Put Your Business on the 2026 Skele-TOUR Map!

Turn spooky season into an opportunity to bring more people through your doors! The 2026 Skele-TOUR invites local businesses to rent a five-foot skeleton—Tim or Tammy Ticklebones—and create a fun, one-of-a-kind display at their business throughout October. Decorate it, pose it, give it a personality, and make your business a must-see stop on this community-wide Halloween experience.

Every participating business that purchases a skeleton will be added to the official interactive Skele-TOUR map, highlighting both the business and its skeleton display. The community will be encouraged to use the map to discover participating businesses, plan their Skele-TOUR, and visit displays throughout the month.

Beyond bringing new energy and foot traffic downtown, participation supports Minden Main Street, with fundraiser proceeds going toward the purchase of hanging flower baskets for the Main Street district.
