Haunted Houses

Horror in the Mine at Country Boy Mine – Postponed Until 2021

Your job is to not only escape from these horrors, but also stop them taking over the world. Meet the Doctor, the Morgue Assistant and join the Marshal’s posse, go 1000 feet into the mine of horror, try to stay alive long enough to stop the world being taken over. Recommended for ages 12+.
