Sioux Falls’ Jaycees Are Bringing the Frights All Month Long
A Sioux Empire Tradition: The Haunted Feargrounds
Since 1974, the Sioux Falls Jaycees have made a habit of scaring the snot out of people every October. That's right, a lot of people in the Sioux Empire head into the holiday season completely snotless!
This year will be no exception. The Jaycees Haunted Feargrounds will open their spooky doors this Friday, October 9, and continue the haunting all the way through Halloween night on Saturday, October 31.
