Here Are The Cedar Valley Haunted Houses Still Happening In 2020!

It's my favorite time of year... spooky season! If you know me, you know I am obsessed with all things Halloween. From ghosts to goblins to monsters to candy to scary stories to horror movies and especially haunted houses! I mean I even went to at least 4 haunted houses in the Cedar Valley last year! However with the pandemic going on, will there be any haunted houses this year?!

Of course this is great news for all those who love to be scared or love scaring their friends.
