If you are looking for a good scare and fun time – Park University is the place to be tonight. The campus will host its annual Fright Night event Friday, Oct. 25, for all students and community members.

Activities will include a “Day of the Dead” booth, ghost fishing, face painting and ring toss.

Student organizations will also be involved in activities such as The Pirate Radio station offering a cake walk and the Political Science Club will sponsor “Zombie Presidents,” where people can throw slime balls at the presidents.

The residence halls will also be in the Halloween sprit as each level of the buildings will get more frightening as people go through the hall.

“It’s a community activity and a fun activity,” said Ben Zibers, coordinator for Student Engagement.

Getting into the haunting mood is nothing new at Park University. In past years, Park student’s activities organizations hosted ghost hunting during welcome week. Old legends have been explored including rumors of old sailors and a suicide on campus in decades past.

Student Justin Love has gone ghost hunting for about three years and also has done graveyard hunting.

Love said he had a ghostly encounter on campus during one of these hunting adventures.

“I started getting this weird feeling and I felt someone grab my shoulders and no one was behind me,” he said.

After turning the lights back off, Love started to walk around and he said he felt a pressure force him to his knees where he laid on the ground for two to three minutes.

After the event, paramedics were called and Love said that his health was normal. According to Love, the event happened around 10:15 p.m. or 10:30 p.m. and he said he is sure that it really happened.

“It’s all true,” he said.

Fright night and Park University’s ghostly legends are two things that will scare you this Halloween. For more information about Fright Night visit www.park.edu.
