Austin Peay’s annual G.H.O.S.T. event moves back to campus center

(Oct. 21, 2019)

G.H.O.S.T. – aka Greater Halloween Options for Safe Trick-or-Treating – is moving back to the middle of campus this year, relocating from Fortera Stadium to the Morgan University Center Plaza (and throughout campus).

This year’s trick-or-treating event – which is free and open to the public – is 4-7 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 27.

APSU clubs and organizations – as well as groups from the community – dress up, hand out candy and play games with children from Clarksville and the surrounding area.

G.H.O.S.T. is sponsored by APSU’s Student Government Association and is an Austin Peay tradition that used to be at the center of campus.
