Had a great experience here! Needed something to do for a few hours before our resort check-in and this fit the need perfectly! We interacted with the manager a lot. She was extremely nice and helpful along with all the other staff! We did the fun pass and added on the play area! The pricing is wonderful too! Will definitely visit again if back in the area!
An amazing getaway. It's great for kids and adults, I wish they had more to do but for the price it's enjoyable for everyone, we had an issue one time with an adult running into our child on the skating rink and was extremely rude but other than that it's a fun experience lots of games, they offer food like pizza and drinks, the 3d golf is awesome, the dark ride is fun. And we have been several times and will be back!
This is a great place for a family fun day! Stuff to do for all ages very entertaining and not outrageously priced! I highly recommend the XD Dark ride. The staff was very kind and helpful! This was our first visit and we can't wait to go back!
Loved this place . Must visit if you are looking for a fun activity with friends and family! The haunted house and the dark ride were the best activities we did .
It has a range of different activities including skating (they offer supports and even scooters for beginners), minigolf, arcade games, VR games 4D X experience, a haunted house and even a bounce house for younger audiences. It is suitable for all age groups and reservations for parties are also available. In my opinion, the best activities were 3D minigolf and the haunted house. The house is different from other haunted houses as they also have live actors to increase the scare factor, while still keeping
Stopped in on a mo day while traveling back home to Indiana. It was dead because everyone else was im school and working. BUT the kids STILL had a blast. The different playing combo/packages are well worth it. Literally had something to do for every age group.. next time we are in the area, we will be stopping again.
Love this place. My kid loves it, too. Great prices and a great selection of activities for families. I could rollerskate here for HOURS. Staff seems pretty on top of stuff, too. They are good at keeping other people's kids in line. I come here even in the wintertime, always a great time!
This place is an amazing time for the family, team building, adults and children (but it is very kid friendly but i went with adults ??) The escape room is SO good. We were a party of 4. We weren't able to finish in the hour but it was so worth it. So fun!
The staff was great, the place was fun, the haunted house guy did an amazing job. When I told the kids that only one guy was behind the whole haunted house they both said it's time for that guy to get a raise! We didn't try the food, we didn't skate either but looked like fun.
Amazing experience. Found when researching our trip to port clinton. Xride was off the charts, bit short but Amazing. Haunted house was fantastic and 3d golf was a trip
Super cool place, went with my fianc? hoping to play mini golf but sadly it was under construction (but also good because it's being renovated). The guy at the front desk was super nice and gave us some other options - my fianc? settled on the haunted house attraction. I was kinda skeptical of how good it would actually be but this is legitimately one of the scarier haunted houses I have been too. I won't spoil anything but it's safe to say we were totally terrified. I would definitely recommend this place
Brian and I had an exceptional adventure! We may not have solved the puzzle completely, but we had a wonderful time doing it. And our host was excellent :-) I think her name was Haley. ?? I would absolutely recommend going. And I would absolutely go back again to see if we could solve the puzzle! ??
OMG this place was amazing!!! We had so much fun!! Took me back in the day the music black lights roller skating! Got to enjoy it with my kid and she loved it! So many games to play. Big bounce house big play area as well just all around wonderful! Beside the arcade game are pricey with coins.
Brought my tween and their friends here when Cedar Point closed most of the rollercoasters for wind. There is a nice variety of activities to keep kids of a wide age range having fun for a few hours. If we were local, we would likely come here regularly if not for the staff. From a staff perspective, the place is pretty unwelcoming upon entering the building. Instead of explaining the packages, there is a blunt listing of rules with a passive aggressive, bored tone. They did not offer to help as we tried
We had fun, it was a little crowded. Regardless of how crowded it was, i had a blast, and our kids had a blast, they would go from skating to the jungle gym over to the bounce house then back to skating. so at the end of the day, it was a great experience. I haven't been skating in over two years, the only reason I'm giving it 4 stars is because in the back of the rink the wood has warped making it difficult in that corner for some people. I would definitely recommend going.
Great location for family fun day. Classic attractions like Arcade, bounce house, and kids 2 tier Play area, but I was really excited to see they had a VR Theater Ride, VR games, putt putt and a roller rink with music playing where you can also rent a scooter to ride. They had a good selection of variety at their concession stand.
