Touted as a costumed spookfest for the whole family, Ragdale invited all ghosts and goblins to their Lake Forest retreat to enjoy live performances, hands-on art projects, games, and seasonal tastings during their “Rags to Witches” event last weekend. Guests toured the Haunted Ragdale House, had spooky encounters in the Garden of Good and Evil, took in some ghostly tales during story time, and enjoyed some sweet treats. The event was inspired by Ghostly, a collection of ghost stories edited and illustrated by acclaimed author and Ragdale alumna Audrey Niffenegger. ragdale.org
