Monster Bash Inc will post announcements and information important to students, parents and volunteers on this page. Please return here regularly to check for new information.

1. Celebrate! On September 1, 2024 the Minnesota Haunted Houses website posted their Best Haunt in Minnesota award for the 2023 season, and for the 6th consecutive year, Monster Bash was #1! These awards are all because of how great all of our students, parents and volunteers are! All your efforts help to make the Haunts better and better, and have gotten the word out that Monster Bash Haunted Houses are scary fun and worth the trip to Harmony, which bring in the great crowds of people, which ultimately supports Music, Theater and the Arts! New Life Cemetery also was our first to eclipse 3000 guests, and had many remarking how INTENSE that haunt was! This continues to be a TERRIFIC event! Let's take it to another level! (note that sometime near the end of August 2025 or the early part of September 2025, we'll find out if we had another award-winning effort with Monster Bash 12: The Master's Mansion, so be watching for that around the same time that we'll be building the next Haunted House!)

2. Another thing to Celebrate! After a record night for attendance on Saturday, October 26th (2024), The Master's Mansion Haunted House ultimately set a new revenue record for a Haunted House season! So many people (many of whom waited in line for up to 3 hours on that crazy Saturday) loved the efforts of the families and our actors! Super job everyone!

3. More to Celebrate! Brennus and Alex qualified for the State Speech Meet! The Class A State competition will be at Shakopee High School on Friday, April 25th! We're all cheering you on!

4. More Fire! Fandazzi Fire had great performances on Saturday, October 26 (2024) on a gorgeous night. You can see pictures and video of them on the Monster Bash 12: The Master's Mansion's Media page!

5. The next Haunted House has a name!! The next Haunted House will be called: Monster Bash 13: Where's Alice? which will have an Alice in Wonderland theme! It should be another fantastic Haunt in October 2025! We can't wait for everyone to help build and work the scarefloor for another fun season of scaring people!

6. We are still looking to set the theme for Monster Bash #14, for October 2026! Let us know your thoughts! Even better, come up with a general plan for how the Haunted House might flow! What scares might be where! Decorations to use! We want to know your spooky scare plans!

7. Be on the watch for our annual Family Planning Meeting! We'll be talking about the Haunt's Alice in Wonderland theme, the room plans for the Haunt, have families sign up for rooms and jobs, and recently provide the wall build dates! Usually we have that meeting sometime in the latter half of May, so that date will be determined soon!
