Ghost Walk Stories in Chestnut Hill
A neighborhood tradition is resurrected this Halloween season with the lantern-led Ghost Walk of Chestnut Hill on Saturday October 18, beginning at 5:30 pm.
Professional storytellers will startle, shock, and scintillate all ages at four different spooky stops in Chestnut Hill. Tours will leave every half hour from Chestnut Hill Library and end at Hilltop Books. The evening will be fun for all ages, with stories during the early hours being most appropriate for the youngest. The last tours of the evening will be for the bravest among us and will conclude with a creepy cocktail at Hilltop Books. Treats will be available for younger attendees throughout the evening.
The Chestnut Hill Ghost Walk is a fundraiser to support the Friends of the Chestnut Hill Library. Tickets are available online and at Hilltop Books, 84 Bethlehem Pike, and are just $10 each or $25 for a family. Please visit hilltopbooks.org for more information, volunteer opportunities, and tickets.
