It's definitely more "hype" than genuinely haunted, if we're being honest. The special effects are pretty good, they've really gone all out on the theming. But… it’s ultimately a scream park. Think Universal Studios’ Halloween Horror Nights, but maybe a bit smaller scale. You'll jump, you might even shriek, but you won't be losing sleep over it afterwards. Unless your tolerance for jump scares is, like, ridiculously low. Worth it for a fun night out with friends, especially if you’re into that sort of thing. But don't expect any actual paranormal activity.

Their black pepper crab is fantastic, and it uses mud crab, which is different enough that it might be okay for you. Worth checking with them directly about the preparation though, to be safe. Otherwise, their other meat dishes – I recall a really good pork dish, possibly a stir-fry? – tend to be quite flavorful and substantial. It's not just a seafood place, but obviously, that's their main draw. So, you should be fine getting a solid meal even without the crab. Don't worry too much, just confirm the ingredients beforehand.
