SPOOK-A-THON @ The Concourse

The Concourse announces the SPOOK-A-THON Halloween event featuring a wide variety of family friendly activities. The event will kick off with the Spooky Train and Spooky Trail on September 27 and 28, and every Friday and Saturday in October as well as Sunday October 27. Spooky Town and Spooky Fun will be open the last weekend only. The Grand Concourse Railroad club has designed a miniature train ride which winds past the spine-tingling morgue, the looney asylum, and other creepy creations that will delight and thrill. Volunteer actors who previously created the wildly popular Angelus Haunted Halloween are bringing their terrifying talents to The Concourse. The Spooky Trail haunted walking path through the woods will feature animated special effects, live actors and unexpected chilling surprises. The child sized village of Pasco Safety Town will come to life as Spooky Town with lighted buildings, face painting, and trunk or treat Friday and Saturday October 25 and 26 only. Spooky Fun at the jumbo Rotary Pavilion will offer Spooky Fun and entertainment for kids Friday and Saturday October 25 and 26 only. Hours are from 5:00 PM to 7:15 PM for the Daylight Train, which may be best for young or sensitive children. The Spooky Train and Spooky Trail will run from 7:30 PM to 9:30 PM. Spooky Town and Spooky Fun will be open from 5:00 PM to 9:30 PM on the last Friday and Saturday before Halloween, October 25 and 26 only. The cost is $6.00 each for entry to either the Spooky Train or Spooky Trail, or $10.00 for both. Spooky Fun will also be $6.00 to enter on the last Friday and Saturday, or $15.00 for all three.
