Haunted Sanitarium at Theatre On the Lake (Fullerton & Lake Shore) - kind of your standard haunted house with a strobe light room, haunted graveyard, and mangled monsters carrying chainsaws that try to freak you out while you wait in line; not horribly scary but still frightening enough to be entertaining and definitely a good length. Guys - great for a date!
Disturbed at the Oracle Theatre (Broadway & Grace) - Let's just say the name is an understatement. Each year's show is a different short "interactive play" where the audience stands in the middle of the scene and the show is enacted around them. Last year's was too disturbing to even describe the plot line... let's just say this is not really as scary as you'd think... but very "I can't believe they're allowed to perform that"-type-of-disturbing. Guys - NOT great for a date!!
In the past, I've also been to a "adults only" haunted house at the club formerly known as Cherry Red (now one of my favorites, Uncle Fatty's Rum Resort) on Sheffield just north of Diversey. Unfortunately we thought it was "adults only" just because you were allowed to mingle at the bar beforehand and bring drinks through the haunted house, followed by a free shot of liquor at the end; we learned the hard way that "adults only" meant "adult themed" and was geared more towards necrophiliacs.
