Climate change, pollution and animal rights were the focus of Fright for Future, a haunted maze intended to educate and offer a different kind of fear on Oct. 13 and 14. The Centro Cultural de La Raza hosted this attraction, which took visitors through 15 different activations, ranging from biohazards and a rainforest massacre to circus animal abuse and the meat production industry. Each activation was decorated with gory and frightening images and sounds, like a butcher shop section that showed animals being slaughtered and mutilated for human consumption, and a witch stirring her cauldron to make certain cosmetic products that contain whale vomit and snail slime. There was also a QR code at each activation to find out how humans can help protect the environment and animals.
