F.O.R. Maricopa benefited from a haunted house in Acacia Crossings. Submitted photo

Maricopa resident Matthew Eisele created a haunted house out of his Acacia Crossings home for Halloween.

It wasn’t just for fun. It also benefited F.O.R. Maricopa. Entry to the haunted house styled after the Friday the 13th movie set was a donated item of nonperishable food.

“I do have a desire to thank the residents of Maricopa for coming out and bringing their donations to support the local food bank of Maricopa,” Eisele said.

The haunted house created a line down the block of trick-or-treaters willing to be terrified. It also created a stack of food. He said several hundred people came through.

“We are thinking of doing this again next year, but with a different theme and different style,” Eisele said.
