Healdton, OK--A volunteer group of Healdton residents are giving up some of their time this for the month of Halloween to raise some much needed funds for their local Pee Wee football team.
Volunteer Corey Howser says he hopes that at the end of the month the haunted house that he and several others worked on for more then two weeks will raise enough money for some new equipment for his team.
The location they chose to host the haunted house already has a spooky past, it at one time used served as the towns funeral home.
Many of the parents are happy to help for such a great cause since the Healdton sports program is a positive way for the kids to spend their time and stay out of trouble.
Price for admission is only five dollars and every penny brought in goes to the team's list of needs. The haunted house is located in downtown Healdton and will be open Mon-Sat until the end of the month.
