“Fright Night”
at the Library
Be prepared to be scared! The Greenville Public Library’s second
annual “Fright Night” haunted library will take place Halloween weekend
on both Friday October 30th & Saturday October 31st from 7:00 to
10:00. The Library will be closed at 3:00 on Friday and all day
on Saturday.
This event is being conducted by Gateway Youth with assistance from
other community groups such as the ACES kids, Darke County Recovery
staff, the Library staff, and the GHS theater group. They’re busy
building scenes and characters and preparing costumes and makeup.
Some of the scenes encountered along the pre-designated route will be a
chamber of horrors, a zombie graveyard, a mad scientist’s laboratory, a
haunted maze, and the usual witches, monsters, and aliens. You’ll be
surprised, shocked, and spooked!
Price is $5 per person at the door. “Fright Night” is a fundraising
event for Gateway, which is a non-profit. As Support Specialist Ruth
Barga explains, Gateway is a program that helps kids in resolving
socialization issues, improving grades, learning good manners, helping
with stress and family dynamics, and becoming involved in the
community. See gatewayyouthprograms.org.
October 30th, 31st, and November 1st are the dates for the Darke County
Center for the Arts “Ghost Walk” which begins next door at the Memorial
Hall. This year they’re featuring a new ghost story about the
Library! You won’t want to miss either event this
Halloween. Bring the whole family for fun, thrills, and a little
local history!
