Windy City Paranormal Festival

From spirits and cryptids to UFOs, psychic phenomena, hauntings, and all things wonderfully weird, this is the place. For three days in the heart of Chicago’s magical summer, you’ll dive deep into a thrilling lineup: spine-tingling storytelling, live podcasts, cocktail parties, sultry burlesque shows, paranormal investigations, gallery readings, and our fan-favorite Paranormal Pictionary (mystery

host soon to be unveiled). Plus, enjoy Movie Madness with the fabulous Jessica Knapik, sing your heart out during Scary-oke, explore a spooky art show, take a haunting cemetery tour, and shop unique vendors. And then there’s the ultimate bash: Paranormal Prom, hosted by your beloved Prom Queens, Nicole and Noëlle from the Quite Unusual Podcast. WCPF MISSION: Our focus is to lift new voices in the paranormal community, emphasizing accuracy in historical discourse, and using appropriate, respectful communication in locations steeped in violence and trauma. A portion of the proceeds for Windy City ParaFest will be donated to Greater Than Hate, a coalition of the nation’s leading human rights and equality organizations. Windy City ParaFest is for folks 21+

Lineup subject to change.
