The Best Holloween Haunted Houses to Go to in Illinois

Here are the top 5 haunted houses to go to and get really scared. I must remind all people if you have a heart condition this is not recommended to go to.

1. Stateville Haunted Jail.
This is by far the best place for people to go to, I have been to this place in the last 6 years and my kids will not go. I took my aunt with me and we had rush her to the Emergency Room because she could not breathe. And we were only half way through it. it seems that it does get better and better every year. This location is at 17250 S. Weber Road Crest Hill, Illinois 60441 The prices are steep but well worth it. Here is the pricing for this location.
Admission: Statesville Haunted Prison & City of the Dead $30.00. Group Tickets are $25.00. it will take you about 40 minutes to go through it all. and it is allot of fun specially for people who never went there. You ill get spooked but hey it is Halloween right? I recommend this place to be the top of the list. Although this place is for everyone but i would look into it for kids under 8 years old. it will scare them. Again with older people who suffer from heart conditions to stay away.

2.Dream Reapers Haunted house and Nightmares Inc.
This is a really cool place to go, I visited this place last year for the first time and my kids will not go back, they said it was too much for them. yes it is very scary and not for the kids under 8 to go, they will have nightmares for
weeks after going here they are located at 1945 Cornell, Melrose Park, IL 60160. pricing changes so best to call ahead or go there . This is a place that takes about 25 minutes to get through, If you really want to spook your kids, I suggest you go here as well.

3.Homewood Haunts Cemetery
Moline, Illinois
Location: 3420-52 Street
Contact Phone: 309-762-6620
Website: www.geocities.com/billthered2000/homewood_haunts.html
A creepy cemetery bound in fog, with ghosts drifting aimlessly among the headstones. Homewood Haunts aims at a creepy experience, no chainsaw maniacs, no Freddy Kruger's. Homewood Haunts is inspired by the more classical traditions of Edgar Alan Poe and Boris Karloff. This is a kinder type of house that people who don't want to get to scared but it is still fun.

4.Frightmare Haunted House at Haunted Trails Amusement Park

5.Eleventh Hour
ElK Grove Village, Illinois
Location: 434 East Devon Avenue
Website: www.eleventhhour.info
Four haunted houses crammed into one. Almost 17,000 sq feet of haunts! An all new Eleventh Hour. A new format, new scares, new look with a new twist on some of your favorite rooms from "The Asylum"! Darkest Hour, a pitch black maze, Third Dementia, don a pair of 3d glasses to venture through this gallery and finally Chain Reaction, it looks easy but can you really find your way out? This is not for the kind at heart, this place you must find your way out and there is no exit signs to follow, in case of am emergency they turn the lights on then you see the signs. But not recommended to the weak at heart.

6.Nightmare on Fairgrounds Road
Princeton, Illinois
Location: Bureau County Fairgrounds
Website: www.nightmareonfairgroundsroad.com
Two dedicated buildings of terror and innovation. Torture at Clark Castle, Dare to enter the house of the possessed. Walk Through the twin Vortex if you can, survive the "crusher" or not. Free hayrack ride plus a land for the smallest ghouls to explore. Walk the land of the doomed. Northern Illinois best haunt! This again is very scary and was voted top of the charts for two years, This is not for the weak at heart and should take in consideration for people with epilepsy or heart conditions. Best thing t do is to ask the people there,they always give you straight answers.

As I have been saying through out this article,people who suffer from heart conditions,epilepsy and other known causes should take in consideration for go into a Haunted House. This is the time of year that people suffer heart attacks and can die from it. Please be careful of all surroundings, there are people out there not for the fun but can stalk your Children as well and please by all means know and teach your children to be alert at all cost's.

Last year alone in Illinois over 250 children were abducted by people and still missing today. the best thing to do is go the the web sites listed and check for yourself, and keep yourself educated on the area's. yes even though you want to have a good time ,there is always creeps out there who want to ruin it, And going to these places and you feel you were violated file a complaint with the Illinois State Attorneys office, they take this very serious.
