Tales of the Crypt Moved to Parkview

The 24th Annual Tales of the Crypt at Mount Holly Cemetery
Rescheduled for Tuesday, October 16, 2018
has been moved!
Tales of the Crypt will be held Tuesday, October 16, 2018
in the AUDITORIUM at
PARKVIEW ARTS & SCIENCE MAGNET HIGH SCHOOL
2501 John Barrow Road
6:30 PM

Tales of the Crypt is sponsored by the Mount Holly Cemetery Association and LRSD Parkview Arts-Science Magnet High School. Admission is free to the public. Donations to Mount Holly Cemetery are appreciated and aid in the maintenance of the cemetery.

Parkview students will recreate the lives of Arkansans who have helped shape Little Rock’s history. The students have researched each character and prepared original scripts for the performance under the direction of Tamara Zinck with award-winning local costumer Debi Manire providing the historical characters’ costumes.

Due to rain last Tuesday evening AND the predicted forecast of rain on Tuesday, October 16th, we made the difficult decision to move the performance to the Parkview Auditorium.

PLEASE DON’T MISS THIS BELOVED EVENT!

We thank you for your patience and understanding and hope to see you on Tuesday, October 16, 2018, at 6:30 pm at the Parkview Auditorium!

Tales of the Crypt is postponed until next week

Mount Holly and Parkview’s Drama Department have postponed this year’s presentation of Tales of the Crypt.

Stormy weather is predicted to be in Little Rock this evening. While a rollicking thunderstorm enhances a good ghost story, it could damage the performers’ costumes, cause someone to be struck by lightning, douse the lanterns, and make the cemetery a dangerous place to be in the dark.

And besides, we aren’t telling ghost stories at Tales of the Crypt – we’re sharing history.

You’ll still have your chance this year to hear the stories, see the costumes, and enjoy the flickering lanterns of Mount Holly at night. Tales of the Crypt will happen next week, Tuesday, October 16, 2018. Groups will be ushered through the cemetery beginning at 6:00 p.m.

See you next week!
