We find it amazing how there are very cool things happening just under our noses. One we learnt about last year is the Halloween House of Horrors that literally happens within walking distance from where ILiveInEastVan is based. A Vancouver couple, Shawn and Trina Rundgren, married on Halloween in 2016. They celebrate their anniversary a little different than most folks though. They started celebrating their anniversary with small Halloween themed family celebrations. With their love of Halloween, the event grew over the years to a haunted house decked out with actors and a few other surprises. Everyone is invited to come share in the celebration. In lieu of charging for admission, the couple raises funds and food for the Vancouver Food Bank. If you want to share in the Halloween fun, bring your donation of cash/food to 2270 Skipper Place which is located in SE Vancouver below Marine Drive (between Victoria Drive and Elliott Street). The Vancouver House of Horrors will be operating on the following days:
Friday, October 25th
Frightful Friday
6:00 pm – 11:00 pm
Saturday, October 26th
Scary Saturday
6:00 pm – 11:00 pm
Sunday, October 27th

ALL Day
Thursday, October 31st
Halloween Night

As this is a residential neighbourhood with many young families, please be mindful of those that live in the area if driving through the area. There are limited sidewalks. There is free parking on East Kent Avenue North between Elliott and Portside other than a short hill, it is easy walking distance to the event. Lastly, please respect the hours they have posted. And most importantly, have fun! To learn more, you can check them out on Instagram @VancouverHorrorHouse.
