| Biography
by Jim - Editor and Webmaster, Ohio Valley Haunts |
| Welcome
to Ohio Valley Haunts - the tri-state's most trusted name in haunt related
journalism. We're glad you're here! |
| OVH
is a haunted attraction promotion and review group descended from a gathering
of "haunted house" enthusiasts. |
| Our
"team" anually toured as many of the yearly "scares" as we could
find, and it was my job to write about our experiences |
| for
various print publications that employed me at the time. We've worked
in haunts, decorated our homes, and continued the |
| traditions
of Halloween we fell in love with as kids. Back in "the day" as many
as 10 or 20 of us at a time would get together every |
| weekend
in October and "a haunting we would go!" Those treasured memories
include the legendary WSAI Haunted Houses, Night |
| of
Fright, Nightmare Estates, and a spooky ol' bus ride down a winding hill
to The Loveland Castle that once bounced a girlfriend off |
| her
seat and into the aisle! Nearly ten years ago, the Internet revolution
took my often buried stories from the obscurity of limited |
| newspaper
circulation and introduced them to the world when Gary began posting them
as topics of interest on forums and message |
| boards
of the attractions we visited, as well as on my personal homepages under
the banner of OHIO VALLEY HAUNTS! We aquired our |
| own
domain name in 2006 with links originating from prominent sites like
Scary Ohio, cincinnati.com, etc. The purpose of OVH is |
| to
promote the business while educating the general public in order to assist
readers in spending their entertainment dollar wisely! |
| Almost
70 different Haunts were visited on these pages one year ago, making OHIO
VALLEY the largest media group of its kind! |
| We're
here to acknowledge the deserving, assist others in growing and improving,
and to help you, our fans enjoy some of the best |
| entertainment
the season has to offer! We freely provide individualized pages specific
to each particular haunt we visit, where |
| you'll
find location, admission, contact information, detailed descriptions and
opinions, as well as links to official attraction |
| websites
in our area. OVH is based in Cincinnati, and proudly serves Ohio,
Kentucky, and Indiana. It's my hope that through the |
| writings
on these pages that I'm able to inspire some of you to organize family
and friends, and get out and enjoy some of the FUN |
| this
industry I love has to offor for yourselves. Afterall that's how
Ohio Valley Haunts was born! Invitations, review requests |
| comments,
photos, suggestions and questions in general are welcome, and may be submitted
