*CLOSED DUE TO INCLEMENT WEATHER TONIGHT 10/30*
We have been following the weather radar and unfortunately we have to make the call to shutdown for tonight due to unsafe conditions. Aside from the rain, the wind gusts are predicted to be well over 25mph and with our tents, there is no way we can operate with that potential danger.
We will HATE to close another night and disappoint more people, after everything this season, but we can't be irresponsible and risk the safety of our family or yours.
If you have tickets for tonight, please check your email and there will be instructions regarding rescheduling for tomorrow. As of right now, tomorrow night will be our last night of the season. If that changes (we are currently trying to see if we can open on 11/1 for a rain date show), we will post an update here.
As always, we appreciate you all and your understanding that we are bound to err on the side of caution when the safety of all our family, volunteers, and guests are at stake.
Tomorrow night will be tons of fun, we can't wait to celebrate Halloween officially with all of you!
WELCOME to the manor
Come visit Genoa Township's very own family-run, family-friendly neighborhood haunt and test your courage.
We'll be waiting for you...
Tickets are free, but required for entry, please reserve your spot!
SAVE SLAYBROOK MANOR!
PLEASE SIGN &
SHARE OUR PETITION
We need everyone in our community that loves our mission to show lawmakers that you support us!
**PLEASE NOTE**
Any donations made on the Change.org website do not go to support our mission, they go directly to keeping the Change.org site running
If you are residents of Genoa Township, please know that this year is an election year and your Trustees should know that you support our mission. We have been disappointed and surprised by their lack of care and involvement during this whole ordeal and expected local elected officials to be more supportive of an event that brings so much joy to their own community.
If you could spare a moment to call/email them and let them know we are providing something that our community wants and supports, it would be extremely helpful in our ongoing task of trying to convince the Township in November to write provisions into the code that allows charitable community-driven events like us to safely and freely operate while also having a clear path to compliance and reasonable regulations to follow so that people who simply want to give something to our community can all be held to the same high standards.

A PASSION PROJECT FROM OUR FAMILY TO YOURS
Slaybrook Manor opened its doors officially for the first time
in 2024. This passion project features over five dozen hand
made props, animatronics, detailed sets and practical effects
all constructed by a husband and wife team (with some help from local artists, small business owners, creators and their toddler) to provide our beloved Genoa Township and Westerville with a fun and exciting experience that is appropriate for the whole family.
Our work continues to be motivated by a love for large scale arts and crafts, providing clean family fun during a season that can sometimes not be fun for all ages, building up our community and raising money for various charitable causes.

WE NEED YOUR DONATIONS
This year we tried to move to charging a small fee for tickets in order to limit attendees (and avoid large crowds like we had last year) while ensuring we can be financially sustained enough to continue running the haunt and raise real money for our local charities. Unfortunately, that got us in trouble with zoning in our township so we are back to running on donations only this season!
As long as Genoa Township allows it, we will still try to offer ticketed timeslots in an attempt at controlling the crowds. Reserving a ticketed slot, still helps us prepare for how many guests to expect in a night and we are going to do our best to stay under 350 guests/night to avoid long waits.
Please consider donating a minimum of $10/ticket this year so that we can keep serving our beloved community! Thank you!
