The Indian Ghost Trackers Annual Halloween Party takes place this year again in Crown Point, Indiana on October 27th 2006 at 8:00 P.M.. This costume party is the high point of the Graveyard Theatre year and each year it just keeps getting bigger and better. This year not only will they have a live band again but also a DJ for when the band wants to take a break and party. No where else can you meet so many people who are into ghost and live like it is Halloween all year long than at this party. So if you’re just into ghost or into drinking this is the place for you. Check out their website www.indianaghosts.org for more details and updates. This year Graveyard Theatre will not be hosting the party or judging the costume contest because basically we are taking a break this year. Instead we will have a table set up with items for sale such as pictures, shirts, DVD’s, etc. We will also be available for pictures and autographs and to sit down, drink, and get to know you. Graveyard Theatre will also be giving away a few DVD’s of the show and maybe other items as door prizes. If you are looking for something to do for Halloween you can’t go wrong at this party. Pay bar and food are also there. There’s a small door fee to get in but it is worth every dollar. Hope to see all you little monsters there if you’re not afraid.
