Geocache Description:


This cache is placed for the Haunt in Halmich XII event. All event attendees who chose to find this cache the night of the event are eligible to claim FTF status. In addition, this cache is placed in Halmich Park, a City of Warren Park; caching hours are 7am-10pm.


The cache is not at the posted coordinates.

A letterbox hybrid cache is based off of letterboxing, which predates geocaching by 150 years. In order to find most letterbox caches, you are required to start at the posted coordinates and follow along the story in the cache description which will lead you to the final container with a logbook and a stamp for you to stamp your personal notebook (again, another adaptation from letterboxing). We decided to mix things up this Haunt in Halmich with several of these letterboxes. Hope you have fun!

All nine letterboxes in Halmich Park revolve around a boy named Josh and his adventures dealing with the ghouls of Haunted Halmich Park. All the letterboxes are numbered in the title based on their location in the park - it is highly recommended to follow them in order (you don't have to start at number one) to make an efficient trip around the park.


Using your GPS, find your way to the posted coordinates to start the letterbox.

Josh continues walking in Halmich Park and comes across some familiar spooky faces sitting down - the Ghoul Crew! Even though they have found all the caches in the park, they agree to help him out on this one cache because they need to fly off to deal with some extraterrestial caches. They walked south down the path, passed a big tree surrounded by others on the left, and they eventually came across another bench where the wise ghost named Six told Josh that "if you look and see from here where a big tree once stood, there will be an opening just beyond it where the cache lays". Taking the advice of Six, Josh went past the former tree into the opening and what do you know, there was the cache.
