Spirits of Halloweens Past

The DiMenna Children's History Museum hosts a back-in-time Halloween party where budding history buffs can listen to ghost stories from the Gilded Age, hear their fates from a fortune teller, taste old-timey candy and meet Abraham Lincoln and Frederick Douglass. Kids are encouraged to vote online to help choose the figures' costumes and, of course, dress up as their own favorite historical character. Ages 6 and up.
