The Haunted forest: Halloween attraction causes real-life horror

Halloween is coming up, and what better way to celebrate the season than a spine-chilling forest full of frightening monsters? The "Haunted Forest" in Big Stone Gap, located on the town's campus of Mountain Empire Community College, is among the many Halloween-themed attractions scattered across the country.

The "Haunted Forest" of Big Stone Gap costs $10 per person and will be up and running Fridays and Saturdays through the end of October from 7-11 p.m. The Haunted Forest is recommended for age 10 and up. All proceeds will benefit student scholarships and funding for club activities at MECC. This is an amazing way to celebrate the season of scares and get a bloodcurdling experience in a dark and gloomy forest. 

I went to the "Haunted Forest" this past Saturday, and my life became a horror movie as soon as I entered the attraction. Each year the forest turns into all new terrors that will make you scream. Come to this outstanding scream-fest located on campus at MECC. Be prepared to have nightmares.
