1a25dd4d-0 To say that Reinke Brothers is unique is a 'gross' understatement. For those of you who haven't had the pleasure(?) of stepping into this conglomerate of everything creepy and crawly I urge you to take a deep breath and take the plunge… Greg and Chris Reinke are Littleton natives who have had a quirky passion for the macabre and unusual since their first haunted house in the basement of their home in 1968.

The rest is history with the 35th incarnation of their Haunted Mansion (the oldest in the Denver metro area) happening every evening September 30th through October 31st. With over 30 rooms filled with the latest in special effects and animations it's a must see for the entire family. Saturdays and Sundays have special lights-on tours for the young. The mansion is only part of the story as walking into their store is an experience in itself… Nowhere else in Denver will you see such an array of body parts, masks, wigs, creepy crawly things, and everything Halloween.
