We’ll also have a selfie station, minute-to-win-it games and prizes, snowball fights, crafts galore (button making, sticker making, etc.), life-size games, and many more activities. Plus, you’ll have a chance to win gift cards and other fun prizes.

Grab your friends and create your own adventure Friday night.

When there’s something strange in your neighborhood, who you gonna call? Maybe yourself?

Are you more Venkman, or Spengler? Erin, or Abby? Or are you maybe more Shaggy or Velma?

No matter your ghostbusting style, you can pick up a trick or two at Paranormal Investigation on Thursday, October 19, at 7PM, at Douglas County Libraries in Lone Tree. Register here.

I ain’t afraid of no ghosts! See you there.
