La Grange Celebrates Halloween With Skeletober, Thriller Dance
Skeletober is once again bringing dressed up skeletons all over town. This Saturday, enjoy dressed up dancers performing "Thriller."
LA GRANGE, IL — No, your eyes haven’t been playing tricks on you: you really have seen a skeleton Bob Ross in La Grange.
For the sixth year, skeletons dressed up as anyone from Fred Astaire to Princess Diana have been popping around town as part of Skeletober. Over 40 skeletons are on display throughout the downtown business district from Oct. 1 to Oct. 31.
La Grangers are encouraged to download a walking map, find the skeletons, take a photo, and then post it on Facebook by tagging the La Grange Business Association and using the hashtag #skeletober to be entered in random prize drawings. Through the end of the month, visitors can take part in a scavenger hunt to also be entered into a prize drawing. Instructions can be found at skeletober.com.
