This Halloween, Laker Success Coaches, RAs, and the University Activities Board teamed up to create the 2025 Brady Haunted Hall. These students volunteered their time to create, act in, and operate the spooky event from 7:00-9:30pm on October 30th.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Haunted Hall featured an abandoned hallway with a lurking creature; an asylum; an ice-cold torture room; a spider- and bug-infested space; a pitch-dark-as-night room; a dollhouse full of nightmares; a lab where experiments turned scientists into victims; a witch's coven; a haunted pyramid; the den of a twisted serial killer; and a creepy clown birthday party.<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n
