Best bet: An Evening of Ghost Storytelling

Southeast Missourians don't have to wait until the spring for storytelling in Cape Girardeau. The city has again organized a fall event and added a ghostly component: An Evening of Ghost Storytelling. The Convention and Visitors Bureau invited Gayle Ross and Regina Carpenter to share their stories with people on blankets or in lawn chairs from 7 to 9:30 p.m. today. The women will share light stories from 7 to 8 p.m. After a short break, they will enter into more sinister and scary stories until 9:30 p.m. Tickets are $10; children younger than 12 are free. Tickets are available at the visitors bureau or by calling 335-1631.
