Halloween Homicide Haunting – 6 PM – Crime Scene Entertainment, 1701 N 4th St, Suite D, Coeur d’Alene, Shade Hallow Manor is a 17th-century mansion in Dark Cloud, an isolated town covered in dense fog. Built in 1670 by an author named Shade Hallow, the estate is an unkept eyesore. Final members of the Hallow lineage passed away in the 1700’s, leaving the estate in the hands of the townspeople. It remained neglected due to the legend that Shade Hallow’s ghost roams the corridors at night. The townspeople banned together to remodel and reinstate the property as a historic bed and breakfast. Most people stand behind the idea, although a few are adamantly against the pursuit – claiming the manor is haunted and should be left alone.
