Coggeshall Farm Museum will host a spooktacular Halloween celebration the next two weekends, Saturday and Sunday, Oct. 19 and 20, and Oct. 26 and 27, from 3 to 6 p.m. each day. The annual event invites families to immerse themselves in the spirit of spooky season, blending tradition and creativity against the backdrop of the museum’s historic grounds.

Visitors can explore a series of themed trick-or-treat stations, each offering a variety of unique treats. In addition to candy collecting, attendees will have the opportunity to participate in a range of hands-on activities, including carving spooky apples and turnip heads and embarking on the Hobbes the Cat mystery hunt.

New this year, the event will showcase the talents of renowned magician Bob Olsen, who is set to mesmerize audiences with his spellbinding performances throughout the evening.

Families are encouraged to embrace the Halloween spirit by dressing up in their favorite costumes. Organizers remind attendees to choose costumes that are suitable for all ages, ensuring a fun and inclusive environment for everyone.

“Halloween at Coggeshall Farm is a wonderful opportunity to bring families and friends together to celebrate the beauty of autumn while creating lasting memories. We invite everyone to join us this October for an unforgettable, magical experience,” said Shelli Costa, executive director of Coggeshall Farm Museum.
