Madd Hatters Haunt

The story of the Madd Hatters Haunt originates from the 18th century when mercury salts were used to make felt for fancy hats. The process required copious amounts of the element, a substance then not understood to be as dangerous as we now know it to be.

Day after day the hat makers who handled the mercury-soaked poisoned fabric were stricken by a condition that affects the nervous systems. Those so exposed would in time develop uncontrollable twitches and trembles, making them appear demented.

Knowing the hat company would soon be closing its doors, the owner possessed by greed, quickly shifted gears and began to build walls around the newly insane.

Each season of the haunt brings a new twisted story based on history. There is nothing more scary than something based off of truth! What turn will the haunt take this year, watch for clues on our FB page starting in September.
