Rogers Haunted Hill opens Friday

NORWICH – Anybody who thinks they won’t be scared of Rogers Haunted Hill should ask to walk through it with Deb.

“They usually wind up holding my hand,” said Deb Thompson, a founder and organizer of the event, referring to the tough-minded who turn weak just a few feet into the dark tunnel in the woods.

The 6th Annual Rogers Haunted Hill is running Friday and Saturday on the Hopkins Crandall Road in Smyrna near the Plymouth town line. It opens at 7 p.m. both nights and goes until the last person crawls out (literally).

“If you like being scared, then come on up,” said organizer and co-founder Shelly Rogers, who owns the Haunted Hill property with her husband Dale. “If you don’t, come anyway, because you’re the ones we want.”

The hill is home to roughly 25 chambers of horrors. The Rogers have added some high-tech scares this year, but say the forest is what really gets people.

“People are more afraid of it when they think about going out into the middle of the woods at night,” said Thompson.
