Public invited to tour haunted Coast Guard station

October 13, 2016
Station Marblehead, Ohio, personnel host Coast Guard Zombies, a haunted house style morale and community event, on the station's property, Oct. 25, 2013. Active duty Coast Guard personnel, their families, and two local Coast Guard Auxiliary flotillas supported by artists from Ghoul FX of Sandusky, Ohio, volunteered their time and skills to turn the station into a zombie infected wasteland for the evening, which accomplished their goal of collecting nonperishable food items for a local food bank.
