Reapers Haunted Attraction
|
|
Located on
Gibson Rd. in Chilliwack B.C.
 Lisa
and Gary Moran are the brains behind the Reapers Haunted Attraction. Over the
past decade they have been told that their Halloween themed attraction rivals
scare houses at Disneyland and other professional entertainment parks in the
United States and Canada.
Each haunting season they wait for unsuspecting prey to enter their lair of
terror. I have been there on nights when the screaming is so loud I found myself
jumping just waiting in line for a ghoul dog at the concession. What makes this
attraction so freaky compared to others, one I think the crew behind Reapers are
(demented) and the set designs they have come up with are awesome. Both the
Moran boys, James and Dave, get a kick out of scaring adults to the point where
they are screaming like little kids. Now there is a whole crew of Halloween
enthusiast's that come out and volunteer their time and help to build on this
event and the Moran's are overwhelmed with their commitment and they make this
event what it is.
So if you are looking for a real scare and have the guts, we will make sure you
get the scare you deserve. Reapers is not recommended for children under 8 years
of age at night, but see our special daytime Boo tours.
So I suggest you take the time to make the long journey to the Valley from what
I've heard it is a must for Halloween fiends.
