It's quite brilliant, especially taking into account the low budget--this is a product of ingenuity rather than money, and, judging by the video, it's far more interesting than the majority of commercial haunted houses. My only criticism is the use of such a cliche as Jack the Ripper, who seems to appear in every Victorian horror or mystery story ever written, but I was on the edge of my seat for the entire section of that video, so I can only complain so much.

Machine: A Steampunk Horror Show
"Machine" is a live steampunk walk-through built by two guys in a garage, which takes audiences into a time machine and on an adrenaline-filled romp through time. Sadly, the show isn't open to the public, but they did make a video for the rest of us steampunks to enjoy.

Steampunk Haunted House
The Steampunk Haunted House is an interactive theater performance by Third Rail Productions--and it looks AWESOME! This year's theme is Then She Fell, a Lewis Carol-inspired romp through a former hospital. So it's kind of like that video game, American Mc Gee's Alice (remind me to play that and do a post on it later, it looks really cool), but in real life. I really wish I could go, but I don't think I could make it to New York and back, given the lack of vacation time in October.
