Deep in the heart of Yost park, there is a great tree, and in the fathomless earth under this tree lies the corporeal remains of the Yost Park Phantom. When the twilight air grows cool, and the mists rise off the Salish Sea, the spirit of the Yost Park Phantom rises from the earthen depths and begins its slow saunter through the park, calling out for companions to join it under the great tree for an eternal slumber. So walk softly along the park at twilight, and if you hear a faint calling from the shadows of the park, know that the Yost Park Phantom is near... Read more
Welcome aboard The Scary Skies! Please stow your bones—I mean bags—and fasten your seatbelts, especially if you're in row 26 with our disappearing door. As we prepare for a fretful flight, remember that extreme turbulence can strike at any time, alongside screaming children, arm-rest hogs, loud snorers, strong odors, cramped legs, long lines to our dirty restrooms, and the occasional ghost who loves to hit the back of your chair. In first class, enjoy our mystery meal, featuring a mystery meat, sauce, a vegetable, and a dinner roll sure to have rolled onto the floor—don’t worry, the five-second rule is always in effect! For your frustration, our flights are frequently cancelled or delayed, and your checked luggage may vanish. If you have a connection, well, good luck with that terror in the terminal On behalf of our senior crew, we look forward to scaring you! Boo! Read more
Captain Jonathan Thorn and the remains of the crew of the blighted ship, The Tonquin, have pulled themselves from their watery graves in Clayoquot Sound and up Shell Creek, seeking to plunder and pillage. The horrid tableau must be seen to be believed, if one can countenance such horror. 6 of the damn-ed crew, in Davy Jones’s locker since 1811, have hoisted themselves to haunt on Halloween night, but the sea creatures that snacked on them still bedevil these scalliwags. (Google “The Tonquin” to read more of the tragic tale.) Read more

Darkness falls across the land/ The midnight hour is close at hand/ Creatures crawl in search of blood/ To terrorize y'all's neighborhood/ And whosoever shall be found/ Without the soul for getting down/ Must stand and face the hounds of hell/ And rot inside a copse's shell. The foulest stench is in the air/ The funk of 40,000 years/ And grizzly ghouls from every tomb/ Are closing in to seal your doom/ And though you fight to stay alive/ Your body starts to shiver/ For no mere mortal can resist/ The evil of The Thriller!!!

Meet Walnut's crow-bot Sustain! Made from entirely recyclable materials, we wanted to challenge ourselves to a "buy nothing" approach to making our scarecrow again this year. Designed and built by Grace Doquilo, our only expense was duct tape. Impressive! And Sustain has two messages for you. First - plant based milks are yummy, better for the planet, and we don't up-charge for them at Walnut. Second, we encourage you to consider ways you can reduce your waste stream in your own lives. Consider bringing your own mug when you grab a coffee (and save $.25), and carry your own water bottle instead of purchasing plastic single-use water bottles. Read more
