Fillmore Middle School ASB hosted their annual Haunted House October 27, 28, and 31st during both lunches. Students spent the past two weeks collecting costumes, props and set pieces for their Haunted House, creating a creepy setting for their scares. Students stayed late working after school every day last week to get the whole thing ready to go on time. ASB student Anthony Morales commented, “It’s better than I thought it would be.”

The result of all their hard work? Popular acclaim. Each day lines of students waiting to be scared snaked around the pavilion at lunch. In fact, so many students wanted to attend, each day hopeful students had to be turned away. “It’s Scary!” says Maria Alvarado, 8th grader.

Staff members across the board pitched in to make the event a success, AP Mrs. Roderick, counselor Mrs. Wyand, teachers Mrs. Rice and Mrs. Beeh, supervisor Mrs. Arroyo, and secretary Mrs. Ecklund. “The kids just loved it- they were talking about it all day. Each day it was different, and the kids were excited to go again, and see how it had changed” said Mrs. Arroyo.
