Thanks to all who ventured out. But wow, weirdest year ever. Had a few bumps throughout the nite, temp was bitter cold inside and out, supplied way more spirits than needed, ended with a mysterious 6 am fire in the crypt tent melting tables and incinerating our canopy. What a nite!

Who, who, who...
Many years ago in the basement of a Chicago brownstone apartment the stage was set for what would become an annual event. Each October as Autumn fell upon the city, the depths of the brownstone was transformed into a subterranean tomb, complete with scenes of horror soaked in the blood of the innocent. Darkened creatures lurked in the shadows waiting hungrily to dine on the souls of the unwitting passerby. Hordes of guests were lead in to be filled with dread as they peered out over an interior graveyard rising out of the dirt floor where once long ago sat piles of coal used to fire the abandoned boiler. This was the place for all souls, dead or alive, to gather in celebration of everything haunted. This was the beginnings of Horrorween.
Today Horroween lives on every October at our home several miles west of the city. We hope to see your there.
