The
Carnival of Horrors History
The Carnival of Horrors started out as a single haunted
house way back in 1990 by a teenager named Ryan Pluta, this
was called The Haunted Crypt and was located at a small
campground in Medina, Ohio. Over the years the event grew
and grew, until The Carnival of Horrors was born.
The original Carnival of Horrors opened in 1998 at The
Medina County Fairgrounds and Pluta's dream was achieved.
The Carnival of Horrors quickly became Northeast Ohio's
#1 rated haunted attraction. Featured in virtually every
newspaper and on every news and radio station for their
superior reputation and ability to scare, The Carnival of
Horrors rapidly built a huge fan base. However, in 2000,
a problem with E.coli was reported at The Medina County
Fairgrounds and The Carnival of Horrors was forced to shut
down in the interest of public safety. But the event survived.
In 2001, The Carnival of Horrors found its new home at
Wildwood Waterpark in Columbia Station. After another successful
event and thousands of satisfied customers the Carnival
was preparing to continue to bring safe and terrifying fun
to Northeast Ohio in 2002.
However, in 2002, two juveniles illegally entered the haunted
attraction in July 2002 and set it ablaze. Destroying everything
that the event producers and dedicated kids of Northeast
Ohio had worked on so diligently to create.
BUT EVIL NEVER DIES!
Then in 2003, The Carnival of Horrors returned and has
proven itself to be everything it was before and much, much more.
The event that haunted Northeast Ohio at The Medina County
Fairgrounds from 1998 through 2000 and at Wildwood Waterpark
in 2001 is back. Now at Blossom Music Center with all of
the scares that made us famous, The Carnival of Horrors
has created so many new scares and attractions, that you
have to see it to believe it.
A special
thanks to all who have supported us through the years.
