Bill Lacava plays a mass murderer as he drags his next victim, Ellysia Dierker, into his “room of death.” Lacava and Dierker helped run the haunted house on the eighth floor of Kerr Hall.
The eighth floor of Kerr transformed into its annual haunted house that might have left you wanting your mommy.
Kerr-Drummond might seem spooky enough already to some of its inhabitants, but for Thursday and Friday night, the eighth floor of Kerr was transformed into OSU’s own horrifying haunted house.
Hosted by the Student Union Activities Board, the haunted house was open to those brave enough to enter on terrifying Thursday and frightening Friday evening from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m.
Katie Hemphill, the outdoor committee chair, said they decided to keep the event on campus in hopes that student attendance would be higher and also to bring out more of the community.
Attendance was more than respectable. Hemphill said she estimated about 300 ghoulish visitors Thursday night alone.
The people who dared to pass through the chilling landscape were faced with a tunnel to crawl through and dark hallways with menacing creatures — formerly OSU classmates — in every room and around every corner.
Madison, an 8-year-old student of Skyline Elementary School, and her mother, Carolee, were two confident souls who took on these formidable adversaries.
Before entering the haunted house, Madison said she had “no clue” as to what to expect.
After they finished their chilling journey through the depths of terror, the mother-daughter duo disagreed about which part was the absolute scariest.
Carolee said, “The bathroom scene was scary when he came out with the chainsaw. The noise factor was very scary.”
However, Madison said she thought the most petrifying part was “probably the room that was pitch black; and they shut the door behind you, and there was a guy that kept crawling toward you.”
Whether it was a creature jumping and screaming or the startling aura created by music, this haunted house shocked many.
Madison, who had never been to a haunted house, offered some sage advice for how to go through a haunted house: “Screaming and hugging Mom.”
