Today's haunted attractions have gone high-tech, with Hollywood-style special effects, set designers and some truly terrifying performances by actors portraying ghouls and madmen.

You can search for a haunted attraction near you on the Web site for the International Association of Haunted Attractions — http://hauntedhouseassociation.org/.

The organization has also put together a list of eight of the spookiest haunted houses around the country.

They are the Netherworld Haunted House, Atlanta; Darkness Haunted House, St. Louis; Erebus Haunted Attraction, Detroit; Headless Horseman Hayrides, Kingston, N.Y.; Bates Motel and Hayride, Philadelphia; Eastern State Penitentiary's Terror Behind the Walls, Philadelphia; the Haunted Castle, Fort Wayne, Ind., and Niles Haunted House and Screampark, in Niles, Mich., where the association is based.