Definitely don't come here if your intention is an arcade i spent $60 on an arcade that had like 15 games all the claw machines were broken, the quarter machine doesn't give accurate tickets for coins dropped or any at all sometimes. My kid was really bummed. If you want to roller skate then this place would be cool. The playplace was dusty and didn't look clean. Once I saw the amount of games I really wanted to turn around and get my money back but we were already there for that sole purpose. The place its
Great place but If you're here for the skating, the floor on the corners are uneven and they allow scooters which is incredibly dangerous. Big metal scooters on the skating floor with people roller skating. You have kids going the wrong way on scooters and even throwing their scooters into people. I'm really surprised this place hasn't caught a lawsuit. Fix the floors and get rid of the scooters and it would be a great roller rink.
Fun for the whole family! They have so many things to do here you cant possibly do it all in one day! Decorated very well! Friendly and helpful staff too. Their pizza was actually delicious as well! And the haunted house actually scared me. The 3D golf was fun, and the kids play area and bounce houses, skating, VR games, laser maze, lets just say bring the whole family here. You will not be disappointed!
Prices are reasonable. It's very clean and maintained. We had a really fun time. There was only a few others there so everything was easily accessible. I would definitely visit again when in Sandusky!
This place was awesome. It's like everything a little kid dreams of packed inside of one building. I took my 5 year old and she had a blast. We spent hours here and did so many fun things! I purchased ?Epic? passes which included 2 slices of pizza with a 16oz. soft drink, a $10 Arcade Play Card, 3D Blacklight Mini Golf, XD Motion Theater Ride, 1 game of Virtual Reality, 2 games of Laser Maze, and Unlimited Roller Skating (which you get your choice of skates, roller blades, or a scooter for littles). Watchin
AUG 30 2021 This place was so cool! It's affordable for the amount of fun you get to have. Everything in the mini golf course glowed & was 3D. The haunted house was THE BEST HAUNT I HAVE EVER BEEN TO, and if this says anything it was better than THE SCHOOL DENT HOUSE. I was really impressed. It was fairly long & had some neat decorations & sound sensors. The motion theater ride was okay. The skates for rollerblading were uncomfortable, but then again the last time I skated was about 6 years ago. The music
Really enjoyed it the haunted house was definitely scary I wouldn't recommend to kids under the age of 10 arcade is honestly fun.
We had a blast! The haunted house got me a few times pretty good! We ended up doing way better in the arcade than we expected we had done and won a big blue horn. The VR game was fun and we had fun in the Lazer maze. My boyfriend and I used to Rollerblade alot when we were younger so it was fun to get back in a pair of blades and see how we did. I wiped out a couple times while trying to teach my daughter and my little one was doing great in skates! All around great time. They have alot to offer any family
Fun place with several things to do there. Vr and laser attractions. Roller skating with good tunes
Overall, we had fun. However, my roller skates had an odor to them so I asked when returning them if they get sanitized after every use. The worker responded with, ?Um, I think they get sprayed every once in awhile.? Shame on me for not saying anything when I picked them up, but this seems like a serious health violation.
We took our 4 year old here and he absolutely enjoyed himself as we was happy that he was happy, the people are extremely friendly, could not have asked for nicer people. If you have a young child I recommend this place.
Amazing place for kids. Play area and bounce house for little children and the arcade and skate area for kids of all ages is great! Haunted house was awesome. There is a snack bar and a Lazer tag as well.
Super fun! A variety of ages in our group and everyone really enjoyed themselves! We bought the epic package and had fun for hours!
The escape room here is really fun. We had to have a lot of help but Kendell did a great job leading us through. Highly reccomend.
Good place to visit on a rainy day. Mini golf, arcade, bounce house (under 12), laser tag, VR, skating rink, and more. The golf course is kinda cheesy but fun, and the arcade prizes are goofy, but the kiddo had so much fun!
I really like that they have something for everyone! Between the attractions and variety of food, we can spend all day here. Plus the staff is great. And if you're looking for the best haunted house in the area, Ghostly Manor is it!!
The golfing was an awesome experience and one we had not had yet (it's 3D, like wear special glasses and glow)! They had scooters to rent as well as skates. Our little one LOVED the okay area and bounce houses. The arcade is a bit small but we had so much fun doing the other things we didn't even care!
amazing skate rink, food is great price and very delicious! all the workers are very sweet, and you can tell they love their job! Sierra is so sweet, and she helped me with what i needed! the bounce houses are so fun, and the play area! overall amazing place!
