SPECIAL EVENT OCT 12th

Make a donation to the American Cancer Society and “Hire” a Ghostbuster to escort you and your group through The Mortuary! When you do, you’ll receive a certificate which you can then present at the front door to summon a Ghostbuster to lead the way! General Admission or VIPs don’t matter. Our Ghostbusters serve all who donate!

The Ghostbusters are a “No Scare” indicator to our creatures of the night inside, as the Ghostbusters are there to protect their employer guests. This way, guests with small children or those with anxiety conditions can still enjoy the Haunt just without the intense scare. Interaction between Ghostbusters and our undead is fun watching the Ghostbuster winning and driving the “baddie” away.

Remember, all donations at The Ghostbusters Table for this event will be going to the American Cancer Society.

In Remembrance…

The Mortuary has lost one of its own. People in the haunt industry are known to form close knit families. We create tribes. Joe Nameth was part of the Mortuary tribe. He was a good, reliable man. He was a hard worker and looked out for his fellow haunt performers. He was more than just a co-worker. Joe was a friend to all. He will be missed by his Mortuary family more than these words can ever say.

Rest in Peace, Joe.

"This is a really great haunt! I've been to many and this is a very unique one. Since it's inside a house the ups and downs make it feel very long and it's easy to lose your bearings, which is a good thing. This is a really excellent haunt and I highly recommend it!"Teegan L
