So, if visiting the Alamo seems overly reverent, Ripley's Haunted Adventure's front door is across the plaza. While the big budget, ever-open haunted house attraction goes for the regional appeal by referencing The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, I regret that they didn't capitalize on the specific location and have the angry corpses of Mexican soldiers attempting to eat us tourists. Or a zombie Bowie coming at our skulls with his famed knife. Seems like a wasted opportunity.

You went to Texas and didn't visit me? I'm so sad. I could have showed you where the zombies hang out you know. Too late now though.
How does/did it compare to the old coney island haunts that you reviewed a year or two ago ?
haha, they should hire you...you could really help them out.
Heather,
Damn.
I was going to cop to the excuse that it was a business trip, but the honest truth is that I'm completely pissed at myself for focusing on the gig so much that blew the chance for a meet up. Totally stupid of me.
Sassy,
It's a walk-through with live actors, so that's a different beast altogether. Though I'd give it good marks. Especially since one imagines they're going for the family crowd, yet they keep it pleasantly gruesome.
No problem CRwM. I couldn't pass up giving you a hard time about it is all. San An is a good ways away from me but I would have tried if I had known you were in Texas to meet up. I hope you had a blast all the same!
