Looking for something spooky to do this weekend? You're invited to a chilling live performance at Antoinette Hall on Sunday night, Oct. 29. This Haunted October event includes The Eras of Horror. Rooms adjacent to the 1868 Antoinette Hall Opera House on the east side of the Pulaski Square have been turned into scenes from some of the scariest movies of all times recreated by local actors. Also included is Haunted Antoinette Hall, during which the ghosts of those associated with the venue as well as the ghosts of those who remain there, are coming to life inside the historic and very haunted Opera House. This event is for youth over 13 and adults only, and one ticket covers all the activities. Everyone participating is a volunteer.
