It's the season for spooky, which means it's time for funeral parlor mini golf! Ahlgrims Funeral Home in Palatine boasts what is probably the world's most macabre miniature golf course, nine creepy holes meandering through the basement of this active funeral home. Anyone can play, as long as there's no funeral in progress. Call 847/358-7411 for more info.
