About Us:
Though we like to hang around in cemeteries a lot, we're still a pretty lively bunch. Terror in the Dark is designed as a Halloween activity for middle school, high school, and college students to provide alternative entertainment during the Halloween season.  Our mission is to encourage and support youth programs and education financially.

Terror in the Dark Haunted House is a non-profit organization. Eighty percent of profits raised by our events is contributed to children-related programs in Rapid City, SD. The rest is retained for the support of future fund raisers.

Since 1998 Terror in the Dark has been a Halloween event teens and grown-ups alike have looked forward to every year. Founded by members from the Black Hills Renaissance Society (BHRS), the original intention of the haunted house was to gather funds for a renaissance faire for the Black Hills Area. Little did the members of BHRS know what a hit and how much fun putting on the haunted house would be.

Today our volunteers are a diverse mix of people, a couple who have been doing this since day one and some who are brand new. We all have one common interest in mind, and that's making the Halloween season as much fun as possible for kids and adults alike!
