Spookomotive trains depart every hour on the hour, from the Central Pacific Railroad Freight Depot at Front and “K” Streets in Old Sacramento. The diesel-powered “Spookomotive” pulls the whimsically decorated train (crawling with spiders, cobwebs and cornstalks), staffed by—what else? —a “skeleton crew.” Crawl aboard for a fun-filled, 40-minute, six-mile roundtrip ride along the Sacramento River!
Tickets: $9 adults, $4 youths (ages 6-17), ages 5 and under ride free.

SAFE AND SUPER HALLOWEEN: Monster Mash
5pm-9pm (both Saturday and Sunday)
Fairytale Town: 3901 Land Park Drive Sacramento, CA
TRICK-OR-TREAT IN NEVERLAND! It's three nights of Family Fun with Peter Pan and company at Fairytale Town's 22nd Annual Safe Super Halloween October 24, 25, 26, 2008 Sacramento-area children don't need any pinches of pixie dust to make Halloween fun last a little longer this year. All they need is a week's head start at Fairytale Town for an Escape to Neverland. For the 22nd straight year, Fairytale Town will turn its entire park into trick-or-treating territory during its popular Safe Super Halloween. Children can have their run of the park in a unique experience of Halloween fun. This year's Halloween theme is "Escape to Neverland," and it comes complete with live puppet shows throughout the evening from Puppet Art Theatre and plenty of hands-on activities for children of all ages, including some very special guests.
Plus, with 17 different candy stations around the park, children--and parents-- can rest assured that there will be enough candy to go around. Costumes are, of course, strongly encouraged. "The theme this year is J.M. Barrie's Neverland, but you don't have to be a Peter Pan fan to have a good time," says John Lee, Fairytale Town's resident Theatre Arts Educator. "We'll have plenty of special surprises for everybody. Super Heroes, Princesses, Monsters and Cartoon Characters are all welcome. Variety is always a hit in our annual Costume Parade. " . Fairytale Town will be closing early these days in preparation for the event. Gates will close at 2 PM and the park will close at 3 PM. The park will reopen again for Safe Super Halloween at 5 PM. The mission of Fairytale Town is to promote the imagination, creativity and education of children.
