Judging by the crowds and vehicle traffic, hundreds of little ghouls, ghosts, and goblins braved the Haunting of Powers Pond last Tuesday evening. Among them were Eloise, 10, and Jensen, 4, Sheppard of Paradise, left photo, accompanied by parents Nathan and Chelsea. The haunted walk, hosted by the City of Mount Pearl, has become a favourite spooky activity for residents seeking a good thrill. This year’s event ran from October 17 to 26, and the City offered three variations of the walk depending on the day; a regular haunted walk, an extra scary haunted walk, and a sensory-friendly walk.
Admission was by donation to the Salvation Army food bank. Collecting donations on Tuesday night were (right photo) Dominic Stratton and Georgia Hollett. Mark Squibb photos
