Looking for some fun, scary ways to help you celebrate Halloween?
Mission has plenty of ways to get your blood flowing and the hairs standing up on the back of your neck.
If you are a hard-core horror fan, head down to the Mission Raceway and check out the Mission Arts Council’s Haunted Attraction, inspired by The Walking Dead
This is sure to get you into the Halloween spirit – full of terrifying sights and sounds, when you least expect it.
Zombies are everywhere as you work your way through this terrifying, but enjoyable, experience. It’s not for the squeamish.
The Haunted Attraction is running tonight (Friday) as well as Oct. 28-31 from 7-10 p.m. The exhibit is located at the eastern side of the grounds of Mission Raceway Park at 32670 Dyke Rd.
If zombies aren’t your cup of tea, then maybe the chills of a haunted house are more to your taste.
The Mission Nightmare Haunted House returns for another week of fun and screams. The house opened last week and runs every night up to and including Oct. 30 from 7 to 10 p.m.
The event takes place at the Silverdale Hall (8760 McLean St.).
This is the ultimate scary haunted house as visitors roam in the dark to view strange and terrifying live-action displays.
Bring your friends and family to enjoy being scared and by doing so give to the food bank. The haunted house is presented by Mission Station 3 firefighters and the Silverdale Community Hall.
A Halloween Haunted House also takes place at a home at 31974 Hillcrest Ave. It is open from 6 to 9 p.m. on Halloween (Monday, Oct. 31), and admission is free.
