In this episode of Local Spotlight, we sit down with Mariceli Santiago, Director of Student Life & Activities at Central Texas College, to talk about one of the most anticipated events of the season — the Fall Carnival & Haunted House.
This family-friendly campus tradition brings two nights of festive fun, community spirit, and just the right amount of fright.
👻 What to Expect
Guests can enjoy:
- Trunk-or-Treat (Friday, 6–8 p.m.)
- 🎬 A screening of Lights Out (Saturday at 9 p.m. at the Mayborn Science Theater)
