It’s that time again!  Get ready to hear about ghoulies and ghosties that make their home in Belton as you stroll down the historic streets during the Belton Area Museum Association’s fourth annual Halloween Ghost Walk.

Six all-new historic properties are on the tour. Zalin’s Department Store (present-day Palmetto Roots Salon), the Cobb/Garrett House, the The Charles Berry Lewis House, the Floride Cox House, the Central School, and  the site of the original city jail (present day Belton Tire Company) are all scheduled stops.  Exteriors of homes and businesses will be accessible and spine-tingling stories attached to each property will be shared by costumed presenters of the Belton-Honea Path High School drama team.

Price per person ($10 adults, $5 children 10 and under) includes guided tours of historic properties and unusual entertainment. Purchasing advanced tickets is encouraged as slots fill up quickly.  Price rises to $15 if purchased the day of the event.

Tours begin at 6 PM and will depart from the depot every 15 minutes until 8:15 PM. Each tour will last approximately 1 1/2 hours. Limited slots are available. Tours will be family-friendly in content.

Tickets are on sale now and can be purchased by visiting or calling the museum during regular opening hours, Wednesday–Friday, 9 – 2 and Saturday 10 – noon.

Make plans to attend now. All attendees should wear comfortable walking shoes and bring a flashlight. Wearing facemasks and practicing social distancing is encouraged.
