FAQ:
- Q: Will there be increased traffic on parade day?
- A: Yes! Neighbourhood traffic is notoriously heavy on Halloween! We suggest you take CTA trains to Belmont to avoid the roads. If you're driving allow extra time and be prepared to walk as far as a mile to meet us. Do not underestimate this traffic!

- Q: I'm coming from work and will arrive close to 6:30 pm
- A: Great, meet us there, at 6:30 pm we'll move as a group from the Green Room at Annoyance to our Parade Line-up location: the CTA bus turnaround behind Drew's on Halsted (3201 N Halsted St, Chicago, IL)

- Q: I can only come to the green room for a few minutes!
- A: That's ok! Please arrive fully costumed with your make-up done. (You can get black and white halloween makeup from Amazon or Walgreens, make-up guide is attached)

- Q: What time do we enter the parade?
- A: ~7:15 pm, but this can change! Parade officials will be adjusting the entrance order of groups right up until start time.

- Q: What do I do with my stuff while we're performing?
- A: We will store our personal belongings at Annoyance Theatre in Studio A. All belongings must be collected by 9:00 pm.

- Q: I have friends and family coming to watch us! Where is the parade?
- A: The parade route is along Halsted Street, starting at Belmont and Halsted and ending at Brompton and Halsted.

- Q: What if it rains or snows?
- A: The parade is still on! We perform rain or shine
(it's witches that melt in the rain not zombies).

- Q: What is the Haunted Halsted Parade?
- A: Parade and costume contest in the Boystown neighbourhood in Chicago featuring performances by Chicago Thriller, Full Moon Fire Jam, Lakeside Pride Marching Band and others! https://northalsted.com/main-events/haunted-halsted-halloween-parade/