Kids had a blast! At a safe family friendly kid place. We will be back soon cause you are all they ask about. Thanks Ghostly Manor Crew Kudos To You All For Making Our Babies Feel Safe and Welcomed.
Cheaper than other places that share likewise theme. But just as fun for kids! Ours had a blast. Offered fun packages are per person. We bought the $30 per person pack which comes with a lot of activities including 45 tokens & two slices of pizza & a $16 OZ DRINK free! I'll add, the pizza isn't the best. My kids didn't even eat it. But they still had fun anyway. Arcade games, scooters, roller blades, and rollerblade guards for younger kids. Laser tag, VR games, HD rides food, drinks and snacks , And a haunt
Such a great place to take your kids to for a fun time and birthday celebrations! Lots of games for all the youngsters to enjoy!
We had a great time at Ghostly Manor! So many things to do. My son can't wait to go back again. I think his favorite part was the play area/bouncy houses. Mine was the XD ride! We were there for hours and would have stayed longer if we could. There were a lot of birthday parties going on and there was still plenty to do without feeling crowded.
So Much Fun! Loved the Ghostly Manor Rotfl! My 13 and 20 year old were so scary! Staff was Wonderful! Golfing, Motion picture and skating was great for my kids! Seriously, going back very soon! Had a Blast for my 47th Birthday ??????????
Overall the place is ok to have something " to do" especially with children,but if you are looking forward to an elaborate set up this is not your place. The game area is pretty small but they do have VR and Laser maze to make up for that. This place has a roller skating rink which is a plus ,mini golf was fun but pretty small as well..they have a bounce house area for smaller kids. We did not do the haunted house.
Came up in a search for nearby escape rooms. There's only one room and it wasn't worth the trip, but the center itself was. Skating rink, arcade and haunted house made it a neat visit. We ended up spending a few hours here.
4D thrill ride was awesome. Mini golf was neat in 3D. Haunted manor was great. Even the 5 and 6 yr olds liked it. Use scooters on the skating floor! Awesome! Great food. Fair prices.
a group of us did the escape room. it was a lot of fun. we had a blast!!
Our high school group had a fabulous time at the Ghostly Manor while visiting Sandusky. It was great to see all the updates and new additions since our last visit in 2015. The pizza was delicious. The establishment very clean and well maintained and its apparent that the owners take pride in their business. The employees and management were friendly and accommodating and we'll surely be back. Thank you!
Mainly for younger kids. Arcade was very small. Roller rink was spacious. Had 3d golf, VR game. Pizza looked great.
Fun for the whole family! Great party packages. The kids have so much fun here!
We went on Thursday so no crowds at all. We stayed about 2 1/2 hours and had a good time. We spent the $25 and did most of the activities including paying the extra $3 for the laser maze. The haunted house was pretty awesome! Our 13 year old was scared but she enjoyed the haunted house as well. A small pop was $1.50 and slushy was $2.00(sm). Reasonable in my opinion. The mini golf was also pretty cool. I didn't give it five stars because some of the staff was a little rude, and I felt like it coul
We took my grandson there as part of his 9th Birthday Celebration Weekend & we really enjoyed it.
Such a hidden gem! We are season pass holders for Cedar Point, so we are in this area often and never knew this place was there! Our server at Applebee's told us about it, so we decided to check it out today. We got there right at noon when they opened. We were the only family in the place for over two hours. The kids rode scooters all over the skating rink and had a blast in the arcade area. We did the virtual reality, laser maze, mini golf, and 4D Ride. The prices were fair, the prizes were reasonable, a
The hole family had a good time. Several activities to do. Employees were very helpful. This is a family fun center to have a great time .
It feels like you time traveled back into the 2000s, in the best way possible. The staff were extremely helpful and kind, especially the haunted house guy. Dude needs a raise. He made sure out handicapped family member was accommodated during the experience while still maintaining the scare factor. It was genuinely scary and all around an amazingly fun experience. The put put was very unique and fun. The 3d movie ride was cool and felt very immersive. The roller skate area was large enough for everyone to s
With the wild fire smoke traveling through the area, we tried to find indoor activities. This was a onea-stop shop. Haunted house, escape room, glow in the dark 3D mini golf and skating plus some arcades, Lazer maze, VR game and an XD motion ride. We only did the escape room and golfing and had alot of fun. Recommended for the entire family!
