Escape-It Stratford brings new frights to its annual haunted house

By: Nichele Butcher-Bontrup

Halloween enthusiasts, thrill-seekers and brave souls alike are invited to experience a new level of fright as Escape-It Stratford returns with its annual Haunted House, opening Oct. 17.

This year, visitors can expect a fresh take on the terrifying tradition, with new creatures, spooky features and exciting surprises lurking around every corner.

In a major change to this year's production, the familiar face of the resident clown has officially been retired, making way for a brand-new character ready to take centre stage. With a revamped lineup of creepy characters and eerie additions, even returning visitors won't know what awaits them in the darkness.

Whether you're looking for a milder Halloween thrill or a full-blown fright, Escape-It Stratford has something for everyone. Those who prefer a less intense experience can visit Tuesday through Thursday from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m., while those seeking a more terrifying adventure can brave the haunt Friday through Sunday from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m.

With Halloween approaching, Escape-It Stratford is ready to welcome visitors for another season of screams, suspense and unforgettable memories.

The question is: Are you brave enough to enter?
