The Catholic Youth Organization is hosting its annual Hays Haunted Hotel charity in downtown Hays.
Each October, the CYO puts on the Haunted Hotel to raise funds for various causes the church supports.
This year’s haunted house is for all those up to the fright and boasts a spooky carnival theme: The circus is here.
Jaci Vonlintel, who went through the house with a group of friends, said that it was a really fun experience and that she would rate the event, “a ten out of ten, would go again.”
“Not knowing what’s next is the scariest part,” Jaci recalled.
Volunteers at the event have a lot of fun making the experience one to remember for those bold enough to brave the event.
Tickets for the Haunted Hotel are $10 and the showings are located at 1108 Main St. from 7 pm-11 pm.
The remaining CYO haunted house events will be held Fridays and Saturdays on the 21st/22nd and 28th/29th of this month. There will be a kids-friendly event on the 30th.
Information about the Hays CYO Haunted House and CYO events can be found on their Instagram and Facebook accounts.
