Halloween at the American Museum & Gardens

An after-dark Halloween experience transforming the gardens and candlelit Manor House rooms with lighting, projections and spooky surprises.

For the first time, the museum's autumnal gardens are transformed for a spooktacular after-dark Halloween experience, running from 16 October to 1 November with timed entry slots from 5.30pm to 8.30pm. Visitors follow a self-led, atmospheric route through the grounds with imaginative lighting, projections, eerie scenes, sound effects and playful characters, and can also join a candlelit view of selected rooms in the historic Manor House at no extra charge. The experience takes around 60 minutes and is designed to be eerie and playful rather than terrifying, with seasonal American-inspired food and drink available from the American Garden Deli. Children under 16 must be accompanied by an adult.
