Cretaceous Crematorium

Cretaceous Crematorium Our mission is simple: build community, spark joy, and give back—one scream at a time. The creator, Aubrey grew up loving Halloween.

Cretaceous Crematoriums is a free haunted house for the neighborhood and community to enjoy. Her family has been heavily involved in the arts since her formative years and she gets her love of Halloween specifically from her Mother. Aubrey is the owner, designer, builder and overall creator of the haunted house. She does it all, starting in January she begins the design process, as soon as the war

mer weather rolls in, she's in her garage building all the props for that years theme. Aubrey uses her passion of the macabre to help the community by raising funds for local charities. Her haunted house has grown over the years and is now a 400sqft double tent with multiple “scare” rooms. Cretaceous Crematoriums recognizes the majority of the children visiting will be under 10 years old. This means the haunted house is generally age appropriate and is less scary and more just fun. However Aubrey encourages parents to go through first ensuring their littles won't be too scared. The house will be open the weekend before Halloween and Halloween night.

🎉 We’ve officially passed $750 at the close of night two! 🎉
That means we’ve already beaten last year’s total — and the best is yet to come! 💚💀

I have to give the biggest thank you to my amazing husband — the creative force and muscle behind so much of this haunt. From late-night builds and rewiring lights to moving walls, fixing props, and keeping me sane through the chaos — you’re the heartbeat of this whole event. 💚⚡🧟‍♂️

A huge thank-you as well to my incredible parents and sister from another mister and my niecy-poo— for setting up the raffle and drink tables, running errands, hauling gear, and keeping everything organized and on track. You’re the ultimate behind-the-scenes heroes, and I couldn’t do this without you. 💪🖤

And of course, thank you to my in-laws and our amazing neighbors who’ve jumped in to help with setup, teardown, and last-minute fixes these first two nights — your support means everything! 👻🎃

We’re heading into Halloween night — our biggest night of them all! 🎃👀 Come see the monsters one more time and help us raise even more for Animal Friends Alliance! 🐾💚

💜 And finally, to everyone who’s come out so far along with all my out of state supporters— thank you for your smiles, your support, your donations, and your spooky spirit. You make all the work worth it. 💜
