Heads up. There’s nothing on their website or Groupon that indicates that this is a haunted house. This is a haunted house that doubles as a laser tag«arena.» Unless you like haunted houses, would not recommend. Was very disappointed that I had to drive an hour to find out it was something completely different than I imagined.

This was a fantastic time. I seriously felt like a kid again. This is located at the Massacre haunted house. My buddy and I went on a random Saturday afternoon. We really didn’t know what we were expecting when we got there. No one else was there, but these 3 girls that were working. We decided to do an hour of play so that we were able to play all the games. We knew it would be 1 on 1, so it wouldn’t as much fun with a big group, but still fun. When we walked into the arena, I was wowed. It was so cool. It was like walking onto a movie set! It takes place in part of the haunted house, so it’s spooky, dark, flashing lights, props that scare the crap out of you, sporadically thrown about. All while our own Pandora Radio station was blasting in every room. The games were fun, each one lasting around 10 minutes with different objectives. The coolest thing about this was 2 of the girls working joined us so that«it would be more fun for [us]» which was awesome. They played with us for the whole hour and we all had a blast. You can have up to 16 people playing, but honestly I think that’s too many and you’ll always be on top of each other. Don’t have a group larger than 8 and you’ll be golden!

Back again with an update! The weekend of 5÷16÷15, me and 9 friend,(total of 10 people), decided to go to Massacre Tactical Laser Tag again, and it was much better than the first time, by far. Showing up, 2 people were about 10 minutes late and the staff were very understanding and still let us all play in our time slot. Upon walking into the arena, we come to find out the staff member mentioned in my last review has since been removed and will not be working there again, thankfully. Having so many people playing made each and every mission fun, intense, and very difficult which was much more fun than playing 3v3 like last time. Games such as team death match, domination, and capture the flag, we’re all played down to the last seconds and were as equally physical and mentally challenging, pairing strategy with execution. About an hour through our 1.5 hour session, we actually ended up needing a water break. Unfortunately, the CO2 guns are still not fully operational which was slightly disappointing as we thought they would be. HOWEVER, the staff has proved how diligently they are working to get them fully operational and let us try them in the waiting area not synced in with the laser tag system. A few shots into a CO2 mag, and the problem they have been facing presented itself and I truly feel bad for the company because it seems that they really want to release all of the CO2 guns to the public but are facing simply every complication possible. They are estimating by early to mid-summer, ALLCO2 guns,(pistols and rifles) will be fully operational and I have to say I’m very excited.(Follow and like them on Facebook to receive updates!). Between the amount of work they are putting into the arena and the guns, I am very impressed. Overall, this experience was MUCH better than the first time. This place has much potential to be a successful business and I will definitely be coming back again and again to compete in some tactical laser tag. As of now, I am only giving 4 stars because of the CO2 guns still not working, however, once they are fully operational, I believe Massacre Tactical Laser Tag is a 5 star business.

Best laser tag arena I have ever seen, and I used to work for a laser tag arena. Detailed sets lighting and sound system. Really great deals. $ 15 will give you three games and $ 30 for a hour game. Most of the games last around five to ten minutes long. Free play of arcade games and a tv to keep you busy. while you wait for your turn to play. They have water for sale and energy drinks to keep you going. They should have laser tag ternaments here if they do that lol.
