DreamFrights Haunted House Invites You to Choose Your Fright Level...

Who doesn't love a spooky story on a cool autumn night, with leaves blowing, and pumpkins grinning? This year, DreamWrights Center for Community Arts will be telling a theatrically haunted house story: DreamFrights! Designed by Ray Olewiler, this 350 foot haunted house maze will employ many theatrical effects to appeal to the senses. DreamFrights design volunteer and York City Solicitor, Jason Sabol explains, "You don't find many haunted houses produced by a theater, so our technical ability to use lights, sounds, sets, and actors to create a frightening and fun - or mostly fun for the younger kids - walkthrough is at a higher level than your everyday local haunted house production. Not only that, the location itself is perfect! DreamWrights is going to be transformed into a creepy old theater and it certainly doesn't hurt that we already have a resident ghost - or two!"

Concerned about it being too scary? Don't be! DreamFrights will be performing at different levels of fright, so this is an event that the whole family can enjoy. DreamFrights starts off with the scare level ramped up the eve of Friday, October 26 from 7:00 - 9:00pm. So, the suggested age for that evening is 13+. But on Saturday, October 27 from 2:00 - 4:00pm DreamFrights will have a walkthrough designed for young children under age 7 where it will be more entertaining and humorous than scary. From 4:30 - 6:30pm, DreamFrights will crank the scares up a bit for kids between the ages of 7 and 12 (suggested). Then DreamFrights will go all out with frights from 7:00 - 9:00pm for the teenage and adult crowd!

Sabol says, "We wanted kids of all ages to be able to enjoy one of the best Halloween traditions, but at the same time, we wanted to make sure that it was scary enough for older kids to enjoy it. That's how we came up the three levels of terror for the different age groups. We can make the haunted house as scary or mild as we want. So for older kids, we can amp up the terror - and blood - while the little ones still get a fun maze walkthrough. It really is the best of both worlds."

DreamFrights Haunted House Fundraiser will begin spooking people on Friday, October 28 from 7:00-9:00 pm at the menacing level. Younger kids may prefer the mild fright level on Saturday, October 29 from 2:00 - 4:00pm. Medium frightfulness can be found from 4:30 - 6:30pm followed by menacing 7:00 - 9:00pm. Cost is $10.00 per person. Tickets are good for any of the 4 open house times and are available online through October 27 at 4pm or at the door. Proceeds will benefit DreamWrights. Suggested fright guidelines: Mild - under age 7, Medium - 12 and under, Menacing - 13 and up.
