Fright Haven

Haunted Graveyard is a great option if you want to take your children along. Established in 1999, this haunted house was brainchild of Ernie Romegialli, whose daughter was diagnosed with Juvenile diabetes. It serves the dual purpose of giving the visitors a good scare as well donating a part of the tickets sale proceeds to the American Diabetes Association and The Juvenile Research Foundation. 

They provide a right mix of scare and fun. You will come across ghosts, goblins, witches and vampires. The horror experience is enhanced with use of fog machines and stroke lights. The set is well done and takes an hour to walk through.
