Q11. The yearly Spooky #ParkChat celebration comes to an end. It's always my favorite honor to be your spooky ranger host. I'll see y'all in 2025! Until then...tell me what park you wish you could be in this All Hallows Eve. 🎃🌙🦉

Q5. It feels like sometimes, we stumble upon things we weren't meant to see. 🫣 Have you ever stumbled upon something creepy while visiting a park? 😱 #ParkChat

Q4. Halloween and the autumn season ushers in the time of the year when the dark of night begins to outpace the daylight of summer. Do you prefer night or day when visiting your park sites? ☀️🌄🌌🌙 #ParkChat

A3. i hear the trick or treating is pretty great in death valley, but i think being on alcatraz island when the guards and their families lived there and had halloween parties was probably so much fun. #ParkChat

A1. this one is so hard to say. different places have different pasts...but i currently work at a battlefield, and i can say, the vibes feel very different when the sun goes down. 👀 #ParkChat

Q2. Bloody battlefields, pitch-black caverns, historic homes, spooky shorelines, and so much more; our land management agencies protect a plethora of different environments and histories. Which type of park seems the most likely to be haunted? 🦇🏚️⛈️ #ParkChat

A1. i think they absolutely do! i've been to so many parks across the country that evolve beautifully with the halloween season, and have some great spooky stories/places/vibes. #ParkChat
