Boys & Girls Club of Palm Springs is excited to host Night Scare Before Christmas, a haunted house, on December 18 and 19 from 7:30 to 10:30 p.m.
“This will be a haunted house with a holiday theme but definitely not for the faint of heart,” said Terry Tatum, President of Boys & Girls Club of Palm Springs. “We look forward to welcoming all members of the community to experience the fun.”
Attendees will approach an unsuspecting entrance, but once on the other side, will be lead down a meandering path around the pool area and see the full effect of the Christmas themed haunted house come to life.
Food and drinks will be available for purchase, as well as raffle tickets for prizes, music, games, face painting and an arts and crafts area.
Admission to Night Scare Before Christmas is $15 for adults and $10 for children, with the last group admitted no later than 10:15 p.m. Attendees who bring an unwrapped toy for a child will receive $5 off their ticket price. This event is open to the public and will be held at the Club (450 S. Sunrise Way).
To purchase tickets or for more information, contact Monica Escobar at (760) 327-1304.
