This year’s Fremont Ghost House is getting ready to creak open its doors for spooky and not-so-spooky Halloween tours. This year the theme ‘This is Halloween’ pays homage to movies such as The Nightmare Before Christmas.
The Ghost House and carnival midway will open Oct. 11. The house is open seven days a week, closed on Mondays Oct. 13 and 20, and on Oct. 31 so kids can go trick-or-treating in their own neighborhoods. Oct. 18 is a special day to go, with a children’s costume parade, and lights-on tour where people can see the spooky sets in detail.
The nonprofit behind the 55-year-old event, Candle Lighters, raises money for local community groups and nonprofits through ticket sales.
