October 2024 marked the third year for Bouton Fire & Rescue's Haunted Church. The crew spent several weeks in September redesigning the floor plan and rebuilding the rooms to update the haunt with new scares and features.

​

The Haunted Church is staffed by department members and their families with 100% of the proceeds going toward the addition of a third bay onto the department. In 2024, you helped us to reach our goal of $5k, getting us one step closer to being able to break ground on the new addition!

​

We had a great time scaring our friends from Dallas County EMS, a local jeep group that made us a part of their evening outing, as well as adults and kids of all ages. We're happy to adjust the scare level for your group so that young ones don't leave too frightened and teens and adults who want the full-effect get exactly that.

​

We were even joined by Local 5 News out of Des Moines who featured us in one of their evening news segments. You can watch it here.

Planning for 2025 will begin later this summer. Keep an eye on our Bouton Haunted Church Facebook page for more info!
