    christadiserio said:  Instead of watching a scary movie together, opt for the real deal. This 90-minute walking tour around the Fort Worth Stockyard will leave both of you spooked after hearing stories of paranormal activity in the area, shoot-outs, hangings, etc. The ghost adventure will stop at a handful of locations, beginning with Cowtown Winery, the Cadillac Hotel, Miss Molly's B&B, and the Stockyards hotel.
