Are you ready for a good, spooky time?<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve been holding back on writing this, but after spotting the beginnings of a Halloween display at United Market Street, I figured: Why shouldn\u2019t Lubbock\u2019s<\/a> Halloween headquarters start joining in on the fun?<\/p>\n

Nightmare on 19th Street is celebrating its 20th season. Wow\u2014what a whirlwind!<\/p>\n

We started in front of the Lone Star Amphitheater, with most of the attraction inside the Pavilion. We moved to the back for our third year, and we\u2019ve been building, expanding and going crazy back there ever since.<\/p>\n

\"Nessmania\"NessmaniaNessmaniaWelcome to the Year of the Creeps<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s theme is the \u201cYear of the Creeps,\u201d and we\u2019re introducing a couple of soon-to-be-iconic characters\u2014and one big, ugly spider.<\/p>\n

Guests will be greeted by Betty, a giant, animatronic, 10-foot spider. I should probably mention that she\u2019s hungry, too!<\/p>\n

Inside Blood Moon Manor, things have shifted around a bit. A secret medical room will debut featuring Dr. Mortis, and let\u2019s hope he doesn\u2019t get any stray body fluids on you.<\/p>\n

Mr. Skinner also has his tailor shop open, featuring the finest in human-skin activewear. Farther down the line, you\u2019ll spot some new ghosts haunting the New Orleans Cemetery.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve also made updates throughout KarnEvil, Castle Dominus and Roger Ratty\u2019s Pizza Playhouse 3D.<\/p>\n

This is one of those years when we\u2019ve worked hard to make the attractions more \u201cdense.\u201d That means more characters, more details, and more creepy things packed into every corner.<\/p>\n

The best part is that while you\u2019re distracted by all the cool new stuff, we get even more chances to sneak up on you.<\/p>\n

We are working very hard to Keep Lubbock Spooky, and we hope you\u2019ll come out and enjoy the park this year.<\/p>\n

We also know things are tough out there, so we\u2019re holding our prices firm. Thursdays and Sundays are still the same $20 they\u2019ve always been, while prices on Fridays and most Saturdays have remained unchanged for at least 10 years.<\/p>\n

\"R.R. FloresR. FloresEnter the First Blood Giveaway<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s get this party started with our \u201cFirst Blood Giveaway.\u201d<\/p>\n

The winner will receive four VIP tickets to Nightmare on 19th Street and the option to be the very first group to enter the haunt on opening night, Saturday, September 26.<\/p>\n

That means you and three friends could be the first fresh victims of our 20th season\u2014and the first people to face Dr. Mortis, Mr. Skinner, our new cemetery ghosts and one very hungry 10-foot spider.<\/p>\n

Nightmare on 19th Street is ready to celebrate 20 years of fear.<\/p>\n
