The Wimberley Players and 7A Ranch have teamed up to bring Haunted Pioneer Town to the Texas Hill Country. Enjoy an evening of frightful family fun in a nostalgic frontier setting. Pioneer life was hard. It’s even harder when it’s haunted. Life on the Texas frontier was a constant struggle with gun fights, drought, snakes, coyotes and...ghosts?!
An old-time radio play will be performed in the Opera House at regular intervals throughout the weekend interspersed with spooky tales from Tim Tingle, popular area storyteller.
Perhaps these ghosts still dwell in Pioneer Town. The Wimberley Players, 7A Ranch and area volunteers are collaborating to haunt Pioneer Town at 333 Wayside Dr. in Wimberley on Oct. 25-27.
Experience shivers and shakes with ghouls, ghosts and other scary creatures not often found in your normal pioneer village. As darkness falls on Oct. 25 and 26, the gates will be open from 7:30 to 10:30 p.m. and Oct. 27 from 7:30 to 9:30 p.m. Ticket sales close at 10 p.m. on Friday and Saturday and at 9 p.m. on Sunday.
Admission to the creepy community is $10 for ages 13 and up, $5 for ages 5 to 12, and free for children under 5. This is a fundraiser for the Wimberley Players and the restoration of Pioneer Town.
“Funds raised help the Wimberley Players further their mission to bring amazing theater to Wimberley and the Hill Country,” Artistic Director Tracy Arnold said. Come support these organizations and have the britches scared off of you at the same time.
An old-time radio play will be performed in the Opera House at regular intervals throughout the weekend interspersed with spooky tales from Tim Tingle, popular area storyteller. The radio play will also be broadcast Halloween night on KWVH 94.1 FM-Wimberley Valley Radio at 7 p.m.
