Festivities will run over three days, with a range of spooky activities to thrill adults and kids alike. The Museum has worked hard to create an event that takes into account COVID safety procedures, but leaves plenty of room for fun. Admission includes a viewing of BOOM! and a spooky story after the show in Mill No. 3. Please note that the Underground train will not be a part of Halloween celebrations this year. Guests who wish to tour the Underground can do so with the purchase of a regular admission ticket.
