OHIO VALLEY HAUNTS

- 2005 HAUNT AWARDS- Selecting a "Haunt of the Year" winner was especially difficult this year, as it's tough to separate the leaders of the pack. New for 2005 is the top "outdoor" haunt award, which includes trails and hayrides.  These regularly score lower than the top  indoor attractions, and having their own award will allow them the opportunity to be recognized for a job well done.  Outdoor haunts  remain eligible for the overall list, if they score high enough to make it.  The 2005 winners are listed below: TOP 2005 HAUNTED ATTRACTIONS The Best of 2005 (top 13) Best Haunted Trail 1.    Baxter Avenue Morgue - Louisville, KY Nightmare Forest - Louisville KY 2.    House of Nightmares - Mt.
