Tons to do at Britannia Mine Museum’s spine-tingling Halloween event

Climb onboard a spooky underground train, meet creepy crawly critters, make potions, and head into a witches lair (if you dare!) and more, all at Britannia Mine Museum (BMM) this coming weekend and next. The enchanting world of science returns to BMM for their 5thannual Spoo-ook-tacular Halloween event.
Enjoy two weekends of family fun – October 20th & 21st and October 27th & 28th – with special event pricing of $15 for visitors 5+ years old.
This haunting event is fun for the whole family and a scary-good opportunity to wear a costume (and yes a photo booth will at the ready to snap a pic of your little ghouls, goblins, fairies and superheroes).
