Halloween Productions takes giving people nightmares very seriously. The company runs several local haunts, the most frightening of which is Creepyworld, billed as America’s Biggest Haunted Screampark. It’s 13 attractions in one, including two new ones this year, Whispering Winds Cemetery and the Doll House Haunted Mansion, built at a cost of $300,000. For the owners, it will be money well spent if they can make you pee your pants.
