Haunted House At Timbers Raises Money For Alzheimer’s Association

​Kids and adults are invited to The Timbers of Shorewood's 11th annual Halloween Spook House.

Kids are invited to wear costumes to The Timbers of Shorewood’s 11th annual Halloween Spook House from 5 – 10 p.m. Friday, October 20, and 5 – 10 p.m. Saturday, October 21. Adults are invited to the lower level for the Spook House at The Timbers of Shorewood, 1100 N. River Road, Shorewood.

The staff at The Timbers transforms its ballroom into a frightening maze filled with ghastly creatures including skeletons, ghosts, witches, mummies, zombies and reapers.

“This is the 11th anniversary of our Spook House,” said Faith Varga, executive director of The Timbers. “We are pulling out all the stops so that ghouls and goblins will tremble. We are bringing even scarier monsters and creatures into the maze. We hope everyone will have a great time. I know we do!”
