Haunted House '66

This house in Walla Walla was just a few blocks from our house on Palouse Street.  I thought that it looked like a haunted house, even before it was designated as such.  It became the Little Theatre Guild's haunted house for 1966.

A couple months after it closed,  the local fire department staged a "practice burn".  They set the house on fire and proceeded to extinguish the flame.  

The house was later torn down to make way for apartments.

Remember Walla Walla's Haunted House Of '65

A post on Joe Drazan's Bygone Walla Walla page brought back memories, in the mid 60s, my parents were very involved with Walla Walla's Little Theatre.  My dad was even in a few productions.  My brother Danny was also involved at one point. 

Around Halloween, they would stage a haunted house to help raise funds.  My dad is mentioned in the newspaper article for his involvement in the set up.  Costumes and props were probably of little problem since it was a theatre.
