Supernatural Chicago

Supernatural Chicago is a unique entertainment experience that blends history, ghost stories, and live performance at the Castle Nightclub, a historic venue on North Dearborn Street. The show takes audiences on a journey through Chicago's darker past, from the Great Chicago Fire to the exploits of serial killer H.H. Holmes. Using multimedia effects, actors, and audience interaction, it creates an immersive atmosphere that is both educational and spooky. The venue itself, a former castle-like mansion, adds to the eerie ambiance. What makes Supernatural Chicago distinctive is its focus on true crime and paranormal lore specific to the city, presented in a theatrical format rather than a traditional walking tour. It's a popular choice for those seeking after-dark entertainment with a historical twist.

A bit of history

The Castle Nightclub building dates to the late 19th century and was originally a private residence. It has housed various businesses and is rumored to be haunted.
