This Town

This town is a lonely town

Not the only town like-a this town
This town is a make-you town
Or a break-you-town and bring-you-down town
Hear Frank here. 
Terror Town.  A break-you-town for sure.  A scare-you-till-you-just-want-to-leave town.  Yeah.  Terror Town Pittsburgh.  Wow. 
We had heard really good things about Terror Town, the newest downtown haunted location in Pittsburgh and so we were anxious to give it a try.  The entire set up was professional from the start.  First of, Pittsburgh weather can get nasty in October and Terror Town has taken that into consideration by providing plenty of indoor waiting space.  The indoor waiting space itself is creepy.  It is kept very dark and there's even an electric chair that you can try out for $5.  While we were there Texas Chainsaw Massacre was playing on a flatscreen as we waited in line.  The woman at the ticket booth and other staff were extremely friendly. 
Nearly every actor we encountered seemed excited to be there.  The young woman who promised to make me into a Mr. Potato Head and the owner of the mortuary were especially delightful, as was the rather creative gymnast in the graveyard at the end, but it is difficult to point out specific great actors, as truly, everyone but one dude seemed to be putting his or her heart into the whole production.  I could see any of these folks on a stage. 
It was amazing how creative genius, Michael Maggot AKA Michael Todd Schneider was able to create an entire underground world in less than a year.  Mr. Maggot talked with us after we went through the haunt and he was kind, friendly, funny and brilliant.  It was truly good fortune that we got to meet him.  I can't thank him enough for taking the time to speak with us.  If you are ANYWHERE near Pittsburgh, make the trip to Terror Town.  As a bonus, the location is supposedly haunted for real!  Here's the video!
