Spooktacular Events October 22-30, 2022
Celebrate Halloween all week long at The Durham Museum! We’ve got plenty of spooky good fun planned for the whole family. All activities are FREE for museum members and regular admission applies for non-members, unless otherwise noted. Get ready to explore some haunted history behind the walls of historic Union Station this October!
TOUR THE HAUNTED TRAIN!
Every day, October 22-30: The Durham’s historic train cars get a spooky twist for Halloween season! Cobwebs, skeletons, spiders and more have taken over our haunted fleet. Don’t worry … it’s not TOO scary!
THE DANCING ZOMBIES
The crowd-favorite dancing zombies are back courtesy of UNO’s The Moving Company. They’ll perform during The Great HALL-oween Haunt on Tuesday, October 25. And because zombies are so hard to scare away, they’ll be back in the afternoons during Hallo-weekend (October 29-30).
