I really feel like the first part of the house is a lot more horrific. The dilapidated convalescent home, the senile elderly overridden by a nightmare they can't even comprehend and couldn't stop if they did... It feels like it has a lot more impact. Once you're into the magic christmas lights portion, it sorta devolves into a B-Movie creature feature and isn't nearly so unsettling. Still a neat maze though.
