Neos2: Went by the site today--alas the Nightmare is gone and it appears the old Fine Shirt factory may not be recognizable soon. Thanks for all the visits, personal notes, and great logs!

Geocache Description:

The cache is located in an urban setting with permission of the property owner. There is no need to pay an entrance fee to find the cache. Please be respectful and watchful of muggles, especially those who appear to be zombies!

The building at this location has led an interesting history.

Originally the M. Fine & Sons Manufacturing Company owned the building. When they relocated to New Albany, the building served as a warehouse.

It was purchased in 1995 and opened a mere 66 days later as a haunted house of the sort my brother used to love to attend. Unfortunately for me, John and his friend Sean were also terrified of these places, and made me take them through. They spent the entire trip with their noses pushed firmly between my should-blades, using me to shield them from the ghouls and ghosts who leaped from every dark corner.

The property had not been used for a couple of years when I first tried to get permission to place this cache. Amazingly, the property was sold during the time I was trying to get permission, and I had to start over again with the new owner. The location once again is home to a seasonal business, and caching here in the months leading up to Oct 31st may require you to plan the time of your visit carefully.
Thanks to new owner Terry Campbell, for permission to place this geocache! 1-18-2010 Update for post-season visitors: Although there is a truck parked across the entrance gate to discourage drive in visitors, you may walk in to the lot to geocache.
