TALES OF TERROR FROM PROCTOR VALLEY
4-5PM WEDNESDAY AND 7-8PM THURSDAY NIGHT, 10/31 — FOR A HAUNTING GOOD TIME, KNSJ PRESENTS A HALLOWEEN SPECIAL STORYTELLING HOUR with ~~ghostly sightings and bone-chilling sounds~~
WHAT DO YOU THINK? ARE THE STORIES JUST STORIES—-OR—-?
NOT every city is lucky enough to have its own monster; Chula Vista, meanwhile, has the distinct honor of being home to a unique legendary creature: the “Proctor Valley Monster.” The rural wilderness east of town has inspired a broad range of haunting, supernatural legends, told by several generations of Chula Vista residents. This Halloween season, throughout September and October, come and hear various professional storytellers performing these eerie, mysterious tales.
