“The scariest fun I’ve had on the water, like, ever! It gave me chills! Or maybe that was just the free beer warming me up if you know what I’m saying!”
“Our family loved it, kids were spooked but couldn’t stop laughing. Seriously, they kept laughing and laughing… as if possessed… truly, my blood ran cold when I saw how they laughed and laughed under the eerie light of the full moon. Oh, and the crew went all out! Loved the zombies!!”
