If you’re looking for a haunted house experience and like to be a bit charitable, consider stopping by the Sinister Cinema out front of 2829 Mo. Saturday night.

Guests can get a good scare by walking through a movie screen and into their very own horror show for just $3 a trip. And, when the fear dies away, they can feel all warm and fuzzy because their entry fee will be on its way to the Lawrence Humane Society as soon as possible.

The home’s owners, Tim and Sherry Emerson, owners of Pet World, 711 W. 23rd, have held a haunted house for years, but this is the first time there’s a designated fee and donation system. They also decided to have a night just for the kids, donations optional.

The haunted house is open to the public (i.e. adults) from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. Saturday night. The minimum donation is $3 and no alcohol is allowed. On Monday night, the haunted house will be open to trick-or-treaters ages 13 and under. On Monday, there will be no cost.
