A Haunting Saturday at the Library

Fri, 10/28/2022 - 14:29

Fans of fright and things that go bump in the night may want to pick up their wooden stakes, put on their garlic necklaces, and make their way to the East Hampton Library on Saturday evening.

From 6 to 9 the place will be transformed into a haunted library with a "carn-evil" theme. The library warns that this one-night-only Halloween haunting is "not for the faint of heart or very small children" and that there will be strobe lights in some areas. Only people who have reserved a spot via the Eventbrite link on the library's website will be admitted. 

Thrill-seekers will enter in groups of 10.
