This year's event was another horrific success. The best costume prize was a hit, many excellent costumes were displayed, and the party lasted till 3 am. What more can you ask? ...more in 2010?

Who, who, who...

Many years ago in the basement of a Chicago Brownstone apartment the stage was set for what would become our annual event. Each year as autumn gripped the city, this basement was transformed into a subterranean tomb, complete with scenes of horror soaked in the blood of the innocent. Horrific creatures lurked in the shadows waiting hungerly for the unwitting passerby. As hordes of guests were lead in, they were filled with dread as they looked out over an interior graveyard rising out of the dirt floor where once sat long ago piles of coal used to fire an abandoned boiler. This was the place for all souls, dead or alive, to gather in celebration of everything haunted. This was the beginnings of Horroween. Today the location has changed, but not the reasons...not the body count.
