A new deadly virus is spreading quickly in Minnesota and fears it could lead to a worldwide pandemic are mounting. Dr. Amy G. Dala, renowned virologist at the University of Nowhere, is missing. Her recent research on “zombie” viruses (ancient frozen viruses brought back to life) sparked controversy in the scientific community. Dala brazenly obtained samples of viruses frozen for millennia in mammals buried in the now melting Siberian permafrost. She refused to heed warnings of reanimating her possibly dangerous zombie virus specimens and was terminated from her position at the university. Epidemiologist and virologists believe Dala inadvertently created the Minnesota epidemic during a secret research process. An anonymous tip left at the Department of Health, spotted Dr. Dala at the abandoned Salem Hills Hospital. Your group, a crew of CDC epidemiologists, was sent to investigate, discover the new virus, find patient zero, and help stop the epidemic.

Closing November 2 - Our first year, we didn't theme out the haunted house. We just put together a series of scares which our volunteer students, families and locals had fun building. A lot of people enjoyed the experience of having some fun and getting more than a few scares out of the efforts of all those volunteers, especially because we initially had the Haunted House available every day of the week! The non-themed event had all sorts of strange rooms and encounters. From a living room that looked normal, but wasn't, to a mad scientist and a Frankenstein-like monster (ours might have been taller than the Karloff original!), a torture chamber and the rather spooky-weird "baked potato room". There was a little something for everyone! Strangely (in hindsight), we didn't have a clown this first year. Those would come later, however! For this and the first 5 years, we held the haunt at the Harmony Community Center in the Gym. We had to work fast, and built the haunt in just 3 days with all the volunteers. We then tore down after the last guest left on Halloween so the Community Center could have the use of their gym again! After tear-down during those first years, all our props, walls and costumes had to be transported to remote storage areas for the off-season, thanks to helpful local organizations and churches. You may have noticed that the pumpkin that was used for the logo of our first-ever Haunted House effort looks familiar? That's because we liked the pumpkin so much, it has since been "adopted" and become the main logo for the organization!
