Ghost Town Alive! Returns, along with New Live Entertainment, Music, and More this Summer
Buena Park, Calif (May, 2017) Starting May 27th through September 4th, Ghost Town Alive! returns to Knott’s Berry Farm for another action-packed summer complete with bandits, cowboys, robberies, judges, a good ol’ western hoedown, and much more!
