Bloodview Haunted House - Full Behind the Scenes Walk-through & Mission Statement
Thank you to Bloodview for allowing me into their world!

Taken from the Bloodview Haunted House website, About Bloodview:
Scaring for Charity for over 40 years!
From the moment you cross the archway, you will be surrounded by monsters. They interact with you, they hunt you, they entertain you. This is what sets Bloodview apart from other haunts in the area. It is presented by the Broadview Heights Lions Club and produced by The Legion of Terror, the world's oldest horror improv acting, SFX makeup, and production company.
The house is located in Broadview Heights, Ohio, and is the only charity haunt in Cuyahoga County. Located twenty minutes from both Cleveland and Akron, it’s easy to find and well worth the trip. Bloodview is more than just a Haunted House, it is a Interactive Dark Experience where you become a part of the ever-changing show.
Since 1980, when the Broadview Heights Lions Club opened the original Bloodview Haunted House, the reason behind the scare has been the same: to raise money for local and national causes. Every actor and makeup artist is a volunteer; Lions Clubs from around the area help out with the staffing of the Witches Roost ticket booth and parking lot. There are no salaries or hourly wages; everyone there is working for the 501( c)3 non-profits that are united in the art of the scare.
​Please be aware that the show can be graphic and is not recommend for those with heart conditions, expecting mothers, children under 14 years old, or anyone with an adverse reaction to strobes and artificial fog. We are open rain or shine, we have a covered waiting area, plenty of parking, food vendor and bathroom facilities on site. So if you plan to visit a Haunted Attraction this Halloween season, come out to Bloodview Haunted House, where your dollars help support people in need!

    I was writing for a Wilmington, DE publication called Fine Times when the Waitresses played the Chestnut Cabaret in Philly. Their drummer Billy Ficca was from Wilmington and also married Patty later on. I have a great shot from when I interviewed Patty after the show. She was very nice to talk to and left us way too soon.

    So, are there actually people living around the area now? I was under the impression that no one really lived there anymore, but that street that has the "satanic" church on it looks really nice and lived in, or on.

    I'm a Duran Duran fan but I'm absolutely fascinated with Patty Donahue. I have their rare 2 CD collection titled Just Desserts. I live here in Cleveland and have visited her grave a couple times. My 1st factory job was on the street next to Holy Cross. She is buried right by the hotel in the upper left hand corner of the cemetery . Fascinating life. I wonder if she ever met Kip Winger in Alice Cooper's band or Chrissy Hynde of the Pretenders. She's interviewed on You Tube on the Morning exchange. Awesome gal. The bass line in Christmas Wrapping is just mind blowing. I play bass myself.

    I work there! I live in Richfield & got some of the story of its history. It's a centennial building, back in the early 1900s. In our area, you cannot tear down or rebuild on the property. It used to be an open air market 6 months out of the year with fresh produce, meat and essentials grown and made in our area. It became Country Counter then Fazio's before Giant Eagle purchased it in the late 90s. Also, It has a fireplace in produce area, a 2 lane bowling alley upstairs and is haunted. I work in the front end. If you notice, the "i" in "Thanks for shopping" has been painted on because they no longer make letters like that anymore. Please come visit our awesome store. It's like stepping back in time but also you get a personal shopping experience, which is no longer a thing, unfortunately.
