Wilton Historical Society Hosts Spooky Evening for Kids on October 19

When night settles on creaky old buildings during the scariest time of the year, you never know what you may bump into . . . !

This spooky evening for kids ages 8 – 12 will take place on Saturday, October 19, from 6:00 – 7:30 p.m.

During a candlelight walk through the dimly lit period rooms, and up and down groaning stairs of the 1740 Betts House and the 1772 Fitch House, kids will hear stories of the families who lived there. They will wend their way to the Burt Barn, where they will hear classic scary Halloween stories told in the dark. The evening will conclude with games, cider and donuts. Halloween costumes are optional.

Parents may drop their kids off, but they are invited to linger enjoy a glass of hard cider while waiting. Co-sponsored by Kiwanis.

Registration required. Members: $15 per child; maximum $30 per family. Non-members: $25 per child, maximum $50 per family. To reserve: e-mail info@wiltonhistorical.org or call 203-762-7257.
