Looking for something spooky this Halloween season?
If so, come down to the Corbin Public Library Friday and Saturday for the annual Ghost Tour, which will take place from 5 – 8 p.m.
The Ghost Tour, which is free of charge, features costumed guides taking participants on a 20-30 minute walking tour from the library down Depot Street telling interesting stories about Corbin’s past with a few spooky historical facts thrown in for good measure.
In addition to the tour, there will be various things taking place inside the library too.
“Encounter the Ghostbusters, get your face painted, indulge in candy, and create spooky crafts. Challenge yourself with trivia, visit a fortune teller, be entertained by a magician who can even summon balloon animals and enjoy some fall refreshments.
