In 1902 the Vancouver Elks lodge was established.. due to popularity, it grew and moved to a bigger building. The spirits followed us there. Proven to be haunted by paranormal activity groups. We have transformed the basement based on  your nightmares coming to life. The whispers… are they actors? Or are they the spirits themselves? The cool breath on your neck? The feeling of insanity slowly taking over your thoughts..?  Are you brave enough to attempt what most fear? Try it…. I dare you..

Dead Zone Haunted House is West Virginia’s premier haunted attraction. Located on Charleston’s historic east end, The Dead Zone is a multi-level venue with three haunted attractions in one location. Each attraction is designed to attack all your senses while making your way through tight corridors. What sets Dead Zone apart from other haunted attractions is that we allow our staff to physically interact with our customers

Every year on the last weekend in October we put on the Kenduskeag Haunted House in order to raise money for our Recreation Department. We all have a lot of fun decorating and setting up. Any questions feel free to ask!!

Over two acres of Halloween decorations await our guests. Don’t let the warm fuzzy decorations from the safety of your car fool you, if you want the candy, it’s a quarter mile through the haunted swamp! As you follow the luminaries towards the woods and cross the bridge into the swamp. Darkness will surround you and the cold swamp air will chill you to your bones, oh by the way, they will be waiting for you!!

It all started as a simple Hayride. Chris and Linda Michaels were married in May of 1987 and by October of that year, the twisted side of Chris began to surface. His idea of a hayride for friends and family that Halloween would eventually lead to what we have today, Nightmares Haunted House. Which by the way, happens to be the highest rated haunted house in four states.HHawards15

Starting at a farm where Chris grew up near Cave Springs, the hayride would travel to Osage Creek where they would have a bon fire and roast marshmallows and hot dogs. The turnout was good and the hayride evolved each year adding scary stories and simple scares. A cousin on a horse dressed as a confederate soldier, an uncle with his head through a hot dog table were just a few of the early scares. Continuing to grow his passion to scare people, Chris added friends to hide along the route and in a cemetery to scare the hayride passengers on the way to the bonfire. In 1994, the scares were ramped up with the addition of Randy Gaudian and he has been a scare partner ever since.

As the years went on, the weather proved to be occasionally uncooperative so the Hayride became a haunted house set up at Chris and Linda’s home in Rogers. Now the Michaels family with Randy and friends ramped things up for all who dare to visit and visit they did. One room became too small and soon the garage and then the back yard were dedicated to the Haunted House. Popularity grew and available space didn’t so it was time for another move, this time to an unused part of the Kozy Heat warehouse.

With this larger space, Chris and Randy let their creativity run amuck. Donations were made to support the bonfire activities and the end of the night. More growth and more visitors quickly forced the Haunted House to move to the larger metal warehouse on the grounds operating only one weekend at Halloween. Averaging 200 to 300 visitors that weekend became very hard to handle for this small group of scare tactician’s.

12208550_10153328127752648_4476967102254604211_nIn 2003, the Haunted House partnered with the Bentonville Breakfast Lions Club and began a new era that would take this small operation to the big time. Lions Terry Franklin, Tom Gray and Ron Guadian were instrumental in this merger and continue to play key roles today. Ron funded the construction of a new building on the grounds that are today the location of Nightmares Haunted House. The first year Ron would drive the visitors to the Haunted House from Kozy Heat in a truck. The second year, Chris and Randy had the idea to incorporate a scary bus ride complete with a movie playing and a crazy bus driver that made the ride feel like a roller coaster.

The bus was a key attraction, along with a great Haunted House and the operation took off. The Lions Club handled ticket sales and concessions and put all the profits back into the community to charitable organizations in need. The actors are mostly high school kids donating their time. Over the last several years, Chris and Randy have brought on new partners who bring addition creativity and resources that have contributed to record breaking visitor counts each year. In 2015, over 13,000 people visited Nightmares Haunted House thanks to the efforts of our staff.

Yuma Nightmares Haunted House in Yuma, AZ

The Haunted House had a modest beginning in 2001 in Camelot Apartments with one person in a costume.  We then moved to Sierra Sunset behind Cibola High School and progressed to a banquet table scene full of homemade mannequins with movie icons enjoying the dinner and I (Mark) pushed all the different animatronic gadgets with my finger or triggered them with a flashlight while patrons toured the “Haunted House” in 2002.  At this point, the Haunted House was located in a small front yard. In 2003, a permanent maze was built in the garage, which lengthened the haunted house and gave us plenty of room to scare people.  Unfortunately, this made it difficult to do laundry as one would have to exit the kitchen door and walk through a maze to get to the washer and dryer, which was quite comical.  The Haunt grew over the next two years to cover most of the front yard, driveway, garage maze, and the roof utilizing 8-10 actors to provide scares. We then decided to move to a bigger and better location, because on Halloween night there were four blocks of parking tied up to get to the “Boogeyman Bungalo”. So, we ended up at our current residence on the corner of 4E and County 15½ which covers a little over 2½ acres.  This new haunt was renamed Yuma Nightmares Haunted House.  The current Haunted House takes up approximately 1 acre now.  We will probably keep the actual size of the haunted house to 1 acre as it takes 50 actors a night to cover all the areas adequately.  With the extra room we put up a 2,000 square foot tent-like structure which was a lot of fun, but we broke it down after two years in favor of a more code friendly open-air environment.  We have grown over 300 different plants in our desert lot to transform it into more of a park-like/cemetery-like environment which provides us with all kinds of fun shadows and creepy places to hide in. For the last six years, we also expanded to a Christmas event initially named “The Haunted Holiday” as we were trying to recreate what Disney was doing with their Haunted Mansion Holiday in the winter.  I strongly recommend you visit their event which runs from September to early January. Now our event utilizes 100 to 200 volunteers to fill the 50 positions per night needed to run an event this size.  Our set design is improved upon each year and our costumes become more elaborate with each season.  

Again we are always looking for fun and energetic/motivated people to become part of our core group of actors.  Please come out and see what people are talking about!

Nelson’s Pumpkin Patch in Emerado, ND

The Nelson family has proudly operated our farm since 1880.  Our pumpkin patch is located near Emerado, North Dakota.  It is owned and operated by Carrie and Todd Nelson and their three children, Tarah, Aaron, and Corey.  This summer we had a new member added to our family.  Congratulations Tarah and Jordan on your marriage.

Todd farms spring wheat, pinto beans, soy beans, corn, canola & of course pumpkins!  We also have over 700 honeybee hives that keep things buzzing around here! Carrie also keeps busy teaching second grade at a local school.

In 1996, we decided to invite our first school group out to visit the pumpkin patch hoping to give kids a taste of farm life during the harvest season.

We are very passionate about our business. We want the Pumpkin Patch to be a place for families to come spend quality time together, making lasting memories.  We also want it to be a place for kids and adults to reconnect with our agricultural heritage.

When you think about picking your perfect pumpkin to make that Jack-O-Lantern this fall, we hope you’ll bring your family to meet our family and continue to make memories with your trip to Nelson’s Pumpkin Patch! We look forward to seeing you at the patch!