Always loads of fun. Very busy usually , food is a bit pricey. Good place for a birthday for kids tho
Almost like a family fun center, with a haunted house, vr games, arcade games, and mini golf.
While visiting family in Ohio we needed something to do for the kids to burn off some extra energy. Ghostly Manor was just the thing they needed. We got the Jump/Climb/Stake combo and let them decide what they wanted to do. We easily spent more than a few hours and everyone had a great time. The people there were friendly, everything was clean, and for everything included the price was well worth it.
Fun family activity center. The staff were all pleasant and helpful. Would recommend if you are in the area.
Would been great if the owner son was not putting hands on other kids necks and when told was told it's the owner son won't be back
This was so much fun, we didn't make it out but we had a great time trying! We will definitely be back
Heavy on 80s kid nostalgia in all the right ways! My kids, age 8 & 10, had a blast and I was happy seeing them enjoy a slice of how it used to be! It was $50 for a few hours of fun and they were so happy. It's a quirky set up w/ minimal staffing. You need to start each new experience at the front desk w/ tickets. Thankfully there wasn't much waiting in that process because we came mid week on a cool windy (not rainy) day, so it wasn't packed. Music overhead, cool air, smell of fresh baked pizza, black light
I had a great time, Their staff is great and very attentive .. This place is great for the whole family.. The kids enjoyed themselves. Love the bounce house I've never seen one quit like this....
Don't come find something else I came as a first timer. Got rip off will never come back did not know the hours they took my money a they closed 10 mins later. Skates are old they hurt they have no patting not clean smell bad Nice place to roller skate but bring your own stuff
Had a great time enjoying Ghostly Manor today. It was great for my 17-18 year olds, and Mom had fun too. The place has so many things to do, and it has a nostalgic feel back to simpler yet fun times. The haunted house was so fun, and the man running it was super nice and helpful. All the staff were polite, and the mini-golf, 4D ride and skating were all fun.
Great source of rainy day entertainment. My favorite part was the haunted house. The guy that was working in it was hilarious. It is more catch you off guard scary than horror scary. I had a blast.
What a blast. And staff was awesome. Food even was pretty good. Will definitely visit again.
The kids had a great time in the virtual reality games. Most places charge $10 per game but surprisingly Ghostly Manor was only $7
Absolutely add this place as a stop to your journeys and if you are a local visit more often, the prices are fair, the staff is wonderful, the atmosphere and decor are out of this world. Fantastic place to visit. Also the pizza is delicious and the whole place was just a wonderful and nostalgic experience
This was a pretty fun place. I'd give it more stars if the skates were even slightly comfortable. There was an option for scooters which made it at least a little fun for the kids. The scooters are in rough shape. A little worn out for sure which makes it difficult to skate. The floor for skating is not even and makes skating challenging for novice skaters. The haunted house was pretty cool. The kids enjoyed that. The bounce house is fun, and if I lived around here, I would definitely consider a kids' part
My boyfriend and I went to the haunted house. We couldn't stop talking about it ALL night!!! Such an AMAZING and SCARY experience!! Absolutely soo so fun - the staff really cared about giving their guests a great scare, totally worth $11. Would recommend this haunted house to EVERYONE!! Scares around every corner, you have to experience it for yourself!! Cannot wait to go back ????
Me and my family always have an outstanding time at Ghostly Manor we always do more than one activity so we have a ball and the food is great they have wings now the whole menu different we really enjoy going there I give the place 5stars it's my kids favorite spot Happy Birthday Phera
TONS of jump scares. I've been to like 12 haunts in Ohio, this one was actually REALLY good.
Wonderful time! Went as a 29yrold with my mom and future mother in law, 50s--were totally like kids again! Did the escape room (poorly, our 1st time. Tough but fun!) and the 3d roller rides. Employees were helpful and courteous-great atmosphere. This is a must do for anyone and everyone. A little of something for everyone to enjoy.
Pretty standard indoor family fun park with one exception: the haunted house. Great props and use of actors. Too scary for young children. Be prepared for jump scares, LOUD noises and tight squeezes.
Really cool place with alot to do! Arcade is kinda of expensive but everything else is worth it. My family had a blast!
Amazing! I loved all that Ghostly Manor had to offer. My kids went skating. Played VR Games, we even did an Escape Room. Snack Bar and Arcade were wonderful too!
