DESCRIPTION: This Halloween Haunt - operated by Eric Maurin, a professional magician, and Rick Ouwerkerk, an aerospace engineer - was good enough to earn high praise from the folks who used to run Hallowed Haunting Grounds. While you take a tour around the old house not too far from the Pacific Ocean, a series of incredible ghostly manifestations tingle your senses, some in the yard and some in the windows. The effects are subtle but spooky, emphasizing imagination and atmosphere instead of shock. This is definitely a haunt that demands a careful gaze and patient appreciation, so that the phantoms may appear at their leisure.
OTHER INFORMATION: The House is set in a quite residential neighborhood, so keep the noise down. The lines tend to be long, and it may be hard to find parking on the block where the house is situated, but this one is worth the effort.
REVIEWS: Read an account of our visit to the haunt’s 2007 presentation.
