A walk through a Park

Halloween is this Wednesday, so earlier today I decided to take a walk through the supposed haunted park, Galster Park located at 1620 Aroma Ave. West Covina, CA. 91791. I went during the day so it did not seem as scary but still gave me the creeps because it is a wildlife reserve meaning there are animals there that can attack. The trees also make the walking trails shady and feel as if one is walking through the woods. This feeling is unexpected because the park is in the suburbs, only about 3 to 5 minutes away from a shopping center and the main roads.

This park is found in West Covina on the San Jose hills. The park is 42 acres but the trails only go for about a 30 minute walk including a big incline, overlooking the entire westside of the San Gabriel Valley.



The people I encountered walking were people doing their morning workouts. They were mostly older people and about half of them were walking with their dogs. Alongside the trails there were small plaques with information about the types of trees and vegetation encircling the park. Near the top of the park there is an empty run down building covered in graffiti. The park closes at sunset but only a fence acts as the boundary. Since there isnt much light in the park at night it makes it easier for one to sneak in and probably the cause for the graffiti.

Here is a link to one of the many sites of ghost siting s that happened at the park.
