A local Halloween attraction is helping raise money for kids in need.
The Nightmare on Second Street in Welland is back for another year starting Thursday, bringing a haunted maze that attracts hundreds.
The maze is by donation, with all money going towards McMaster Children's Hospital. Amber Dery, who sets the maze up with her family, says there's a lot of work that goes into it.

Amber's son, Carter, has been going to McMaster Children's Hospital his entire life, and decided six years ago he wanted to bring his Halloween candy to kids staying there.
Amber says he's perservered through a lot in his life.
