Tonight's the big night, and we are hoping for huge crowds tonight, from 5PM - 11PM! Many things to keep in mind.

1. We will be blocking off Buchanan from 9th Street to the alley north of 10th Street. This will be done somewhere between 5 - 6. The main reason for this is safety, but also we will have Butch’s BBQ Shack providing food. While you can park on either side of the barricade, it's usually easier parking between 8th - 9th as well as on 9th. The women's health clinic at 8th & Buchanan will let us use their parking lot for parking as well.

2. As for the tickets. First off, we are still a FREE event. The purpose of the tickets is for crowd control, as we will send in one group at a time. Crowd control has not been easy for us since we get large numbers, so please bear with us. The other reason for tickets is if you are hungry while you wait, you can step out and grab a bite from the food truck and with your ticket, you won't lose your place in line. We also have some haybales if you want to sit down while eating. We will be calling out numbers in order so people will know when to go in. Hopefully this will work, as it's something new we are trying. One ticket is for your whole group, and will need it to get in.

3. And of course, if you do not want to go with your group, we have chairs on the porch where you can wait. So please use them!

4. Also, as It has been said many times, do not touch any of our actors and they will not touch you. We tend to have a great group of people helping us every year, and they are very respectful at what they do. Be mindful of that.

5. Do not tear through any of the plastic or damage any props. We worked very hard to put our event together, so please be respectful when going through.

I think that might cover everything. So please get the word out and come join the fun, tonight from 5PM - 11PM!!

Get ready! Tomorrow night is Halloween and our final night. And hopefully the weather will cooperate for a change lol. Get the word out, we will have Butch’s BBQ Shack with food! And of course, we will give out candy! The fun starts at 5PM!!

10/26/2025

We want to thank all those who have came out so far, even in the rain lol. Just a reminder, we will not be open until Halloween night, so we can rest, recover and repair! And hopefully it won't rain for Halloween!

10/25/2025

We are open so come check us out. Until 11PM!

If you want to help out with scares and barricades, we really need that, so come join the fun!

Butch’s BBQ Shack was so delicious last night!

So were all the lost souls we devoured.

If you can brave the rain, come enjoy more tonight.

Their BBQ brisket sandwich was to die for!
