The same scary objects are in the house so can still be frightening for some children.
Friendly-faced greeters without Halloween masks are in each room of the house passing out treats to visitors similar to trick-or-treating (protective face masks will be worn at all times).
Children can play seek-and-find with pictures of the annual Haunted House mascot as they move through the rooms of the house to help play up the fun of each room.
Each room also features a Halloween-related fun fact to ask your child such as “how many bones are in the human body?” (A: 206!)
AAA Insurance’s Frightening Hours ($9)
Hours:
- Thursday-Saturday, 4-9 p.m.
- Closed Mondays and Tuesdays
Includes spooky music and minimal lighting.
Haunters hide throughout the house to jump out and scare unsuspecting visitors.
Although visual effects are used to maximize the scare experience, the frightening factor of the Haunted House focuses more on the “startle” rather than gore.
Many visitors will scream with surprise or fear as they move throughout the house.
