The ARTfactory will host its inaugural haunted house, Factory of Fear: Where Nightmares are Forged, on Friday and Saturday.

The ARTfactory's building, which many believe is haunted, will be transformed into different levels of scariness for visitors to enjoy. Ahyrel Tinker, director of education at the ARTfactory, created the haunted house.

"There’s nothing like this downtown and our community of spooky season lovers need something Manassas strong to haunt them this season," Tinker said. "We listened to the feedback from last year’s sold-out Haunted Hallows event, and decided to ramp up the scare factor."
