What it’s like

The Children's Museum Guild's 62nd annual haunted house is themed Fright Academy this year. During Friendly Hours the lights stay on and nothing jumps out, so little ones can do it without tears. Evening Frightening Hours are a different show: skip those with kids who scare easily. Closed Mondays.

Things to do

  • Walk Fright Academy during Friendly Hours
  • Make a day of the museum (separate admission)
