No effects tonight

It has started to rain and it looks like it is going to pour later.  To keep our props safe and better able to return to work next weekend, we are not running the effects tonight.  Sorry about that everyone!

The effects are on tonight!

Was a dry day and we were able to get the effects out in the yard!  The display is running tonight.

Be sure to visit us tomorrow from 11am - 4pm for our Open House - get a chance to see behind the scenes and watch the Milwaukie High School Dance Team perform "Thriller" - this event is also a fundraiser for the dance team.

Rain Forcast all weekend!

Looks like heavy rain on Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights.   The effects will be limited to sound and fog along with a few animated pieces like the coffin.   We probably won't bring out the projectors if it is pouring rain or the coach driver.   Lights will be on as usual though and if you come out and brave the weather the display will still be great to view.


Open House this Sunday

Join us on Sunday, 11am to 4pm for our annual open house.  This is the only time we let the public on the property to view the props up close...well, closer.

The crew who built the yard will be there to answer questions and show you around.

This is also a fundraiser for the Milwaukie High School Dance Team, who are back this year and will be dancing "Thriller" in the graveyard.  All donations on this day will go directly to the dance team. 

We will hold even rain or shine.  Hope to see you there!

Our Open house will be Sunday October 14th from 11am-4pm.  The MHS Pony Prancers dance team will be performing their version of "Thriller" during the day.  They will also perform Halloween night from 5-10pm.

The Graveyard will be up soon!

We have been working all summer on new props and fixing some old ones.   We can't wait to let everyone see what we have been working on.

The Display will be up Monday October 1st with the first full weekend of effects running Fri-Sun the 5th-7th. 

Our Open House is returning Sunday October 14th 11am-4pm.  Be sure to stop by and talk with the creators of the graveyard and see behind the scenes.

The Graveyard dancers are also returning.  They will be performing during the open house and on Halloween Night.  We will provide more details soon.
