Supporters coming to Saturday's game will be treated to something a little different to mark the Club's fantastic knock-down £1 family day offer and celebrate the spookiest night of the year, Halloween.
Before the game and at half-time Dr Haze and some acts from his world-renowned Circus of Horrors will be climbing into bottles, performing acrobatics and doing much much more to entertain the crowd.
The Circus of Horrors travel all over the world performing for amazed audiences and have also appeared on This Morning, Soccer AM and the Ant & Dec show.
We caught up with the man behind it all, Dr Haze, and he introduced some of the acts he'll be bringing to Deepdale on a day when PNE will be hoping to give Palace the frights on the pitch.
"We'll try and bring and something a bit different, hopefully it will be a Circus of Horrors off the pitch rather than on the pitch as far as we're concerned. Hopefully we'll bring them a bit of good luck, scare Crystal Palace and see lots of goals from North End and entertainment from the Circus of Horrors.
"We're going to bring the voodoo warriers who'll be performing acrobatics and leaping over a giant flag, keeping it as PNE as possible. We're also hopeful of bringing Gary Stretch, the Stretchiest Man in the World and Captain Dan, our 4'1" dwarf, fans will be able to meet them both on the day. There'll be our beautiful girl in a bottle and the hula hoop girl so there'll be a whole host of bizarre and unusual people."
Haze is a lifelong supporter of North End and is confident that his appearance on the pitch on Saturday will be as memorable as his last time on the hallowed turf.
"My dream ever since I was a kid was to be a player and run down the tunnel at Deepdale. I've certainly run on the pitch many times, against Birmingham in 2001, I ripped a bit of the pitch up after the Torquay game which is up on the wall at home. It's not my first time on the Deepdale pitch but hopefully it will be a memorable one.
"I live in London now so I go to whatever away games I can do and come to Deepdale four or five times a year. The last one was the Tottenham game and the next one will hopefully be the Blackpool one because we finish there a couple of nights previous."
Haze's Circus of Horrors are on tour at the moment and the full show is now on down the M55 in Blackpool.
"We're at Blackpool at the Pleasure Beach at the moment and then we're at Blackburn and the King Georges Hall after that, and Manchester and Liverpool, and then we're back in the Guild Hall in Preston on Saturday 23rd January. We'll give the fans a bit of a taster on Saturday and then the full thing when we're on stage."
On Friday Haze and some of his entertainers will be with North End representatives on the flag market promoting the game and the £1 family day offer.
