The Halloween season has begun and there are many different haunted houses to visit to celebrate this spooky season. Here is a list of 5 haunted house attractions you could visit:

1. Nightmare on 13th is the first haunt on the list. This spooky place is located in Salt Lake City. Nightmare On 13th features a castle look with many props and actors. With this much to offer you’re in for a scare. Maddi Egget, a student at Grantsville High School is quoted as saying, “It was scary and it was my first time at a haunted House. I was at the front of our groups line and all of us were scared and everyone was using me as a human shield.” This place should give a good scare. This haunted house costs about 25$ to enter.

2. Next on our list is Asylum 49. Asylum is located in Tooele City and actually used to be a residential building turned hospital with a history of storing bodies in a room until a mortician could sign off on the dead. Some say that this location is genuinely haunted with many people giving their accounts on ghosts being mischievous and even a Ghost Adventures episode on the location. Pricing starts at 10$.

3. The third on this list is Fear Factory. Fear Factory was once the Portland Cement Company which has a long history of paranormal activity and accidents dating back to the late 1800’s. Fear Factory is a large building with 6 buildings and some up to 6 stories. If you choose Fear Factory, expect a long night of screams! Pricing starts at 19$ and you can buy tickets in advance on their website.

4. On the fourth choice we have Frightmares which takes place within the Lagoon Amusement park. Lagoon features a wide array of haunts with different buildings within the park having haunts. As well as having scares there’s also actors roaming the park scaring park visitors and giving a good immersion. In between getting scared witless you can ride the many rides in the park for more thrills. You need to buy a day pass in order to get in costing 95$ making this the most expensive pick on this list.

5. Last on this list we have Night Stalkers Haunted Trail. This attraction has a spooky corn maze with many scares contained within. There are actors within the corn maze scaring anyone who dares enter. Here you’re trapped with the horror and its more difficult to run away. Prices start at about 10$.

This life of a musician is fulfilling, it is what makes him as a person, it is the reason he gets out of bed, music is the reason he feels content, music is the reason he is the person he is now. Jackson jenkins is a senior at Grantsville High School, he is a part of the school marching band as well as his own band with some of the school faculty. He is a very accomplished musician and has the instruments to prove it. Jackson shreds, his live for guitar and the sharp feeling that he gets when he plays it comes back to when he was a little kid playing at the school of rock, a school specifically for the most gifted musicians, he plays his heart to the floor every day, and he doesn't stop because he feels there would be somethings missing The goals that he has for his music are nothing short of challenging, Jackson has been shredding every day for the past 8 years for at least an hour. He says he gets caught up in the moment of playing the guitar so much that it is usually more than an hour. When he is playing music he says it is like he's speaking another language, he feels like he is creating something new and better than he has before every time he plays. The sense of accomplishment he feels every time he even puts a finger on his guitar that is always kept nice and clean for the next time he wants to make the music language that he is creating.
