Milburn's Haunted Manor
This annual Halloween haunted attraction is located in Hubbard, Oregon - about halfway between Portland and Salem. Every Halloween season, the property of Mike Milburn and his family is transformed into Milburn's Haunted Manor, which consists of various attractions outside the traditional haunted house. It got its start in 2003 as a source of added income for family vacations and has quickly gained a popular reputation throughout the state of Oregon.
Aside from raising funds for the family, the event also acts as a local fundraiser for the drama clubs at two local high schools. As result, Milburn's Haunted Manor attracts around 40-60 volunteers, including students that have already graduated but keep coming back, as well as adults that enjoy the thrill of providing the scares. To further give back to the community, the family donates the haunt to the local fire department in the off-season, to allow them to do search and rescue training.
The attraction started with the haunted house theme, but added a forest attraction in 2007 to expand their operations and offer more thrills to visitors. The site utilizes animatronics and sound and lighting effects, but relies primarily on their live actors to provide the scares. The family believes that automation and effects is helpful in setting the scene and utilizing a little misdirection, but believe the true scares come from their actors. As such, Milburn's Haunted Manor uses two to three times the amount of actors than other haunts and it appears to be effective. Aside from the growing attendance each season, the haunt has been the recipient of countless accolades and is consistently rated as one of the top haunts in the area.
The Attraction
The haunt has grown in size over the years and has quickly become a Halloween event rather than a simple attraction. The first attraction is the signature haunt, Milburn's Haunted Manor, which is more of a classic 3,000-square-foot haunted house attraction for crowds 13 and up. The next attraction is set outdoors and takes their guests into the Wicked-wood Forest - a 10-12 minute walk through a haunted forest and geared for the over-13 crowd, filled with all sorts of creatures lurking in the shadows.
In 2008, Milburn's Haunted Manor introduced two additions to the event: Boo Lane and the Last Ride. Boo Lane is also an outdoor haunted attraction geared for younger audiences and ends in a pumpkin patch where guests can pick out their own pumpkin (see details at the site below). Last Ride is coffin-ride where guests get inside a coffin and close the lid as the ride simulates their trip to the cemetery and internment six feet under ground. In addition, the haunt also offers concessions, photographs of guests's experiences, and a pumpkin patch.
