Sean Carroll (Rochester, N.Y.) -- Among the Halloween attractions in Rochester this year, there’s a "haunted house" in a building some believe is really haunted.

A month from now, trick-or-treaters will be roaming neighborhood streets looking for candy and a good Halloween scare. Between now and then, there are plenty of haunted houses and attractions to scare anyone into the Halloween mood.

The "House of Pain" located in the old Eastman Dental Dispensary could have a special attraction; back in July, workers fixing up the thought this building could be haunted.

The owners brought in local paranormal investigation team Mystic Encounters that includes a psychic.

SaraJane Schwier of the House of Pain said, "The psychic was scared out of her mind and some places she wouldn't even go into. She felt children pulling on her fingers, a doctor kept pushing her out of a couple of the rooms."

Whether some real ghosts show up or not, the dispensary will certainly feel haunted thanks to Hollywood makeup artists, actors from the School of the Arts, and plenty of special effects.

Schwier said, "It is geared to young adults, late teens. It also is haunted as well which is kind of cool."

But the Eastman Dental Dispensary isn't the only live action horror palace in Rochester.

"Fear at Southtown” Plaza opens this year in addition to the ever-popular "Fear at Frontier" Field.

Between the two locations, some 80 gory ghouls and actors will be hiding in dark corners for unsuspecting visitors.

Mike Garbato of "Fear at Southtown" and "Fear at Frontier" said, "I remember people taking walls down, running, I've seen people fall to the floor and practically have a heart attack."

All three haunted houses open their doors to the public on Thursday night and will be open throughout October.

Tickets are between $13 and $15 and each devotes some proceeds of each ticket to local charities.
