Reapers Haunted Attraction
|
|
Located on
Gibson Rd. in Chilliwack B.C.
Lisa
and Gary Moran affectionately refer to their visitors as victims. The Morans are
the brains behind the Reapers Haunted Attraction Located on Gibson Rd. in
Chilliwack B.C. which initially started to keep their own and neighborhood
children involved in a constructive activity.
So if you are looking for a real scare and have the guts, we will make sure you
get the scare you deserve. Reapers is not recommended for children under 8 years
of age at night, but see our special daytime Boo tours.
So I suggest you take the time to make the long journey to the Valley from what
I've heard it is a must for Halloween fiends.
Contact: Web
Site
Tickets:
Reapers: $10, Maze $9, For both the Reapers House and the Haunted Maze $17 (great
deal)
Schedule:
Friday-Saturday 7pm to 10pm and Sunday 7pm to 9pm and
Weekends only until October 14th then open nightly Hours 7pm to 9pm
