For many folks, the most wonderful time of the year is when they get to adorn their homes in skeletons and dress up as Morticia Addams - HALLOWEEN!!

Make it extra fun and extra spooky this year by celebrating in the cir. 1847 Chocolate Church with the 3rd annual all-ages Haunted Ragtime Halloween party. Do you believe in ghosts?
