This is a narrative and actor driven haunt with lots of theatrics. It doesn't quite have the spectacle, huge animatronics, or bloody/gory sets of other places, but a lot of thought and care was put into the story and theming. I really like how everything was fairly cohesive and tied together with time travel using some great special effects. The sets are very immersive and detailed with great use of vertical space. There was a high density of talented actors who actually seem like they enjoy their work and were fun to interact with (many didn't all just pop out then disappear). Some other haunts have low energy actors who don't try very hard. There are plenty of animatronics which are used very effectively, just not many huge ones. I like that part of the sets are outside, the moonlight adds to the creepy atmosphere. The first section took about 20-25 min to walk through, then there's a "Purgatory" area where you can buy food, sit down, or use the restroom. The 2nd section ("The Rift") was about 10-15 min long including an outdoor trail. The fast pass was worth it even on a Thurs night, the regular line had more than 5x the number of people. This is my 2nd favorite haunt in Indy area after Nightware on Edgewood, I prefer Edgewood for the extra immersion and interactivity, but Thirteenth Hour has better storytelling.
