The Village of Downs Haunted House was established in 1992, by three local families that wanted to provide a safe and fun activity for their families and entertain their inner child. Once the annual event became a little much for the growing families they handed the torch off to the Downs Community Fire Protection District. The fire department used the proceeds from the Haunted House as an annual fundraiser to purchase safety equipment for their volunteer firemen.
In 2007, the fire department decided to give the Haunted House back to the village to continue the annual festivities and use the proceeds to enhance all the activities hosted by the Village of Downs Events Committee. Currently there are six members on the events committee and there are eleven community wide events each year.
From the beginning the Downs Haunted House has provided a “Fright Fest” of activities that include: the haunted house, a haunted hay rack ride, concessions, bonfires, apparel sales, and queue line entertainment. In 2015, we added to our queue line entertainment by including a fire blowing clown and stilt walker.
