Haunted Palouse returns Friday

The 18th annual Haunted Palouse arrives Friday with change in the air.

Many of the original 12 residents who founded the four-night event, and have worked it each year since, are stepping back as a new generation will take over much of it in 2020.

The final hurrah for these leaders, in the haunted town, its haunted printing museum, old firehouse and Shady Lane, will carry an increased ticket price to $25 from $20.

Last year, the 12-and-over event netted $70,000 for various Palouse community causes.

The run for 2019 will be this Friday and Saturday, Oct. 18-19, followed by Oct. 25-26.
