Rogers' Haunted Hill kicks off Halloween festivities

PLYMOUTH – What started as a small haunted barn for the Plymouth area youth group has grown into a frightful event drawing nearly 1,000 people.

On Friday and Saturday, the Rogers Family invites the public to take a tour of their haunted hill, and thrills and chills are sure to follow.

Rogers’ Haunted Hill has been an annual event in Plymouth that has been open to the public for the last four years – for two years before that the event was held exclusively for the Plymouth Youth Group. The Rogers family will be charging $5 for admission this year, and they say all the proceeds are used to make the event bigger and scarier the following year.

In years past, the Rogers family held the haunted house in a barn on their property, but over the years the event outgrew the barn. So for the first time, the event will be taking place outside on the top of “Rogers’ Haunted Hill.”

Because of the new location, Rogers’ Haunted Hill will be slightly different this year. After registration, participants will be invited to enjoy coffee, hot chocolate and a snack, before they are taken on a hay ride that will bring them up the hill to the new event location. This year, the Haunted Hill will have approximately 23 different rooms for people to walk through with chills in every corner.
