Details Released About Upcoming Fright Night Tours In RivCo

RIVERSIDE COUNTY, CA — Organizers of the 26th annual "Ghost Walk Riverside" tours Friday revealed the locations where re-enactments and storytellings intended to bring the city's haunted past to light are planned.

Tours will "range from the perfect youngster spook-fest to more daring tours for the adventurous visitor," according to the California Riverside Ballet, which manages the events.

"Tours are new each year and no two have ever been alike," according to the CRB. "This event has the esteemed reputation for attracting artists from various areas, making a truly exceptional collaboration. Writers, storytellers, actors, musicians and vocalists all take part in a display of talent and walking adventure."

This year, tour attendees will be treated to one of four downtown outings that occur hourly on the nights of Oct. 27 and 28.

"The Legend of Dalton Manor" will give participants behind-the-scenes details about ghoulish incidents in the Loring Building and around the Mission Inn Rotunda.

"Deadly Demons" will take walkers through the old county morgue adjacent to the Riverside Hall of Justice, as well as through the alleys behind the Lake Alice Bar, where bloody lore will be recounted.

"Riverside Horror Story" will travel the halls of the Riverside Municipal Museum and Tilden Coil, and "Cleansing Fire" will put tour-goers in a vacant downtown building and the Box Theater for thrills and chills, according to organizers.

High school students perform the re-enactments and act as the goblins, apparitions, victims, malefactors and other Halloweenish figures who populate the tours, all of which begin on the Main Street pedestrian mall at the intersection of Main Street and University Avenue.

Proceeds from ticket sales benefit the ballet and its programs.
