BOOOWAAHHAAHAA. What good is having a Webblog during October without listing the top scariest Houses and Attractions around Portland? So, here it is my top 11 list of places to go and things to do when the leaves are falling and the sun is out, but its kinda chilly and you get to wrap yourself in a cozy sweater coat and go outside to breathe in large gulps of fresh, crisp air (pre-Mt. St. Helens) and do a little dance if you're so inclined:
1. 13th Door Haunted House - 10125 SW Washington Square Rd, Tigard, Oregon / 503.730.4579 [I have not gone, but have heard good things about this one - it is in an old theater that is claimed to be truly haunted!]
2. Baron Von Goolo's Museum of Horrors & Freakshow of Freakish Freaks -MARINE DRIVE/JANTZEN BEACH/Take I-5 North to Exit 308 [Just went to this last week, and it was good. The props and background were cool. However, I thought some parts were too dark to be able to see some of the effects]
3. Catacombs of Darkness -The Oregon School of the Deaf, 999 Locust Street NE, Salem Oregon [Have not been]
4. Dr. Saito's Screamland - Oaks Park, in Sellwood [Went to last year, and will go again this year - love the dude with a chainsaw -my 14 yr old son actually scared him last year! - ha ha]
5. House of Midnight - Family Fun Center, Bullwinkles, Wilsonville [This has previously been in West Linn, but has moved this year]
6. Rossi's Haunted Hayride- 3839 Ne 122
Portland Oregon 97220 [Haven't been. You can tell me all about it]
7. Sandy Mountain Festival Halloween Spook Trail - 13220 SE 362nd Ave, Boring, (503)668-5900 [Haven't been - please post comments!]
8. Scream At The Beach- Jantzen Beach, Portland [See Baron Von Goolo's comment about]
9. Mulburn's Haunted Mansion11503 Broadacres Rd NE, Hubbard, Oregon 97032, 503-982-1232 [Haven't been. Tell me about it if you go]
10. Hoffman's Dairy Farm 6815 S. Knights Bridge Road ~ Canby, Oregon 97013, (503) 266-4703 ~[It just isn't October without going to this place for my family. Love to see the prize winning largest pumpkins and the corn maze is a must. And they have the most wonderful gift shop and expresso!!! You won't be dissappointed - oh and you can get your pumpkins here too!!! Maybe I'll see you there.]
11. Wenzel Farm Haunted Fantasy Trail 19754 South Ridge Road, Oregon City, OR 97045, 503.631.2047 [Great especially for the younger kids. Inexpensive refreshments. Idea - make it pizza night: take the kids to this and then out to your favorite pizza place, and it will become a welcome annual family event. They also have a X-mas event, and the lights are awesome!]
As I find more, I will add. Have a Safe and Happy Haunting!!!!
