Thank you to everyone, from our guests to our fabulous volunteers, for another scare-filled season supporting music, theater and the arts!
Haunted High was our 4th Haunted House built at the Harmony Community Center. Once again we brought in the walls, props and equipment from our donated storage areas around the area and did the build and decorating in three short days! This Haunt took up every last inch of the gymnasium in the Community Center, including the old stage area! For additional details about this Haunt, please see the Haunted High entry on our History page!
On October 18, 2015, the PostBulletin visited the Monster Bash Haunted House during preparations of putting on an evening of scares for Monster Bash IV: Haunted High. We were still doing the Haunts in the Harmony Community Center (the old Harmony Elementary School) at the time, and for the make-up and hairdo work, we were allowed to use one of the old classrooms (which were now offices and meeting spaces) to get the actors ready for the evening. The video that was a part of the article is below!

This is the video that was included in the PostBulletin write-up about Haunted High (see above).
It's a great video that shows a lot of the prep that goes into any given night of the Haunted Houses!
Some Pictures!
Not a lot, but some pictures that we thought were lost to history that were found so we can share them with you here!
The entry for Haunted High was created with the old Harmony High School main entrance as an inspiration (that entry is no longer used these days, and while the building is still a High School, it's now Fillmore Central High School), and we had an old school bell get rung just as you entered. After that went off, you had to go past a couple of creepy things (which would have been on your right in the picture you'll see of the entrance area) before you got to your "classroom" where the not very teacher-like teacher ordered you to go to the office - which is where your unpleasant adventure through the halls of this poor excuse for a school began on your way to meet the absolute worst/creepiest/awful principal of all time...and the final ghastly twist that awaited you there!
