Erebus Haunted Attraction Adds Exclusive "Shady" Section to Haunted House

Erebus Haunted Attraction, the world renown haunted attraction located in downtown Pontiac, has announced a partnership with Shady Records to represent the exclusive “Shady’s Gorridor.” In a celebration of the label’s 15th anniversary, “Shady’s Gorridor” will be a one-of-a-kind addition for the remainder of the Erebus season, a fan favorite for haunted house enthusiasts in Metro Detroit.

Ed Terebus, who along with his brother, Jim, owns and operates Erebus Haunted Attraction, welcomed the opportunity to partner with the popular international record label founded in Detroit in 1999.

“Erebus, although we’re located in Pontiac, we really consider our home as being all of Metro Detroit, serving all the people in it. We and our fans can really connect with the artists represented by Shady Records, many of whom also have strong ties to Detroit,” Terebus said. “When the opportunity presented itself, we were very excited. I think our fans will really enjoy what we have for them.”

“Shady’s Gorridor,” an added special feature to the existing haunted attraction, as described by Terebus, “is a mind-bending experience, taking them from feeling a bit woozy to plunging them into a total nightmare.”

Shady Records was founded in Detroit and has since grown into one of the most influential rap labels on the industry. In addition to its partnership with Erebus, Eminem and Shady Records will celebrate the label’s 15th anniversary with its fifteenth release on Nov. 24 of “ShadyXV”, a two-CD compilation featuring an album of the label’s greatest hits, including classics such as 50 Cent’s “In Da Club” and Eminem’s “Lose Yourself” plus an album of new material from Eminem, Slaughterhouse, Bad Meets Evil, D-12 and Yelawolf as well as special guest-artist collaborations.

Erebus Haunted Attraction, located in downtown Pontiac (18 South Perry Street) opened in 2000 and was the holder of the Guinness Book of World Record for Largest Walk Through Haunted Attraction from 2005 to 2009. Now in its final week of operation for the 2014 season, Erebus is set to close its doors on Nov. 2. For more information, hours of operation and ticket purchase, visit HauntedPontiac.com.
