Rob Zombie’s Great American Nightmare

Rob Zombie has dreamed up the ultimate Halloween event, combining three “horrific, bone-chilling” haunted houses with 15 nights of music. The lineup for the includes Andrew W.K., The Used, Ozomatli and pro-wrestlers Lucha Libre.

The Nightmare takes place at the Fairplex in Pomona, Calif., scheduled on Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays: Oct. 10-13, Oct. 17-20, Oct. 24-27 and Oct. 31-Nov. 2.
