Have a side of "spooky" served with your history lesson at the Full Moon Cemetery Stories tours. You will meet interesting "people" on your nocturnal perambulations, as costumed actors portraying historical denizens of Northfield, Minn., stand beside the person's grave. Hear the story of Joseph Frantz and how he earned a Medal of Honor during the Civil War. Hear stories of townfolk that only a barber can know as you listen to Henry "Tel" Budd, a Northfield barber from the 19th into the 20th century. Reservations required. (5:30, 6, 6:15, 6:45, 7, 7:15, and 7:30 p.m. Sat. $4; $1 ages 5-13; $10 for families of four or more. Calvary Cemetery, 600 Spring Creek Rd., Northfield; south of E. 90th St., next to the Northfield Golf Course. 1-507-645-9268. www.northfieldhistory.org.)
