Haunted House—50 Years of Fear
The Children’s Museum Guild invites you to travel back in time and explore 50 years of fear as Ghoulish Guide Dr. Timestein ushers visitors through 50 years of petrifying pop culture. Fasten your seatbelts as this trip showcases five “deadcades” of music, movies, television, and history through a ride in a terrifying Time Warp!
The Children’s Museum Guild Haunted House offers three unique experiences for Halloween enthusiasts:
- IPL’s Lights-On Hours ($7): recommended for visitors who scare easily.
- Defender Direct’s Frightening Hours ($7): recommended for visitors who dare to be scared.
- NEW! XTREME SCREAM Fridays ($12): recommended for super brave visitors. Xtreme Scream hours take fright to the next level through an xtreme mind/body fright experience.
Ranked among the Top 10 Haunted Houses in the nation by Rand McNally, this is The Children's Museum's biggest fundraiser of the year.
