Suburbicon is a peaceful, idyllic, suburban community with affordable homes and manicured lawns — the perfect place to raise a family, and in the summer of 1959, the Lodge family is doing just that. But the tranquil surface masks a disturbing reality, as husband and father Gardner Lodge must navigate the town’s dark underbelly of betrayal, deceit and violence. The film stars Matt Damon, Julianne Moore and Oscar Isaacs.

It’s almost “soup weather”! Although, here in Colorado, one day, it’s perfect for a hot bowl of soup and the next day you can be wearing shorts. In any case, Schlotzsky’s is serving up a hot deal (literally) this week. On Wednesday, October 18, stop by any location and get a FREE bowl of soup — no purchase necessary. (The deal was announced on Twitter — click here.)

Based on its menu, there are lots of slurp-worthy choices, including Bistro French Onion, Broccoli & Cheese, Chicken Tortilla, Chicken & Wild Rice and more. (Selection will vary by location.) In the metro area, there are only two locations — Aurora and Greenwood Village. (The location at DIA is not participating.) There are also several locations in Colorado Springs. Grab a spoon and start slurping!

This radio station freebie is music to our ears. If you love a good scare, but fear those haunted house ticket prices, you’ll appreciate this fall freebie from KTCL Channel 93.3. On Tuesday, October 17, starting at 7 p.m., they’re giving the first 93 people in line at the Channel 93.3 tent FREE admission to The Asylum Haunted House. (A ticket is regularly $27.99!) Now, grab your friends and scare up a good time without breaking the bank. The Asylum Haunted House is located at 6100 E. 39th Ave. in Denver.

BOO! We’re giving away tickets again! It’s that time of the year for thrills, chills and screams…lots and lots of screams! And one of the best places in town to scream at the top of your lungs is the Haunted Field of Screams (10451 McKay Rd.) in Thornton — now in its 17th year.

It’s the largest haunted attraction in Colorado. The moonlight is your only guide, as daunting 16 foot tall cornstalks surround you on a trail with terror awaiting you around every corner. All of your worst fears will be realized, as you journey through the crazy cornfield.

Along the way encounter various themed scenes and rooms that will surely test your courage in every way. (For the record, I can never be in the front or back of the group — always the middle!) In the end, you’ll scream in fright (and delight at seeing your friends shriek and squirm, too!)

Our “creepy” friends at the haunted attraction gave us a 4-pack of tickets ($104 value) to share with one lucky (or, is it “unlucky”?) reader. [Read more…] about Enter To Win: 4-Pack of Tickets to Haunted Field of Screams
