PRESS RELEASE
October 3rd, 2012
For Immediate Release


Join us for a spooky All Hallows Eve event taking place at the Sunshine Coast Museum and Archives on October 31st. 



The SCMA is working in collaboration with the Driftwood Players Story Theatre to bring you this unique community event. Whether you are motivated by a creepy tour through our haunted exhibits or prefer fun and gentle traditional games and crafts, there is something for everyone. 



On the first floor there will be activity stations where you can dabble in fortune telling, decorate a pumpkin, make a spooky terrarium or lantern, and more. Discover why we carve scary faces out of pumpkins and why we ‘trick or treat’. For those who are slightly more daring, you can take a tour through the darkened halls of our haunted exhibits on the second floor, lead by one of our historical characters. Story Theatre will entertain you with eerie stories from the past. 



Guided tours will take place at 3:30, 4:30 and 6:00. Admission is by donation. Be sure to dress up in a scary or creative costume. There will be a prize for the best children’s Halloween costume. And just for traditions sake we’ve got some treats to hand out too! Come and join us for the best Halloween ever!
