Take heed, Evidence of Evil will soon return By Nicole Zappone Town Times
Halloween is right around the corner, and Lyman Orchards in Middlefield is getting ready for the return of Evidence of Evil, an interactive haunted attraction. “You will not be walking through our show like a typical haunted house,” Evidence of Evil owner Dave Belas said. “You will be asked to participate in scenes, ranging from chanting along with actors, moving objects, or finding a key element to move onto the next scene.”
Torrison Stone & Garden is an award-winning landscape construction company specializing in stone and landscape design, installation and maintenance. Since 2000, the family-owned business has worked with homeowners across Connecticut to improve upon and create outdoor living spaces that set the bar for the industry through quality craftsmanship, attention to detail and superior customer service.
The attraction is rated PG-13, and four new areas have been added this year: The Harvest, Toxic Waste, PANIC, and one more area which will be announced in the coming days. Belas said some may find Evidence of Evil to be physically demanding, as guests may need to crawl. He says to be prepared for anything, but to remember that nothing will harm or touch you inside the attraction. If the experience gets too spooky, guests can exit it early and will be Evidence of Evil returns Sept. 30. See Evidence of Evil, A5
“As a business that specializes in the design and construction of outdoor living spaces, installing two EV charging systems enhances our underlying company mission of creating a beautiful, earth-friendly environment,” said Tyler Gerry, owner of Torrison Stone & Garden. “Since most of our customers are already green-minded, having the chargers onsite gives them another reason to visit us.”
