Haunted House Attractions are widely attended during the month of October by millions of Americans. Haunted House Attractions collectively generate billions of dollars in revenue and create hundreds of thousands of temporary seasonal employment opportunities for American families, thus having a profound positive affect on the U.S. economy. Attending haunted houses has become a staple “to do” as Americans celebrate the Halloween Season.
Because of this positive economic impact, and because haunted house attractions provide a unique seasonal entertainment option for the American people. We ask you to join us in standing up together and asking that NATIONAL HAUNTED HOUSE DAY be declared an official American holiday on the second Friday of October.
