Burke Lake Park's miniature train ride will become a friendly Halloween trip with friendly ghosts stationed along the route as well as sights of kids' favorite nursery rhymes and bedtime stories coming to life.
(Most of the non-spooky "actors" will be students from Northern Virginia Community College and George Mason University).
