Sneak peek at Scared by the Sound Haunted House set to open Saturday in Yorktown
The family-run Scared by the Sound Haunted House started 22 years ago at Rye Playland from Pat Costello's love for decorating the house for Halloween.
With their signature hearse outside, the Costellos are transforming the indoor space previously occupied by Uncle Giuseppe's Market.
On Wednesday, Costello and his son Connor Costello were preparing the rooms at the haunted attraction's new location in Yorktown.
A variety of creepy ghouls greet visitors at the walk-through haunted house, scheduled to open for the season on Saturday.

"Scared by the Sound stands out because of our attention to detail and realism," Connor said.
Connor and his cousin, Andy Knoblauch, were putting together a ceiling to the morgue attraction on Wednesday. "We take a lot of pride into making each room a movie quality set," Connor said.
Connor walked through the legendary haunt's maze during a tour of the space. This year, they're offering a speed pass for the first time, which would allow customers to skip the lines.
