Do stories of haunted houses, monsters, gruesome murders, paranormal anomalies and macabre historical oddities get your heart racing?
Mr. Gabriel David Sumegi Newman the 2nd is hosting his 13th annual Ghost Tours of Vernon just in time for Halloween.
Starting from the steps between the Vernon museum and former library (3009-32nd Ave.), the outdoor walking tour runs Oct. 24 to 27 at 7 p.m.
A professional storyteller and performer, as well as education coordinator for the Greater Vernon Museum & Archives, Newman created his ghost tours as a way of combining the art of storytelling with local history.
The tour is approximately one hour and 21 minutes, and runs rain, snow or shine. Patrons should dress warm and wear appropriate footwear. Cost is $10/adult and $5 for 12 and under, payable directly to Newman. Cash only. No reservations are necessary unless booking a private tour for 20 or more.
