Our own Davis Graveyard (map it: 8703 SE 43rd Ave.) is up and running for its 30th year. The display will be up for the full month, but if you want to see its full glory unveiled:
- Every Monday – Thursday: Lights from dusk to 10pm
- Every Friday & Saturday: Lights and full effects from dusk to 11pm
- Every Sunday: Lights and full effects from dusk to 10pm
Don’t forget to visit the merch booth! And on top of those regular hours, they’ve got some special events planned:
Weekends in October: “Beyond the Gate” Graveyard Tours
Private tours for groups of up to six are on sale now at $20 per person. If you’d like a closer look at the Graveyard, go here to grab a spot before they sell out.
Tours are non-refundable, and held weather permitting. They will do their best to reschedule any missed tours. Well-behaved children and pets (free) welcome. Dress for walking on grass and uneven surfaces. Dress weather-appropriate; the whole tour is outside.
Sunday, October 11 (11am – 5pm): Open House
The street will be closed, and you’re invited to come see the Graveyard beyond the gate…
Also at the Open House: The DG is partnering with its friends at HorrOregon/Staples Spine for their 33rd for the 31st drive, collecting Halloween costumes and raincoats for kids this season. There is a cool box out front for you to put your donations in all season.
Bring a new or gently used costume or raincoat to the Open House on Sunday, October 11 (11am – 5pm). Anyone who donates will receive a special DG trinket as a thank-you!
Weekly in October: Skeleton Raffle
The DG will be holding a weekly raffle for one of its life-size skeleton props! Tickets are $1 each.
Saturday, October 31: Davis Graveyard Block Party!
On Saturday, October 31, the DG’s neighbors are getting into the spirit, and students from School of Rock will be playing some Halloweenish tunes. Come celebrate 30 years of the (and your) Davis Graveyard!
