'TERROR ON WONDERLAND ROAD'
(fundraiser by Kashaga)
It will spook your socks off !!!
Every year Alex Bell and Cathy Barnett decorate their house, located at 1280 Wonderland Rd. in typical Halloween fashion.
The tradition, which started approximately five or six years ago, began on the inside and eventually took over the outside
of the house and the front lawn.
"Last year we did the tunnel of doom," said Barnett.This year the famously decorated house has undertaken one of it's
biggest challenges yet, creating an outdoor tour, with the help of a carnival tent, that will be sure to scare even the bravest of
souls.
"They're calling it terror on Wonderland Road this year," said Barnett.
With a tunnel that is accessed from the road, the tour includes multiple tents that participants must travel through. A work in
progress, the house will be modified right up until Oct. 31, when it will likely be viewed by hundreds of people.
"Every year it's getting to be more people. Even last year, as nasty and cold as it was, we had at least 100 cars go by. Some can't
resist and have to stop. "A popular feature of the house is a large collection of pumpkins carved by local children. Donated
by a farm in Buckhorn, the pumpkins are picked up by the couple, taken to the local schools where they are carved and then put
on display at the house. "They're displayed on the yard and we illuminate them on Halloween. Last year we had about 150
pumpkins," said Barnett.
For the first time since its creation the Halloween house will have bins located on the front lawn where participants can drop off
non-perishable items. The donations will then be given to the local food bank, said Barnett. "The food bank can always use donations,
" she said. Donations will be welcome all week starting Oct. 24 right up until Halloween night.
There is no fee to experience the Halloween house.
