★★★★★Featured review by Joelie Martin

My fiancé has been a haunt actor for over 10 years on the west coast (where he’s from). I have been a haunt actor for 3 years, and a film and horror enthusiast my entire life. We came to Bayville Scream Park tonight for the first time ever; based on previous bad reviews, I wasn’t expecting much…but was pleasantly VERY surprised by this haunt attraction! Do NOT listen to the bad reviews if you’re a haunt enthusiast like my fiancé and I. We understand first hand the amount of work that gets put into building a seasonal haunt like this, and we were SO impressed. The attention to detail in the haunt scenes was incredible. The props and animatronics were all TOP notch…visibly high quality, both vintage and newer pieces…as an oddities and horror memorabilia collector, I could tell, and was in awe of some of the animatronics and prop pieces included in the haunt sets. There were several stand out haunt actors, one in particular in the Asylum house that really impressed us…I wish I could remember their name, but they were an insane clown type of character towards the end of the asylum…truly excellent haunt actor that I could tell loves their job. The themed drinks at both the regular and secret bars were all delicious and pretty strong. The syringe Jell-O shots were tasty and so much fun! The food at Shipwreck restaurant was delicious, and the decor inside the restaurant itself was spectacular. The staff were all incredibly nice, accommodating, and helpful. I was so excited to learn that the owner of Bayville Scream Park also used to own Jekyll & Hyde NYC…a horror themed restaurant that I spent many days at (including my 16th birthday party) growing up…it was one of my favorite things to visit in NYC and I was literally devastated to find out they closed down after the covid shut downs. Once I was told the owner was the same, I knew why the Scream Park was SO well done and had so many impressive set builds, props, and animatronics. I would love to sit and chat with the owner sometime because I have so many ideas for future haunt builds at this place and would love to meet a fellow haunt enthusiast that I’ve unknowingly admired for so many years growing up at Jekyll & Hyde NYC! We had a blast and intend to visit Bayville Scream Park again in October! Our favorite haunts there were the Insane Asylum and Bloodworth Manor, but they were genuinely all great. We are thinking of auditioning next year!

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for horror enthusiasts and older kids who can appreciate detailed haunted attractions and don't mind premium pricing. The daytime 'Not so Scary' option works for younger children around age 8. Families should expect to pay significantly more than comparable Long Island attractions for a smaller venue with fewer rides.

ℹ️ What to Know Before You Go

💡Check website hours carefully as actual closing times may differ from posted hours
Consider the daytime 'Not so Scary' slot for children under 10
🎟️Budget extra for themed food and drinks which reviewers found good quality
🚗Expect to complete all attractions in about 15-20 minutes during slow periods

What a great time I had at Bayville Scream Park. Of the all the attractions the favorites were Bloodworth, Asylum and Uncle Needles. Took friends and my girlfriend and my girlfriend isn’t easily scared but I went this weekend and they really did scare the wits out of her. And props to the amazing acting especially our favorites was the actor in asylum with chains and a small actor in Uncle Needles blowing a whistle amazing job. The actors for us that we enjoyed also were three in Bloodworth especially one with the big kitchen knife who reminds me of Jason and Michael Myers mixed together, I think his name was Porky or Porky the legend. Thank you for the great scares. The greatest scream park or attraction on Long Island.

Went for the Not so Scary kids time slot. No actors but the staff was mostly friendly. One man had had enough for the day by the time we got there but the other 10 staff members we saw were great. Loved the decorations and the food in the tavern was good. The attractions that were open were entertaining for my 8 year old. Older kids might not have found this time slot so exciting. Overall pretty good. would like to try again when ours is older for the night attractions.

I liked certain esthetics. Went on a Thursday. There wasn't many people in general. The mansion had the most actors and decorum. The temple was basically me and my partner just wandering through a maze. it even lacked basic decor and there were only a couple actors in it. Basically was an experience and that was that. I don't recommend for the price and the strict no refund even if weather is bad
