A gruesome zombie outbreak has hit Rochester and the only safe zone is inside the Main Street Armory. The CDC has set up a clear area where patrons will be screened, tested for the infection, and administered a shot to prevent further infection. But now you're stuck in the Armory, a building notorious for its hauntings and horrors.

The Castle of Horrors returns this year on Thursday, October 1, for another season of ghouls, ghosts, and gore. About 50,000 square feet of the Armory (900 East Main Street) is transformed into themed rooms and corridors for a heart-stopping haunted house. The Castle of Horrors is open 7 p.m. to 11 p.m. on Thursdays and Sundays, and 7 p.m. to midnight on Fridays and Saturdays. Open through Friday, October 30. $20. castleofhorrors.com.
