Tours leave every 10 minutes from the James Monroe Museum at 908 Charles St. with the last tour departing at 10 p.m. each night. Tickets are required.<\/p><p>Dressed in 18th century costume, more than 50 students and volunteers will take on roles as historical figures and ghostly characters, with some floating characters to give guests a frightful experience.<\/p><p>&ldquo;You have to be able to create atmosphere,&rdquo; said junior Ariadne Randolph, a returning tour guide. &ldquo;Improving the ghosts and getting people involved is what it&rsquo;s all about.&rdquo;<\/p><p>At each stop, guests will encounter creepy characters and familiar faces that will often interact with the group and put on a show.<\/p><p>&ldquo;Every year we are still surprised how good the turn-out is,&rdquo; said senior Maddie Quick, co-chair of the event. &ldquo;You would think the concept would get old, but after 31 years people continue to come back.&rdquo;<\/p><p>While the annual event doesn&rsquo;t stray far from it&rsquo;s original concept, the costumes and make-up division, overseen by co-chair Christine Pace, will feature a revamp this year.<\/p><p>&ldquo;In the past very heavy make-up has been seen on the characters, specifically the ghosts,&rdquo; said Quick. &ldquo;This year we decided to tone it down for a more realistic and spooky look.&rdquo;<\/p><p>Reservations can be made in advance at&nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:umwghostwalk@gmail.com\">umwghostwalk@gmail.com<\/a>&nbsp;or tickets can be purchased the night of the tour at the James Monroe Museum. The cost is $6 for the general public ages 13 and older; $4 for UMW students, UMW faculty and staff, UMW alumni and military; $3 for children ages 6-12; free for children age 6 and under.
