Terms.
Effective August 10, 2026
These terms cover this website and prerelease reservation requests. Final ticket, cancellation, weather, waiver and participation terms will be presented before any guest pays.
Independent experience
Santa Cruz After Dark is an independent walking experience. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or authorized by Warner Bros., the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, the City of Santa Cruz or the filmmakers and performers associated with The Lost Boys.
Reservation requests
Submitting a founding reservation request does not create a paid booking or guarantee a departure. A booking becomes final only after dates, price and participation terms are presented and payment is accepted through the selected booking provider.
Research and intellectual property
The site distinguishes verified facts, corroborated research and fan mythology in good faith. Historical details may change as stronger sources emerge. The Santa Cruz After Dark brand, original route materials, script, diagrams and keepsake designs may not be reproduced commercially without permission. Third-party film titles and marks belong to their respective owners.
Website availability
The prerelease site is provided as available. We may revise tour details, pricing, routes, dates or these terms before public ticket sales open. California law governs these website terms.
