Morgantown Mall welcomes Apparition as the newest addition to the facility’s selection of entertainment options. Apparition is a multi-room haunted house designed to entertain and frighten guests.

“We are very pleased to welcome this variety of offerings to our customers. Apparition, Appalachian Golf and Appalachian Axe Company are great additions to Morgantown Mall,” said Felicia Posey, the mall’s general manager.
