Did you visit a Haunted House in Chicago?

OMG!!!!



If you still don't visited this House, you shouldn't miss it!


The interior is very winding, trying to get as much scare space as possible out of a relatively small area. It worked! By the time I reached the end I was justting the sweet spot of ready to go- not so freaked out that I couldn't enjoy and not so desensitized that I stop suspending disbelief.

Some of the cool features inside without giving away to many spoilers: very awesome animatronic beasts that get very close to you, innovative uses of compressed air guns for audible and tactile scares, and some truly disorienting rooms where either pure darkness or fog and restrained use of strobes conspire to fully blind you. If you're afraid of the dark (like me) this will certainly give you a good scare.

I screamed more than all my life!! I can't believe how you feel in a real movie! In each corner you can find a someone different waiting you for give you the most fright! Hahahaha!! The actors are really characterized and the scenes are terrifying. I went with my cousin ,I didn't let go of her hand all the way.

I Just can say, gooo..!!!!


Zombi Army Productions is thrilled to announce that the award-winning Fear Haunted House is in Navy Pier ! This October will feature both an aggressive adult-themed haunted house at night and a low scare, lights on attraction during the day.

5 pumpkin-carving tips from Chicago master carver Robert Childers

Halloween is coming!!



Today we are going to see 5 tips for pumpkin-carving, there we go..!!!

 Choose the right pumpkin. Shape, size and weight are all important when it comes to choosing the perfect pumpkin, and it all depends on what you want to do with it. Heavier pumpkins will likely have thicker walls, necessary for intricate carvings.

 Choose your style. Childers and other maser pumpkin carvers tend to carve shapes and faces into the pumpkins rather than cutting them out.

Pick your design. Once you chose what kind of pumpkin you want to carve, knowing the design you want is key. You may not be able to carve crazy faces into pumpkins just yet, ME NO! WHO ELSE? :-) but Childers recommends starting with something simple and practicing. It’s also important to trace your design on the pumpkin before you dig in.

Get the right tools. The pumpkin carving kits sold in stores this time of year are not ideal; Childers suggests you go to an art store to get your necessary tools. Loop tools, X-acto knives and scouring pads are the best options you can have.

 Use shadows to your advantage. Using a light right above your pumpkin will show you where the shadows will happen. Shadows have the ability to make pumpkins look extra creepy, so seeing where they’ll fall and playing into the shadows while carving is key.

After this tips I gotta go to carve my pumpkin, Have fun!

Wicker Park art has graffiti roots

In Wicker Park, the space between the Blue Line tracks and Milwaukee Avenue is a hop, skip, and a jump. But for graffiti artist Tyrue ‘Slang’ Jones, the distance spans nearly 30 years.

From Division to Logan, guys would hit the rooftops. The rooftops were the most visual. If West Town residents didn’t know Jones ( author these graffities) work before this summer, it’s likely they know it now. He was commissioned to produce two high-profile murals on Milwaukee Avenue: a wall-length piece inside the video arcade Emporium, followed by an outdoor piece on Evergreen Avenue along the side of the Hollywood Cleaners.

Emporium came first. After opening in March, the owners decided they wanted a mural with a “classic Chicago graffiti style” to mix with their arcades. They called Jones.

Taggers write on the side of tunnels because it’s a high-visibility area for commuters. Today, instead of using trains, Slang’s exposure comes from public, contracted works like the two on Milwaukee. The Emporium mural in particular was a full-circle moment.

“It’s a different thing from being chased away by a business owner.” He said.
