The Bikers Who Care closed out their 2012 Bikers Who Scare Haunted House

 

Bikers Who CareClarksville, TN – The Bikers Who Care closed out the 10th annual Bikers Who Scare Haunted House last night. 667 people went to the haunted house on Halloween, having a frightfully good time as they helped the Bikers Who Care to raise money for their children’s charities. People were terrified, but it was for such a good cause.

You could tell who was scared by the looks on their faces, or by the exclamations they muttered. I heard more than one person say that they lost control of the bladder during that time in the house. Yes, it was that scary; but that is what you come to a haunted house for isn’t it.

Last night to visit the Bikers Who Care Haunted House

 

Bikers Who CareClarksville, TN – If you have not visited the Bikers Who Care Haunted House this month, you have one more opportunity to do so. The final night is tonight. The scare begins at 7:00 p.m. and ends when the final person runs screaming from the building.

This year’s House contains 15 rooms plus the vortex and a maze. The vortex by itself is worth the $10.00 admission. It will prove to be a challenge to your equilibrium. Also, you will visit a room with someone having a close encounter with a fire; a room where other people get limbs cut off; clowns; mad butchers; etc. The House has chainsaws, ghouls, zombies, a priest and other monsters ready to help you part with your sanity.
