A great magic show, loved the up close and personal relationship with the audience! We've seen several magicians and Sean-Paul does an amazing job! Looking forward to taking our 7 year old granddaughter next week, she wants to see him cut his arm off and cut the woman in half! She's hoping the ghost talker will read her mind-good luck on that one!

My husband and I tried out the escape room and loved the story that brings you back in time to solve the puzzles. I loved that it was based on a true event, too. They were easy to book, extremely friendly, fun, enthusiastic, and helpful. No detail was left unthought of! Super fun for everyone of all ages! They even gave us a magnet photo of our experience.

My friends and I went on a girls’ trip the first weekend in November. We try to go every year to some haunted hotel or ghost tour, etc., and we generally end up being disappointed. This year my friend saw an advertisement for Vince’s show and signed us up. We are so glad she did! I was selected to connect the card to it’s owner (Vince had everyone say their name and as my friend said her name it vibrated in my hand), 3 of my friends were selected to assist the spirits in selecting the medians, and 2 of my friends ended up being the medians (we had a party of 6). All of my friends experienced different interactions with the spirits at different times. I will say there are some theoretically effects, like dimming and brightening of the lights which are totally unnecessary (in my opinion). The experience is real and that can let doubt creep into your mind, so I personally would leave it out. However, it was truly an amazing experience that we will do again soon. We loved it!

The best wildlife refuge experience we have had! The staff were extremely knowledgeable and very kind, you can tell that they truly love what they do and take great care of all of their wildlife which included bears, big cats, a few smaller species, and a very spoiled monkey! The “retired” age animals were especially well cared for, love what they are all about and what they do for these beautiful animals!
