Face your fears and phobias in the Quincy Mine Haunted Hoist House this weekend. Michigan Tech University’s Theatre Department is curating lights, sounds and animations to resurrect the Halloween spirit of the Keweenaw. Instead of relying on traditional haunted house themes, this event focuses on evoking unsettling sensations through creepy elements like clowns, mannequins and other dolls – and eerie visuals. Visitors will travel through dimly lit, spooky themed sections, encountering unsettling sounds, and multiple automated effects that will heighten the scare factor. It’s a unique way to see the mine, taking you through closed off areas you wouldn’t see
