- About:
- “It takes a certain kind of genius or insanity to create a haunted graveyard like the one that Lake Compounce just acquired. Perhaps the most unnerving (and therefore most successful) aspect of the attraction is trying to figure out which phantom is alive and which is simply there for ambience while you stumble around in the dark. After a few thought-to-be-inanimate objects jump out from dark corners, the thought of what might be around the next turn can be terrifying.”

- History:
- The Haunted Graveyard got its start in 1991, when Ernie and Carol Romegialli’s daughter, Johanna, was diagnosed with Juvenile Diabetes. According to Ernie, “We started decorating our yard in Middletown, Connecticut for Halloween, thinking it would keep Johanna’s mind off candy. Every year, the displays of decoration just kept getting bigger and bigger. It outgrew our yard and has since evolved into Southern NewEngland’s largest Halloween attraction. Today, Johanna, at age 19, is an active member of the Graveyard team.” To date, The Haunted Graveyard has raised more than $250,000 for Juvenile Diabetes Research.
Helping Johanna and the thousands of young people like her is vital to Ernie’s commitment to find a cure for Juvenile Diabetes. Great strides are being made each year, but that is not enough. For Ernie, Carol, and Johanna, a cure must be found. That is their mission.
