Dates: Oct. 18 & 19, 25 – 27, 30 & 31 From 8PM – Midnight or later

Chamber of Terror is a high intensity scare that’s not suitable for those under 8 or the faint of heart. Tight spaces, mazes, and about a 30 minute walk through. Definitely worth the drive. Have been told it’s better than Howl-O-Scream’s haunted houses. **Suggested donation: $5

This Haunted House has been created around a fictionalized Cemetery and its evil Spirits. Read how they describe Hellview on their on website: ”Some theorize that the graveyard itself is actually its own pocket dimension that is trying to keep the evil forces trapped in its own walls.” This is an intense experience for children and adults. ** Admission: Free (donations appreciated).

There are spooky tombstones, life-size evil statues, gross rotting corpses and scary skeletal remains. Children under 13 must be accompanied by an adult. Make sure you get in line by 9:15.
