Santa's Village Goes Ghostly with October's Nightmare from North Street

As fall creeps in, Santa’s Village Azoosment Park is going to the ghouls and the goblins. This is not your typical Santa’s Village Azoosment Park experience...This is Nightmare from North Street! From Oct. 4 to Oct. 26, Santa’s Village Azoosment Park will be open Friday and Saturday nights in October featuring rides, games, eats, treats and outdoor beer garden, all with a fall flair.

Prepare yourself for terrifying thrills and bone-chilling scares as you visit the park and step foot in The Haunted Barn Experience. Hidden on the hillside in the back of the property, urban legend has it that the barn was constructed on sacred land, disturbing the spirits that had rested there peacefully for centuries. Now it is said that they haunt the structure, waiting to seek vengeance on anyone who dares to disturb it. Enter at your own risk because the experience is sure to be YOUR WORST NIGHTMARE. The barn opens at 7 p.m. with last ticket sales at 10:30 p.m. Make sure you get in line for the scare of a lifetime. Nightmare from North Street Haunted Barn Experience is best suited for those ages 12 and up.

Also, don’t forget to visit the park on Saturday Oct. 19 from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. for your chance to meet Chicago’s legendary horror show icon—SVENGOOLIE!
