| Location: 4001 North Clark Street location / map / directions |
| What to expect: Not too far behind the entrance of Chicago's historical and picturesque cemetery resides Eternal Silence – also known as The Statue of Death. Designed by sculptor Lorado Taft in 1909, the statue stands at the gravesite of Dexter Graves (Ha! Graves), who in 1831 led a group of settlers from Ohio to the land that two years later would become Chicago. Rumor has it that the statue is haunted...obviously. |

| HORROR & MONSTER STORE / ART / GIFTS / HOME DECOR |
| |
| Location: 228 West Main Street location / map / directions |
| Telephone: 630-441-2920 |
| What to expect: "We moved from Southern CA in 2015, where we now realize there was clearly an over abundancy of cool retail horror stores. When we were done unpacking, we ventured out to explore the giant metropolis that is Chicago, and we were amazed that there weren’t any horror stores here... like at all. So, on a long trip to a horror con in St. Louis in 2016, we batted around the notion of opening our own store, more as a way to pass the time on the road. We effortlessly filled a spiral notebook with ideas for layout, décor, merchandise, party themes, unique events. From that point on, we talked about it in the theoretical sense "if we did the store, we would definitely have to have this or that". That went on for months and months. The store had become this creatively quirky inspiration that we somehow were always talking and texting about. On the next road trip to the same horror con the following year, we marveled at the notion that we had somehow signed a lease and that were taking a break from hammering away on building out the interior. After over a solid year of building out the store, we were on the road to that horror con again, this time as retail buyers intent on finding things to carry in the store. We opened a few weeks later, much to the delight of all the fellow monster/horror creepies that had been less and less patiently believing the sign in the window that promised “coming soon”. On June 29, 2018 we had our official grand opening ribbon ceremony... dressed as zombies so we could gnaw the ribbon apart of course. Ghoulish Mortals is here Chicago! Come check us out…because we built it for you, and uh, er... us." |
