The haunted hall was shut down for a fire code violation, according to Gerald Tatum. a Richmond Fire Department training officer who was present when the hall was shut down. The violation was in regards to plastic bags covering sprinkler heads. Tatum said. Andy Beck. Sullivan Hall Council president, was disappointed the hall was shut down but was not surprised, he said. "I had a feeling if the fire alarms went off. there would be severe pun- ishments," Beck said.
