Although the thought of the "Museum Gone Mad" may seem a little spooky, it's not really.

The Professor loves many of the things associated with this time of year - like skeletons, skulls, snakes, bats, creepy bugs, and other elements from nature, and it is his intent to thrill you and your child with special activities based on them.

Everything other than the Haunted Museum is appropriate for all family members, regardless of age.
 

However, fright and terror will abound on evenings from October 27-31, when Pennypickle's Workshop is converted into the Haunted Museum.

While Professor Pennypickle is away on one of his time-travels, his workshop has been seized by demented Dr. Adler Wissenschaft and turned into a laboratory of horror. You won't feel the least bit safe with his team of psychopaths hiding in every dark corner.

This creepy experience is guaranteed to leave you screaming for more. Tickets are $8 per person.

The Haunted Museum is recommended for teens and older. Please do not bring young children who may become frightened.

Young children are encouraged to visit our Family Night at the Haunted Museum tours on Oct. 27 and 28 between 5:30-7 p.m.

We are gearing this spine-thrilling tour for our guests 10 and under, so the little ones will get all the fun without the nightmares! Although Professor Pennypickle's house will be rather dark and lit in an eerie fashion, there will not be anything jumping out and it'll be just creepy enough to make the kids want to see it more than once. (Fair warning!)

Tickets may be purchased at the door and will be $2 per person for everyone over 2 years old.



Thursday through Saturday, October 29-31
$8 per person - Tours will be available between 7-10 p.m.

For three nights only, the esteemed Dr. Adler Wissenschaft opens his doors and cordially invites you to visit his world renowned asylum for the sick, demented, and criminally insane. However, all is not as it seems. As you travel through sinister hallways and observe sadistic neuro-experiments, you'll wonder who's more psychotic -- the patients or the staff? So join us for this thrilling and gruesome occasion... but remember... this is not for the faint of heart... nor the fragile of mind.

The Haunted Museum is not recommended for children under 13 years of age.

Tickets will be held for you at the door.
