The Joy of Horror at Nyeste Manor

Over 375 people were able to have a real live experience of fun horror at Nyeste Manor Haunted House in Vegreville on October 29, 30, and 31.

This was a fundraising project for Vegreville Food Bank where this year they raised around three carts of food and generated $81.05 in cash donations.

When asked how much preparation this project takes, Derek Nyeste said, “The planning is usually months in advance but there are always changes and tweaks that occur at the last minute.

A great deal of community effort and support were involved with this venture so I would like to express my gratitude to all the individuals and businesses who helped with this project.”

This event also had a free draw for a $150 gift card to Petro Canada where Derek pulled out the name of the winner on Nov. 2 which was Ariel Fleming.
