Haunted House Reviews
True North Bricks
“The value of the set is still excellent, and you get hours of build time. Additionally, there is a lot of nostalgia built into the kit. All the Easter eggs really add to build experience. My only complaint is the small number of Minifigures for a set this large. Throwing in... More a few more nostalgic characters would have improved that. Minifigure statues, or a suit of armor by the entrance perhaps. Overall, I am incredibly pleased with this set and I highly recommend it.”

“This is a seriously big set. At 68cm tall, it is imposing and still impresses me as I see it in my living room. The drop itself is expertly crafted and so smooth. It's a shame that there is no room to move inside the set when it's closed up, but this isn't really a problem... More when it opens up like a dolls house and everything is on display. This has been made up with so many references to old sets, which was a lot of fun to explore.”
The Brothers Brick
“The Haunted House would be an excellent set, even if it had no ride inside. The details are marvelous, and like the recent Pirates of Barracuda Bay, the nostalgic throwbacks to earlier LEGO themes are a surefire hit for any fans who grew up during the 90s. The fact that it... More has a unique and technically complex ride in its core takes this set to the next level.”
