BRUSSELS - The ghosts, ghouls, goblins and other creatures of the night that haunted the campground near the Southern Door School grounds every October for 14 years are disappearing into the mist.
The Haunted Mansion, the successful and popular annual haunted house that raised thousands of dollars for a variety of clubs and programs at Southern Door, is permanently closed after organizers for the all-volunteer effort were unable to find new people to join its core leadership team and take the reins.
The phrase "all-volunteer effort" is the major reason the Haunted Mansion nevermore will send shivers down the spines of thousands of visitors each fall.
