FULLERTON Darkened gardened paths lined with gnarled branches and shrubs where witches, skeletons and ghosts hide.

What could be a better setting for some spooky Halloween fun than the gardens of the Fullerton Arboretum?

That's what the organizers of the Haunted Garden are counting on to attract Halloween revelers Oct. 26-28.

Tours are planned for 6:30 and 9:30 p.m. on Oct. 26 and 27; and for 5:30 and 7:30 p.m. on Oct. 28.

A "less-frightening" costume party for children ages 3-5 is planned from 1-3 p.m. on Oct. 27.

The cost with reservations is $10 for adults and $6 for children 12 and under.

The Arboretum is on the campus of Cal State Fullerton at 1900 Associated Road.
