The House of Shadows is an interactive haunted attraction / fund raiser for the Boys & Girls Club of Sparta. We take a 'reported haunted' former infirmary of the Wisconsin State Child Center and turn it into a haunted house each year for your spooktacular pleasure. The Not So Scary attraction is suitable for the faint of heart where the ghouls are still sleeping and a flashlight is provided to help guide your way. The Very Scary attraction finds the ghouls wide awake and daring you to enter!

We had the best time! The actors were great, the rooms looked amazing! You could see the hard work that went into the haunt!!! Great job to all of you! I LOVED that you combined The House of Shadows and The Onalaska Jacees, brought it to another level!

We decided to go opening weekend this year. The whole House is changed. We were lost as to where we were but the path was great! People showing up from hidden doors was a welcome not welcome surprise as it was an unexpected scare. Outside was a bit different and definitely not the same calm were expecting. Hope they go back to the calm as we felt it gave us more fear going in. The outside team almost took our fear and we did not get the same fear going in as were got scares outside. Overall a great House. The Onalaksa team infiltrated but their style is not the level of House of Shadows and may have skewed the House of Shadows. Not sure how we felt about the infiltration.

Each room has a different theme and every year the rooms change so it's never the same experience twice!

My family went through the not scary show last year when our kids were younger and they loved it! This year we went through the very scary show and WOW! So many different rooms that are all their own design. Not many characters screamed but rather were speaking. The concession trailer was great. It was really hard to believe the whole haunted house is all volunteer and no paid staff.

My family and I have been coming to this place every year for 4 years now. Every year they have a different theme. Some years are scarier than others but its always a great time. They have a heated tent with an old scary movie playing while you wait. Your group gets a # and you wait for them to call you so no waiting in line. One year we went they had the paranormal team there showing pictures of the house after they investigated it. It is ACTUALLY haunted by the spirits of children. Super cool.
