The community is invited to two Halloween events at Greenville College. A haunted house sponsored by the Greenville College bands will open Oct. 28 at 6 p.m. to raise funds for the Simple Room, and the residence halls will be open for trick-or-treating on Oct. 31 starting at 6 p.m.
On Oct. 28, students associated with the Greenville College bands will transform the basement of the Whitlock Music Center into "Nightmare Off Elm Street." The haunted house will be open for all ages from 6 p.m. until 11 p.m. General admission is $4 and student admission is $2. All proceeds will go to the Simple Room, a local nonprofit organization that provides free youth programs.
Trick-or-treaters are invited to visit Greenville College residence halls on Oct. 31 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Burritt Hall will serve as the starting point for a tour that leads through several residence halls and ends with outdoor games and activities. Residence halls will be decorated with themes including Hogwarts, video game world, enchanted forest, carnival land, and School of Rock. Burritt Hall is located just off of Beaumont Avenue. This event is free, and parking is available at the campus parking lot on Prairie Street as well as Lot A between Burritt Hall and the tennis courts. Parents are asked to accompany children.
