Rock Island, IL, September 24, 2018– Terror At Skellington Manor will begin their 25th year of terrorizing the Quad Cities on Friday, September 28 at 7:00pm. What began as Terror in the Woods in 1993 outside Donahue, IA moved to Rock Island in 2009 and began haunting as Terror At Skellington Manor. Their current theme Theatre Of the Macabre focuses on a fascination with all things odd or unusual, grotesque, or otherwise terrifyingly unpleasant. The updates include a take on the tale of “Sweeney Todd”, attempts to reanimate the deceased, a museum of the bizarre, and creepy cast of new characters.
