Burbank haunted house makes a killing before Halloween

This is the big weekend for Halloween haunted houses. As I mentioned earlier, last Saturday I attended the opening of “Nightmare at the Museum,”  a delightfully ghoulish experience at 907 North California Street. A skilled crew of professionals and volunteers worked for weeks to construct this scary haunt. “Nightmare at the Museum” was open for visitors both Saturday and Sunday last weekend and made a […]
