In addition to these performances, the event will offer a variety of FREE activities including a Story-Walk Scavenger Hunt, Carnival Games, a Bounce House, Mini Golf, and a scenic Hayride.

Monetary donations are also welcome.
“We are excited to welcome families to our annual Haunted Hoffman Family Fest, a cherished tradition here at HEParks,” said Jodi Schultz, Special Events Program Manager at HEParks. “This event is a wonderful way for the community to come together, enjoy some Halloween fun and celebrate the season.”
As always, Haunted Hoffman will also offer the opportunity to meet local heroes, with members of the Hoffman Estates Fire and Police Departments joining in the festivities. Children and families can interact with these local first responders, making the event a great way to build connections and learn about their essential roles in the community.
For those seeking even more Halloween fun, the Trick or Treat Path will offer an extra special experience.
