(Batesville, IN) – Tomorrow night is your second and final chance this year to experience the Trail of Fear at Brum Woods in Batesville.

It benefits Cierra’s Club – the organization that brought you Fear Factory in previous years to provide a safe entertainment choice for teens that do not include drugs or alcohol.

Cierra’s Club was founded after its namesake, Cierra Adams, died from a drug overdose on her 18th birthday.

Fear Factory was named the best haunted house in Indiana three times but was one of the many casualties of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Mary Ellen Rippe is one of the organizers of the outdoor haunted trail. She says a number of high school students have joined adults in the community in playing the role of scary creatures along Lena’s Trail.

If you dare to enter, Trail of Fear is open from 7 to 10 tomorrow night.

Admission is $10 cash per person.
