Haunted Asylums, Fire Spinners Come To Naper Settlement

NAPERVILLE, IL — The historic buildings at Naper Settlement will be occupied by ghosts, witches, and other terrifying creatures during the two-day All Hallow's Eve event on Oct. 19 and 20. The fear-inducing festivities include an illusionist, fire spinning, and a dark art gallery.

Throughout the 13 acres of Naper Settlement, buildings will be transformed into scary landmarks. Visitors can step into the Murder Castle of H.H. Holmes, brave a Victorian-era mental asylum, and tiptoe through a torture dungeon.

Live entertainment will be provided by an illusionist and fire spinners. A professional face painter will also be on hand to help transform kids into zombies, cats, and characters.

Food will be available for purchase from Paisan's Pizza, Olde Tyme Kettle Corn, and Dinky Delights.

Tickets to Naper Settlement's All Hallow's Eve are $20. Members and children under four years old get in for free. According to the event page, the activities may be too scary for younger children.
