Great Wolf Lodge family massacre blew up during uncommon three-week stay at pricey resort, officials say

Disturbing details paint a graphic picture of how a loving father and his 3-year-old son were stabbed to death inside a popular family resort during the family's multi-week extended stay.

Investigators say Metallica Rose Harrison, 27, used "butcher knives" when she allegedly stabbed her husband, Charles "Chaz" Harrison, 36, and the couple's 3-year-old son.

It happened at the Great Wolf Lodge in Pennsylvania's Pocono region on Monday. The family is from the small rural town of Towanda, Pennsylvania.

The criminal complaint says officers responded to a 911 call about a "suicidal woman" who "needed help dying."

Officers discovered the two victims with stab wounds inside their hotel room and found knives, blood, and various medications, the documents say.

The couple was on an extended, three-week stay at the resort — which can cost more than $600 a night.

In a statement sent to Fox News Digital, a spokesperson for Great Wolf Lodge provided brief details about the lengthy stay.

"Weve had families in the past stay at our resorts for extended periods of time while completing home renovations or repairs because our rooms are larger and theres a lot of entertainment offerings, so a multi-week stay is uncommon, but not completely unusual," the statement said.

The spokesperson did not provide details about how the family was paying for the stay and instead referred Fox News Digital to law enforcement for "specifics on this case."

According to the couple's social media accounts, it appears the couple was married for three years before the tragedy.
