Talmadge
Brothers’ Funeral Home and Casket Company is located in Jasper, Georgia not far
from the Woodbridge Inn. When you arrive
at the scene of the accident you will find that a hearse has had an unfortunate
run-in with a power pole and the situation is rather unstable. Flames erupt from the transformer and alight
the night sky. Carefully skirt the edge
of the incident and you will find the entrance to the attraction.
The set
pieces upon entry into the facility are a bit of a mixed bag. There is a highly detailed and extremely
beautiful cabin front porch in the same area as the ropes which function to
guide the que line. The ticket booth is
highly generic in the adjacent space with a table set up for merchandise sales
next to it. The plain and simple has
interspersed areas of detail and creativity.
Once you
have your passes and you have traversed the que line you will believe that you
have begun your haunt experience, however you may soon find that the journey
through has not actually begun yet.
Surprisingly the initial sets that are located before the formal
entrance are so intricate and well designed that you become immediately immersed
in the world being created for you. The
floors bulge and sag beneath your feet in a manner which throws off your
balance before you are able to even begin your experience in earnest. We fully admit that we fell in love with those
floors and it got our hopes up for what was to come.
Once you
finally enter the active portion of the haunt you will experience a wide
variety of situations. There will be
moments which are subtle while others are in your face. There will be extreme contrasts between dark
and light areas, which impact your ability to see well and help them to keep
you further off balance throughout the attraction. The elements will conspire together to immerse
you in a world where the dead come to life and so do things which should never
be alive in the first place.
One of
the most memorable moments for us was the elevator ride that felt as though it
genuinely wanted to drop us into the pits of hell. It was exhilarating and highly enjoyable
which having the potential to absolutely terrify the typical haunt patron.
We
highly recommend a trip up to Jasper to visit the Jasper Brothers’ Funeral Home
and Casket Company. We sincerely hope
that you do not need to make your own final arrangements while you are there,
however they are prepared with a special resting place for you if you find that
you need it. We strongly rate this
attraction with 3.75 severed heads out of a possible 5 and hope that many more
people can make the trek to their facility…and survive to tell the tale.
As
always, we love to hear about your experiences with this or any other haunted
attraction. We happily post any reviews which
are submitted to us and look forward to hearing from you. Happy haunting!
