I LOVE Ghoul Brothers! In my opinion, it’s the best haunt in the area, and I go to all the big ones around (factory of terror, haunted schoolhouse & laboratory, carnival of terror, fortress of fear, etc.) Ghoul Brothers is scary every time. There are always a ton of actors in the house, and they even have multiple boo holes so they can get you several times!

Cindy’s Insider Ohio Tips
Haunted houses are so much fun for the brave and adventurous types! If you are planning a visit to a haunted house with the family, be sure to check the website to see the ages that will enjoy the attraction and not be too frightened! If your teenager plans to visit a haunted house without you, I recommend checking online for parent waivers. Many haunted houses require signed parent waivers for underage visitors to participate.
