SALT LAKE CITY — You may have heard people say they are "scared to death" to get married. But a Halloween wedding in a haunted house Monday afternoon brought a whole new meaning to how frightening nuptials can be.
Instead of glamour and elegance, Max Coffman and Sheri Whitt exchanged vows in the presence of ghouls and vampires at the Nightmare on 13th in Salt Lake City.

"We met on Halloween, and so I thought what a perfect place to be married: inside a haunted house," Cheri said.
When it was time to exchange rings, they were brought out in a tiny coffin.
"I love it. I don't think it's creepy," Cheri said. "I love the idea of Halloween, and it's my favorite time of year. And for us, if people think it's creepy, well, it's what we want to do."
The grim reaper officiated at Max and Cheri's Halloween ceremony. No word yet on where they plan to spend their honeymoon.
