Dutchtown

Meeting Room AB

For one morning only, the library will be haunted! Let’s have a spine-tingling adventure!

Boos and ghouls, it’s a mourning of spooks and goblins at our Haunted Library! There will be a slime walk, sensory “guess the body part” cauldrons, photo opportunities, trick-or-treat bag decorating, and trick-or-treating around the library, among other frightfully fun activities!  Costumes are encouraged, and you can try your luck with our costume contest! Winners will be chosen for the best costume in each age group (babies and toddlers, younger children, tweens and teens, and adults).  It will be a ghoulishly good time!

AGE GROUP: | Tweens (ages 9-11) | Teens (ages 12-18) | PreK (ages 3-5) | Elementary (ages 6-8) | Baby/Toddler | All Ages | Adult (18+) |

EVENT TYPE: | Recreation & Games | Arts & Crafts |
