LATEST NEWS: Although the Hollis Halloween Fun Fair is still full-steam ahead for this year, the Hollis Haunted House has been cancelled for this yearThe smaller and friendlier Spooky Manor, which was supposed to temporarily replace the Haunted House, has also been cancelled.  The discovery of mold at HUES earlier this year meant moving the Fun Fair and Haunted House into outdoor tents.  We then discovered that fire regulations require a fire sprinkler system and fire alarm system in the Haunted House / Spooky Manor tent, due to the use of interior wall panels, and there was insufficient time to explore and implement this before October 24.  However, we will work hard over the next year to secure or create a suitable venue for us to once again present the full Haunted House in October 2010, bigger and better than ever!  In the meantime, plans are still proceeding for the exciting Hollis Halloween Fun Fair (see below).  We hope to see you there!
