Ventura County, CA - The treats will be endless and the tricks will be unforgettable. Don’t close your eyes for a second or you might miss it. Naval Base Ventura County (NBVC) Port Hueneme is opening its doors to its 3rd annual Haunted Swamp. The event is open to the general public on Friday, Oct. 29 and Saturday, Oct. 30. There are early, less scary tours for smaller children from 4-6 p.m. with scary tours after dark from 7-10 p.m. There is free admission for active duty and dependents (ID required). Children 6 years and under are free. Cost is $5 for early hour tours and $8 for the scary tours. Guests should enter the base at the Pleasant Valley Gate, where free shuttle vans will transport guests to and from the Haunted Swamp. Visitors will walk into the swamp, passing graveyards and zombies along the way, and head toward a boat dock.. They’ll pile into boats that divers from the Underwater Construction Team 2 will then drag through the pool while the passengers take in the fog, camouflage and perhaps a surprise or two. They’ll disembark and make their way through a maze, cave, rain room and forest before heading into the Warfield Gym for a carnival with candy, food and games.
