"Navigating the hordes of tourists at Navy Pier already feels like a scene from The Walking Dead, so a trip here during the Halloween season already makes sense. Plus, on October 26th, they’ll host Slightly Spooky Saturday. The pier will be ready for trick-or-treating throughout, and there will be festive activities like axe-throwing and live performances. Be sure to check their website for updates." - john ringor, nick allen
