Back for it’s 2nd Year and Bigger and Better than Ever!
Venture into the depths of Mt. Ashland for a night of spine-chilling thrills and supernatural encounters. Haunting on Mt. Ashland invites the brave to face their darkest fears in a haunted experience unlike any other. Explore eerie trails, as the mountain reveals its sinister secrets. Shadows lurk, whispers echo through the trees, and not everything that moves in the night is human.

Join us if you seek a heart-pounding Halloween adventure amidst the Siskiyou Summit.
Prepare for bigger scares, deeper shadows, a longer trail, unexpected twists, and a new chairlift ride of your nightmares.

There is no age limit if an adult is accompanying children, although discretion is strongly advised for children under the age of 13!

Three brand-new haunted houses (The Silver Scream, Forbidden Fortress, Slayers) anchor a full-blown festival of fear on select nights Oct 3 – Nov 1, 2025. After you claw your way out of the mazes, challenge the Carn-Evil Funhouse, brave the pitch-black Complex: Blackout, loose arrows at Zombie Archery, or cram into one of three mini escape games (Bus 666, Trap House, The Hot Seat). Midway lights stay blazing with Oaks Park thrill rides, a haunted vendor market, coffin-ride “Buried Alive,” food, bars, and roaming monsters—all covered by one grounds pass. 1,000-plus five-star reviews can’t all be wrong.

• Hours & place: 7805 SE Oaks Park Way, Portland, OR 97202—free parking right on the riverfront midway. Gates and rides open one hour before haunt time.
• Tickets: Online General Admission from $23–$40 (prices rise closer to Halloween). Add VIP, All-Access, or ride bracelets at checkout to slash waits and pack in more screams.
• Who should come: Intense scares—best for ages 12+. Event runs rain-or-shine under ample cover. Costumes welcome (no full masks/props).

Get your crew, pick a night, and lock in your spot at ScaregroundsPDX.com before Portland’s biggest haunted event sells out.

Monday October 20th 7:00 to 8:00 pm

Hood River author Kathy Watson will be at Bloomsbury Books in Ashland to read from her debut novel, Orphans of the Living. Watson will be joined in conversation by Shirleen Holt of Medford.

Watson and Holt worked together at Oregon Business magazine in the 1990s, where Watson was editor in chief and Holt was managing editor. The two will talk about how Watson adapted her mother’s family story for this novel, what is sometimes called “autofiction.” They’ll talk about how Watson created scenes in the long-ago town of Maxville, OR, in the Wallowa Mountains. They’ll discuss what it’s like to be writing and selling a novel in the chaotic world of book publishing, with nearly 2,000 new books coming out each week.

Orphans of the Living follows the Stovall family’s early 20th-century quest for home and redemption as they encounter racism, poverty and inequality across the American South and West.

The novel is a 2025 Literary Titan Book Award Gold Medalist in Fiction. Early reviews include this one from Willy Vlautin, winner of the 2025 Joyce Carol Oates Prize, and author of eight novels, including The Horse:

“Orphans is a stunning debut. Where has this writer been hiding? It’s all blood and soul and heartache and survival. A story of the powerful and the powerless. I can’t recommend it highly enough and I can’t wait to see what she does next.”

With the publication of her first novel, Orphans of the Living, Watson is returning to her first love: fiction. She lives in Hood River, where she writes, leads a chefs collective, and runs and hikes the Columbia River Gorge with Stu and Satchel, the world’s best dog.
