It’s October again, and that means Halloween is coming, which in turn means that Scary History Tours are back from the Bureau of Historical Investigation. The Bureau’s Good Time Girls promise to “thrill and chill you with local lore and real history!” If your staff have the stomach for it, the tours offer a great opportunity for a Fall team building exercise. They also provide those of an entrepreneurial spirit the chance to see a successful homegrown business in action, and maybe pick up some inspiration alongside the trauma.

What you need to know:

• Bellingham tours take place on Friday and Saturday nights, and meet at the Bureau of Historical Investigation
• Fairhaven tours take place on Friday nights only, and meet in the indoor courtyard of the Sycamore Square Building
• A special tour + costume masquerade takes place on Wednesday, October 29th at Bayou on the Bay.
• Bellingham tours are Friday and Saturday nights, running all month. Fairhaven tours are Friday nights only.
• General admission is $15.
• Special tarot readings from a local psychic can be purchased for $10 after Saturday Downtown tours, or palm readings for $8 after the Fairhaven tours.

The tours are rated R for violence, gore, and language, so minors between 13-17 must be accompanied by an adult. To purchase tickets or learn more visit the Bureau’s event page.
