Haunted: Maze room
■ Continued from Page 7
“It’s completely dark," Hample
said. “It’s confusing because you go
through the thing holding hands in
groups of 10 or 20.”
The haunted house has been a
long-standing tradition in Eugene,
Hample added.
“I was born and raised in Eugene
and when I was in 5th or 6th grade,
I remember going to ‘Scream in the
Dark,' and now I’m 36 years old,”
he said.
Hample expects over 2,000 visi
tors to the haunted house every
night it is open, with the largest
crowd coming in on Halloween
night. “Get there early because be
tween 8 and 10 p.nr. is the busiest
time,” he said.
However, haunted house visitors
should not despair if they are stuck
in a long line.
"As you wait in line, we have
some things going on to entertain
people,” Hample said. "We have
old, spooky movies playing, like
black-and-white Frankenstein and
Dracula movies.”
Actors in monster costumes will
also roam through the crowd.
“Every once in a while, we'll turn
on the disco ball and crank up the
music for a monster dance,” ho
said.
Once in the haunted house
maze, it takes about 15 to 20 min
utes to get all the way tlirough.
Tonight the haunted house will
be open from 7 p.m. to midnight.
Saturday night the house will be
open from 7 to 10 p.m.
