Who knew there was a website dedicated entirely to listing haunted houses, spooky walks, haunted hayrides and other Halloween events? With the scare-factor rated by readers. Aptly titled http://www.lihauntedhouses.com/

Ghostly Gala at Long Island Children’s Museum

October 21, 2007 · Leave a Comment

A very unscary Halloween for the younger set. Long Island Children’s Museum’s Ghostly Gala.

Show off your costumes, collect candy around the museum, face painting, decorate a goody bag, create a glow-in-the-dark spider and more. $7 per person, an extra $3 for the bat show, whatever that is!
