SMYRNA – 2013 marked the tenth successful year of a Chenango county's very house of horrors, and for 2014 Rogers Haunted Hill shows no signs of slowing down.

Scheduled for this upcoming weekend, the Rogers family along with about 40 friends and community volunteers, will offer up their brand of spook and gore which serves as one of the most sought-out Halloween events in the county for thrill seekers of all ages – within reason.

With October being National Breast Cancer Awareness month, it should be noted that the chills and screams aren't completely in vain; the family brings community members together for a common cause – raising money for those with cancer and for cancer research.

Beverly Rogers started the event for Town of Plymouth families, but soon found that by word-of-mouth the event increased in demand an popularity. Since then, the event has grown incrementally every year since its inception.

“We decided to keep it so it was family orientated around here. So if it is a family of four they can afford to come," Rogers said. "We do get a lot, people come from all over."
