Event Information: Every year a small group of adults get together for one reason, to scare the heck out of the community kids. Brian Dewey and Amy Hoverstock needed a fundraiser to help kids go on a camping trip for the Peer Leadership program 11 years ago, and they thought a Haunted House might be the ticket toward funding this trip. Since then it has grown into one of the premier events to see in the the town of Port Jervis. With the help of a theater and television production company called JAG fabrications, they have grown from a 5 room haunted attraction to a 30 room haunted attraction that encompasses a town building and 2 tents. Thousands of adults and kids have gone through this event which utilizes every dollar to give scholarships back to High School Seniors. Donations are the key to this events success with businesses like Fastenal, Lowes, Home Depot, Neversink Lumber, Hockenberry’s Towing, Summit Research Labs, Fort Knox Storage, Chef on the run, and the Erie Hotel just to name a few. Over 60 High School kids donate their time, energy, and effort to bring this event to life. Every year the theme changes, and they way they enter and exit changes, making this completely different every year. This years event will focus on the Paranormal, the purge, and a dark maze. The kids are involved in every aspect of the haunt, from the build,costumes to makeup.
WE offer no scare experiences for the weak at heart.
With the assistance of a local scenery / special effects shop, we are able to create an incredible and affordable evening.
We have been told we compare with many of the large premier attractions, costing over $40 per person. Most of our scares and suspense are done live. the students truly enjoy participating in this and create both memories and friends.