The Escape Room was SO detailed and full of fun clues, and the Ghostly Manor is exceptionally well-done, especially as only one person operates it. My husband and I stumbled upon this place years ago and absolutely love it, as you can be any age to enjoy it. I really cannot recommend it enough- plus, it's guarded by a DRAGON!
Quick stop while staying at Great Wolf Lodge. We played 3d mini golf and spent time roller skating. Arcade, 4d theatre, Lazer maze plus more available.
The haunted house was the best. The guy working the scenes was great. Don't know how he did it but it was cool
My family and I went to ghostly Manor last weekend to go through the haunted house. The haunted house was great! But when we were purchasing our tickets I asked if there was a discount for veterans. The woman first said "no". Then she followed up with. "Unless you served." I said yes I did and she asked to see my ID. Not that I mind showing my ID. But the way she said no at first made me feel like she didn't think a woman in her 30s could be a veteran. I'm not sure I'll be going back.
We had a bad experience not enough staff to supervise all the kids they kids in the bounce house purposely jump on grandsons back and broke his scapula and ribs they make you sign a waiver saying there not responsible if you get hurt sign says a staff person should be at all stations to supervise the bounce house
We brought children 1.5, 8, 10, and 30. We all enjoyed several things that were offered. The cost of the events were and the food was very reasonable. Everything was clean. The skates were in very good shape. I would highly recommend this for family with kids of all ages.
Great place for kids to play laser tag mini golf roller skate VR. Video games haunted house lots of family fun
Pretty awesome rec. center, lots to do skating was fun ??
Nice staff, a lil twist on most indoor family places, we loved being able 2 go 2 a haunted house in July
Fun place for adults and children the haunted house is actually scary lol good job !
We were visiting Ohio from New York with family & it seemed like a fun place to visit till it was time to select something to do. I was told my 5 year old had to get the kids pass and was not allowed to get a thrill pass which excluded him from being participate in activities that his older cousins were doing as we went with a group and that he had to go into the children's areas alone. They literally told me I could not enter the play area or bounce house area to supervise him & that he had to go in alone
Fun family oriented center with something for all ages. The escape room was a good challenge. 3-D golf was a lot of fun with a group of players. V-R.games, skeet-ball and more. This is a fun place to go to when the weather may keep you inside. We'll be back.
We did the kiddy stuff, no haunted house. I have it 3 starts because the ?? roller rink floor is janky, needs smoothening, some TLC; otherwise, it would had been fun. However, the host with the most was there all by herself and she was phenomenal, wish is gotten her name. And her daughter was cutesy!
This place is so much fun!! Jump, scream, laugh, and repeat. Highly recommend!!
It’s a mix of nostalgia and high-energy fun! Many arcades blend retro classics like Pac-Man and pinball with modern VR games, racing simulators, and rhythm challenges — often with music, lights, and a social vibe.
Both can be great! Solo visits let you focus on your favorite games, while going with friends adds competition, teamwork, and laughs. Many people plan arcade meetups as a casual hangout or even date spot.
Usually just yourself and a way to pay (some arcades still use coins, others use cards or apps). If you're competitive, bring your A-game. If you're social, bring friends or meet new ones over multiplayer games.
Weekdays or early afternoons are usually less crowded — perfect for focused play. Evenings and weekends bring the buzz, especially at barcades or venues with DJs, tournaments, or themed nights.

Not at all. While many arcades are family-friendly, there are also adult-oriented ones with full bars, 18+ nights, or vintage nostalgia themes. Arcades today cater to everyone — from first-timers to lifelong gamers.

No worries — arcades are about having fun, not being perfect. Try a variety of games, ask others for tips, and remember: the vibe is more “let’s play” than “let’s win.”
Absolutely, retro games in arcades remain a thrilling draw in 2025! Classics like Pac-Man, Space Invaders, and Street Fighter II offer simple yet addictive gameplay, blending nostalgia with timeless challenge. Modern arcade cabinets often feature crisp displays and restored controls, enhancing the experience. These games thrive on quick reflexes and strategy, with vibrant pixel art and iconic soundtracks that spark joy. Arcades host tournaments and leaderboards, fostering a lively community. While modern games dominate, retro titles provide a unique, accessible thrill that keeps arcades buzzing.
