September 28, 2016Amazing party.....Amazing people
This company has gone above and beyond what I could have expected. They are so talented and captivating. The kids loved every minute they were here. Darth Vader and the Jedi were amazing and the kids really felt like they were part of a true Star Wars story. Put your mind at ease with this company, they do a fantastic job!

September 9, 2015BEST BIRTHDAY PARTY EVER!
I would highly recommend SPE!!!! My son Alexander said the best part of his birthday was meeting Superman and Batman. He keeps laughing about how he kicked so hard he almost knocked Superman down the hill. And his cousin is still practicing his newly learned superhero skills. They were very professional and did a phenomenal job despite the summer heat! Everyone at the party was raving about their performance. They were able to keep a group of 6 year old boys and girls entertained for a whole hour which is no easy task! SPE made my son's 6th birthday one to remember!!!!

April 2, 2015Spiderman was a hit for my 5 year old
We had first met the superheroes at the Cleveland Zoo Boo at the Zoo. My son turned 5 this past January and knew we just had to hire one of the superheroes. When asked who his favorite was, he enthusiastically said "Spiderman"!
Booking through SPE was very easy and they were very accommodating with my questions and requests. Spiderman actually came to my son's school at Goddard so there were some rules he had to follow but no issues there!
Jake was our Spiderman. He was fantastic!!! He truly made my son feel special while at the same time including all of his other classmates. He stayed true to character and really had a lot of patience with these kids. My son kept on tapping him to ask questions or tell him something and he took it like a champ. I would definitely hire these guys again. In fact, a friend of mine has already booked Anna and Elsa for her daughter's bday party and my son's school booked a superhero for one of their summer programs:)

November 18, 2014Awesome Star Wars Party!!!
Aaron (Anakin Skywalker) and Jacob (Obi Wan Kenobi) were awesome! Adults and children were impressed with the quality, expertise, and professionalism of the characters and their performance. We were all mesmerized by the stunt show. My boys and their friends were thrilled, and speechless, when Anakin and Obi walked through the door. This was, by far, the best birthday party ever thanks to Aaron and Jacob!!

Testimonials
Thank you! You did a great job and the kids had a blast! My son is still talking about how he took down Venom, and has watched the video of it over and over again today.

Spiderman came to my daughter's birthday party and he was wonderful. He had lively music and he did all of the poses. The children were very excited about all of the activities that he lined up for them. For example, he painted their faces, asked them Spidey trivia questions, answered questions, signed autographs, posed for pictures, etc. The children raved about his visit. It added a lot of value to the Birthday party. This was a party my daughter will never forget.

I booked Spider Man for a birthday party. He arrived promptly and ready for action. He was charismatic and engaging as he introduced games (complete with popular prizes), told tales of his super hero exploits and posed for pictures. He worked hard to engage even the shyest of partygoers in a skit and posed for pictures looking just like the real thing. Spidey fielded questions from the kids like a pro and demonstrated poise and professionalism, staying in character right up to the end. I highly recommend Spectacular Party Entertainment and can guarantee I will book another event!
