The Timbers of Shorewood is Going to Get Pretty Scary
The Timbers ouble dog dares you to get through their "spook house" without screaming.
The community's children are invited to come in costume to The Timbers of Shorewood's fifth annual Halloween Spook House.
The Halloween Spook House runs from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Oct. 21 and 22. It will be located in the lower level of the 1100 N. River Road retirement community.
With the assistance of the Kiwanis Club of Shorewood, the staff at The Timbers will transform its ballroom into a spooky maze filled with ghastly creatures, including skeletons, mummies, bleeding zombies and reapers.

A less scary alternative will be on the first floor Elms Community Room. The room will be converted to a Halloween game room for children 10 years and younger. Games, crafts and fun will take place, and refreshments will be served. The game room hours are 5 p.m. to 8 p.m.
“Our spook house is so much fun, and each year it gets more creepy and spine-chilling — on purpose, of course,” said Shelly Goggins, the activities director of The Timbers.
