1) The Haunted Mansion - VERY COOL! I loved the house. The actors were really full of energy and the decorations rocked. I really enjoyed the clown section. My friend Janet was screaming all the way through the hanging clowns. They definitely had a lot of dark spots so to say which scares me cause I'm afraid of the Dark. Pig guy got me really good. I LOVED the cemetery. Really well done and I think they had real vines or plants I couldn't tell. I enjoyed also enjoyed the rest of the themes (The Bloody Bathtub Room and the Meat Room). #2) The Corn Maze - This was OK. I enjoyed the outdoor maze which really gave me the feeling of the Harvest time of the year. The actors were OK. The animatronics got me more then the actors which says a lot but I won't knock it. The Maze still got me a few times :) #3) The Experiment - I was very weary about going in here and waiting on such a long line because of some of the Yelp reviews I've seen that said how horrible and stupid this was. All I can tell you is DON'T LISTEN TO THEM. We went in and what made me nervous is that there are no signs telling you what it is. I thought it was a Haunt but It's actually a show. You sit down and enjoy a movie that was pretty cool. It was definitely scary. They got wind of my friend Janets name and that was it. The Overhead Announcements were saying "Ebola Detected...Janet in second row" We were dying laughing from that point forward. Great job and we'll definitely be back next year.

  AWESOME

  I was there on Sat night and I had a great time. The corn maze was great and the mansion was worth the wait. The only thing I didn't like was the experiment. It was corny but at least I got to sit down and rest from all the standing around I did waiting on lines.

  Wasn't worth the money

  I've always heard good things about this place and finally went with my friends last night , but honestly I was disappointed about it. The maze was pretty cool but the mansion was a joke, mostly because the group in front of us was going so slow we caught up to them, so we saw a lot of the actors coming.
