Dent Schoolhouse
Address: 5963 Harrison Ave, Cincinnati OH 45248 Website:Dent Schoolhouse
Like the Queen Mary, this is a real haunted location. In 1894 the Dent Public School was open, but in 1942 several students, mysteriously vanished. In 1945, 1952 and 1955, more students went missing. After students began to complain about strange smells, the basement was found covered with the decaying remains of the missing students. They were killed by Charlie, the janitor. This place sure knows how to make the place even more haunted.
Chris Birkett's Haunted Graveyard, began as a small display in 1986, starting out with only a pumpkin patch and a few gravestones.
In 2001, Chris Birkett and his cousin Shawn Silberblatt increased the display and designed "The Haunted Graveyard presents Halloween Town" based on Halloween Town from the movie "The Nightmare before Christmas” directed by Tim Burton.
Since then it has become a free to the public, 13 minute long Haunted House, with 26 scare actors and has approx 3000 visitors a night.
It is a five (5) night event from October 27th - 31st, 2018 and runs from 06:30 PM to 10:00 PM.
It runs on donations and as it takes a lot of time, energy and commitment to make things like this happen, there is a suggested donation of at least $5.
