Official schedule ↗

Selected from our 50-mile research area. Sources: the 2026 Chicago Haunt Builders map and linked operator websites, researched October 9, 2026. Independent attractions; no affiliation with Hills of Unrest. Spirits on Sproat’s directions link follows the map on its official website.

Leave time for the shadows.

Choose two or three stops instead of trying to see every yard in one evening. Compare schedules first, save your directions, and keep one stop optional. Our Halloween night planning guide helps you put the evening together.

A yard display and a walk-through can feel very different. Let your group choose the kind of scare before you choose the route.

These streets are home.

Keep driveways clear, follow the posted viewing arrangements, and give other visitors room. Enjoy the props from the designated areas and leave the scenery as you found it.

Make Hills of Unrest your first stop: October 2–31, dusk–10 p.m. Admission is free and donations are accepted. The Oak Lawn guide has more ideas for exploring locally.
