Bucksport has always been a little creepy, what with the witch's foot that keeps appearing on Col. John Buck's tombstone — no amount of scrubbing can keep it down. But this weekend's Ghostport celebration and Fright at the Fort (also next weekend) it will be downright spooktacular. If you'd like to do the Monster Mash, take part in a night parade or a tour of Bucksport's favorite haunts, you've come to the fright place.
Where: Throughout downtown Bucksport
When: see Web site for specific times.

Where: Bangor Opera House, 131 Main St., Bangor
When: 10 a.m.-2 p.m. Saturday
