Only haunted house on Saginaw’s East Side opening for Friday the 13th in May
Hold for Cole’s Go-Pro videoSAGINAW, MI — Factory of the Dead, the only haunted house on Saginaw’s East Side, is opening for a special Friday the 13th event this month. Factory of the Dead, located at 906 Lapeer Ave., started as a seasonal haunted house and grew into an entertainment venue that also offers GellyBall and escape rooms year-round all under the 906 Lapeer umbrella. “Whenever there’s a Friday the 13th in the year, we always open and we do a special scaring,” Hartley said. Horror fans will wander through the haunted house in near total darkness. “We’re going to shut off all the lights, and we’re going to give each group a glowstick, just one of them, and they have to navigate through the haunted house,” Hartley said.

Bodies of invasive spotted lanternfly found in Michigan
LANSING, Mich. – Dead spotted lanternfly insects were found in Michigan in recent weeks, according to The Michigan Department of Agriculture and Rural Development (MDARD). MDARD is asking freight carriers, warehouse workers and delivery drivers to be on the lookout for the spotted lanternfly. Officials said there is no evidence of an established population of the spotted lanternfly in Michigan. The spotted lanternfly sucks sap from host plants and secrets large amounts of a sugar-rich, sticky liquid called honeydew. People involved in transporting and handling goods or freight should become familiar with identifying spotted lanternfly adults and egg masses.
State: Southfield paramedic misled doc about ‘dead’ woman
SOUTHFIELD, Mich. – A suburban Detroit paramedic repeatedly failed to recognize that a young woman declared dead was alive and misled a doctor by phone about her condition, according to state authorities who offered more details about the strange case. The incident was bizarre because a funeral home discovered Timesha Beauchamp was alive when she gasped while her body was being prepared on Aug. 23. The latest details are in a state license suspension filed last week against Michael Storms, a Southfield firefighter and paramedic, who was part of a four-member team responding to the home of the 20-year-old woman. The Southfield fire chief said the incident still remains under investigation by the city. The state said Storms changed his report when it was uploaded a second time to an incident database the next day.
