The newly reopened Sunshine Coast Museum has announced the terrifying return of their popular All Hallows’ Eve event on Oct. 31 from 4 to 8 p.m. Every Halloween, the museum transforms into a haunted house with spooky fun for the whole family – and this year promises to be the best yet.
New this year, Driftwood Players Theatre will offer Haunted Lantern Tours, a 45-minute walk through Lower Gibsons with gruesome ghouls and ghosts. The tour will feature a ghastly George Gibson, demented Dr. Inglistein and other horrifying terrors from the past.
The tour starts at the museum where there will be spooky old-fashioned Halloween crafts for younger children, terrifying treats and a haunted house experience on the main floor. Make a homemade lantern at the craft table (or borrow a pre-made lantern) to light your way on the tour. Explore the museum’s haunted exhibits, and make sure to visit the creepy doll collection on display.
The lantern tours end at the Gibsons Visitor Centre, right next door to the Gibsons Public Art Gallery, which will be open to offer hot chocolate and treats to rest your weary soul.
Also make sure to drop in to the spooky Arts Building on your Halloween crawl as they will be offering spooky surprises throughout the evening.
All Hallows’ Eve in Lower Gibsons is not to be missed, so put on your best costume and help us haunt in Halloween 2016 with this great coastal event.
Admission by donation. For more information, call 604-886-8232.
