A Halloween attraction in Honolulu is back with a new theme, and part of what it earns will go toward funding local women-owned businesses.

• Trial of Fears has reopened at Queen Street in the Ward area, across from Whole Foods.
• This year's theme is a quarantine lab where visitors have to stop a parasite outbreak from reaching Oahu.
• It mixes scares with puzzles that guests must solve to move from room to room, unlike a standard haunted house.
• A share of ticket sales will go to local women entrepreneurs, who can pitch for funding directly.
• It runs weekends through November 1, plus select Thursdays and Sundays.

Outlook: A family-friendly follow-up event called The Night Between is planned for November with a holiday theme.
