Uncommon House of Horrors

10 Days! The Uncommon House of Horrors will rise from the grave again on October 31, 2024 from 6 - 8 PM to thrill you all. We hope to scare you!

This year, things are going to be very different here at the Uncommon House of Horrors. The back yard and garage areas of the haunt are closed this year.

Our front yard display is open for viewing on October 31 during Maynard's Trick or Treat hours. We will have candy available in a tray that will be located on the door step at the right side of the house as well as some glow bracelets in a pumpkin pail. Please take a few pieces of candy and one bracelet per trick or treater when you visit.

Thank you. We really hope to return to our normal scare tactics for Halloween 2021. Have a safe, spooky, and Happy Halloween!

I'm just letting everyone know that we will be open on Halloween rain or shine. Trick or Treat hours are 6 - 8 in Maynard, but we usually keep the show running until 8:30 - 9:00 depending on how busy we are.

Hope to see you there for a scare or two!

What was your favorite costume that you've worn for Halloween?

Wow. 10 Years ago, I transformed the inside of my storage shed into this! Still one of my favorite builds.

I still have the organ and accompanying props. Maybe it will return in the future? :D

It's Thursday, so let's do another throwback video. From FOURTEEN(!) years ago, here is the first time I did a talking skeleton routine.

The premise was that two grim reapers had a scheduled vacation day and were relaxing by playing poker. The voices are cringe-worthy and the jokes are (purposely) bad. It's also the video of mine that has the most views (over 185k).

Here's a throwback to 2010 when I was at Unpleasant Street in Pembroke...

Skeletons being tortured while singing "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life" from the Monty Python movie "Life of Brian."

What is the worst candy that you ever received while trick or treating?

For this mad scientist, it was Necco wafers. 🤮

For people who were unable to make it this year, I did a quick walk through the yard and garage in the daylight hours. Enjoy!
