This year’s psycho-guided tours run Fridays and Saturdays from 6:30 p.m. until 11 p.m. and Sundays from 5 to 9 p.m. Admis- sion to the Haunted Library is $6 per person. From the creepy and sinister to the wickedly funny or just plain weird, this year’s “Dark Side of Time” haunt promises a jarring jaunt for time-travelers who dare to warp their way through the ages with monsters, ghouls, wicked creatures and foul beings out of legend. Nadine Young, of Dallas, a board member and fundraising chair for the Back Mountain Me- morial Library - and the motiva- ting force behind the Haunted Library - describes her crew of die-hard Halloweeners as, “..hardworking, creative and, yes, a little nuts!” “A handful of us get together to plan and organize a new haunted production each year,” explains Young. “It takes months and the actual construction, casting and rehearsals begin just weeks before opening night. It’s frantic, but the stuff these folks come up with year after year is amazing.” What started in 2003 as a sim- ple fundraiser for the Back Mountain Memorial Library has grown into a favorite annual Hal- loween event for the entire com- munity and remains completely volunteer-driven. Last year’s production boasted a cast and crew of close to 150 adult and stu- dent volunteers and drew more than 900 visitors from the Back Mountain area and beyond with 100 percent of the profits going to support the library. From construction to produc- tion, the Haunted Library is a veritable training ground for community-minded youth.

She's back again this year to advise the other students and, as she says, “Because I've been doing it since the beginning and it's a blast!” man High School students each volunteered at the Haunted Li- brary to fulfill community ser- vice requirements for their re- spective schools’ completion projects and Scouting awards. This year, seven students from both high schools will contrib- ute a combined total of close to 400 community service hours to the Haunted Library. “Working with the students and the kids is the best part,” Young says. It’s astounding how quickly and easily they jump into their roles. I really sense that these kids are learning leader- ship skills and how to think on their feet. Theyre having so much fun that I don’t think they even realize what a great thing they’re doing for the library and the community.” Fans of Halloween fun who would like to participate in the Haunted Library: “Dark Side of Time” may call the library recep- tion desk at 675-1182 to leave their contact information. The event is geared for ages 5 to adult and hand-held lights are available to kids still wary of the dark. Youngsters not yet ready for a haunted house can enjoy outdoor games and crafts on- site.
