About GhostWalk
GhostWalk was started by a group of Santa Paula Theater supporters and volunteers, not only as a fundraiser for the theater, but also as a way to tell stories -- told by great actors – in great, historic locations that change from year to year.
Not all of our ghosts are based on real people, but all of the tales are tied to historic people, incidents, disasters, or general history of the city of Santa Paula and the Santa Clara River Valley.

The Venue
This year's production of GhostWalk will be at the old Ford Dealership at S. Hallock Dr and the 126.
|
Ford Delearship - If you're headed east on the 126 from Ventura, you will encounter a stop light at the intersection of the 126 and South Hallock Dr. To your left you will see a 76 gas station, car wash and a Del Taco among other things and will want to turn right toward the Shell Station and just past that you will see the old Ford Dealership. The buildings on this lot have been empty for some time and as with most empty buildings, they creek and moan with the ghosts of a forgotten past. Not the documented past. Somewhere you are likely to find some old newspaper stories or legal papers, when pieced together, tell a tale of the concrete and asphalt that make up this venue. But it is the forgotten stories we are interested in. Ghostwalk is an opportunity for ghosts to come and tell their stories about life and death and perhaps pass on a bit of wisdom before departing for the great unknown. They are attracted to the familiar, and though they may not have necessarily worked or frequented this particular venue, they are attracted by the familiarity of this particular venue.
