From Scott and Tanya: We can't check FB easily right now, so if you're asking what you can do to help, this is what you can do:
- Repost that we are selling all the props, costumes, and other haunt paraphernalia asap.
- Come over any time today, and bring your gloves, mud boots and muscles. We need to move a lot of things very quickly.
- Bring us cardboard cartons and boxes.
Thank you so much. Our grief and shock over these losses is eased by how you, our community of friends and loves ones, are reaching out to us. Leave a Comment Go to Post...
