Take A Haunting Walking Tour in Fullerton

If you are looking to get spooked this Halloween, the Fullerton Museum Center’s “Haunted Fullerton Walking Tours” may just scare the socks off of you. The event is returning for its 16th straight year and features tours given on Wednesday and Thursday evenings from 6:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m from now until Nov. 5 (so there is still time to get spooked). On Halloween, the Museum will offer a special tour with an extra bit of scariness. The tours tend to be quite popular and do book up quickly (particularly the actually Halloween tour).  If you plan to have some Halloween fun, be sure to book your tours now.

 

These events can be quite scary and they are not recommended for any young children under the age of 13 (and even then, it might be too much). Have a safe and fun Halloween, and be sure to avoid any ghosts on the tour. Here is some more info on the event and a link to purchase tickets.
