MALES and FEMALES - 18 and older as monsters, zombies, vampires, warewolves, ghosts and other creepy things, plus more crew and staff positions available.

EVENT DATES: OCTOBER 2 - NOVEMBER 1, 2015 from 7:00 PM to 12-Midnight 

ATTRACTIONS INCLUDE... 

Twisted Tree Mortuary 
Plunge into your deepest nightmares while wandering the catacombs and tombs of the Twisted Tree Mortuary. This outdoor experience will have your skin crawling, with both mind boggling fear as well as maybe some insects. Ghouls and creatures of the night lurk in the shadows waiting for their next victim to torment and haunt. 


Carnevil 
Step right up to the most deranged carnival imaginable! Our freaks and clowns are inside waiting to make you scream! Once equipped with your 3D spectacles, we will set you loose into the madness. Make sure to watch out for Bubbles, we told him not to use the chainsaw anymore but these clowns just don’t listen. 


The Boiler Room 
Do you dare enter the zombie infested boiler room? There are zombies lurking around every corner, thirsting for the taste of your warm flesh and blood. The infection is spreading quickly and the horde is looking for its newest member….might that be you? We heard that the resident ghost, Dougie, has been waiting in the boilers for his next hauntee. 


City Meats 
Being the most extreme haunt that 
Tucson has ever experienced, City Meats is not for the faint of heart. Our butchers are looking for some fresh meat and that means that you could be the next course. Once you enter the City Meats doors, there is NO going back. They can grab you, smell you, and chase you as they wish- inside of City Meats no one is safe. 


Apocalypse 
The Apocalypse is the Slaughterhouse’s NEWEST INTERACTIVE haunt! We can guarantee you have not experienced anything like what this attraction has to offer. The zombies are awaiting you upstairs, but now they are coming with full force because you will be ARMED and able to fight back. Do you dare face the Apocalypse?

Poetry Returns to the Ave | City Week | Tucson Weekly

Words on the Avenue returns for a new season of poetry on Sunday, Aug. 30 at Café Passe, 415 N. 4th Ave., 6:30 p.m. The open mic is open to all community writes to share just about everything they've put in their heads or on a piece of paper. Tucson Youth Poetry Slam's Jose Martinez is the featured poet for the evening. His poem "The Ten Commandments of Being Mexican" has become well known in the community and is a great example of using poetry as a primary weapon to battle injustices such as being stereotyped by the way he looks/thinks/feels. Roch Mirabeau will be there on the ones and twos, and Teré Fowler-Chapman will host. Suggested donation is $5. Open to everyone. The event's Facebook has more information.
