Kids of all ages and costumes made their way to Neighborhood House’s annual Haunted Halls event held at 2819 W. Richardson Place. Teens at Neighborhood House, a community center with a 70-year legacy, designed and created the two-day event of spooky activities to benefit their teen program.
For only $3, attendees were able to participate in activities such as face painting, crafts, word scrambles, scary snacks and various games. There was also a small haunted house in the basement where older attendees were able to test their bravery in the darkness.
