FAQ:
IS THIS A CHILD-FRIENDLY EVENT?
For older children, yes, this is a child-friendly event. Kids may be a bit scared, in a fun way.
IS PARKING A PROBLEM?
There’s plenty of parking, tho you may have to walk a block or two. Park anywhere on the surrounding neighborhood streets.
HOW IS THIS GHOST WALK DIFFERENT FROM PAST YEARS?
In past years, we’ve had storytellers telling haunted tales. In recent years, we've encountered over a dozen 'Night Creatures' who will each do a scary act. So there will be over a dozen attractions, including two people who will tell ghost stories.
HOW WILL I FIND YOU?
Our sign-in desk is in front of the cemetery gate (a little to the left of the gate, as you face the gate from the street).
DOES THIS TAKE PLACE IN THE CEMETERY?
No. The cemetery closes at dark unless they are hosting an event. We walk along the houses along the haunted streets, among Night Creatures.
DO WE WEAR COSTUMES?
Participants generally do not wear costumes, but you are welcome to, if you'd like. That would be fun.
