Haunted hall benefits local charitiesOct. 21, 2010 KALAMAZOO--Western Michigan University students will premier a new spinoff to the popular "Resident Evil" series of horror films Thursday through Saturday, Oct. 28-30. The students and WMU's Residence Halls Association will be presenting Residence Hall Evil, their version of a haunted house. Students stage a haunted house event for young and old each Halloween. The public has a night of frightful fun, and the proceeds benefit local charities. This year's haunting will take place in Eldridge-Fox Hall from 8 to 10 p.m. Thursday and 9 p.m. to midnight Friday and Saturday. For children age 15 and under, a mini-haunted hall as well as games and art activities will be available from 7 to 9 p.m. Friday and Saturday. The entry fee on Friday and Saturday is $6 or three canned goods per person. The fee on discount Thursday is $5 or two canned goods per person. The food collected will be donated to the Kalamazoo Gospel Mission while the money collected will go to Big Brothers Big Sisters. Eldridge-Fox Hall is situated off of the University's Ring Road on East Pond Drive at the north end of WMU's main campus. Visit Facilities Management online for interactive and printable campus maps.
