Face your fears at Disturbia: Screams in the Park

Imagine: You are walking down a long, dank hallway, towards a clown. He waits for you behind bars. If you're brave enough, you keep eye contact with the clown as you walk closer and closer to the door. You must push open his jail cell door - there is no other way. The clown towers over you, his height intimidating. Either you stay and join him in his cell, or you push past him, walking very, very quickly. If you stay longer, who knows what he’ll do.

Disturbia: Screams in the Park returns to Rosemont to once again test the bravery of the souls who dare to visit this October. This thrilling haunted trail was ranked third in top Chicago-area haunted houses by the Chicago Tribune and Haunted Illinois. I beg to differ. The creators, Joseph and Mike Pantano, the characters and designers deserve first place. The amazingly horrifying costumes, decorations, make-up, settings, and interactive nature make this haunted house stand out from the rest. This haunt has 35 bone-chilling rooms full of terror, such as, an insane asylum managed by murderous psychopaths who are killing for laughs and a maze of underworld passages. For a couple of the rooms, you are unable to rely on your sense of sight to help you escape the monsters following you.
