Haunted House In Abingdon Helps Two Charities For Halloween
A haunted house in Abingdon is taking donations on weekends for two causes. It also offers a craft event and features live actors.
ABINGDON, MD — Walking up to one Abingdon home is designed to be a horrifying experience. For Halloween, the yard has transformed to recreate scenes from classic horror movies, including an interactive Carnevil.
"We build a lot of our own props," Amanda Ehinger said.
Live actors will add to the spooky vibe on Saturday nights, according to Ehinger.
