Kids and their families are invited to get dressed in their Halloween best and head to New-York Historical Society's annual afternoon of hands-on games, spooky and silly stories, historical Hallowe’en crafts, and buckets of candy!

Discover the immigrant origins of some of the most iconic fall traditions (like jack-o’-lanterns) and learn all about Día de los Muertos (the Day of the Dead, a holiday celebrated at the beginning of November in Mexico and beyond by many families).

The museum is also celebrating its special exhibition, Pets and the City, with a photo-op featuring some Halloween-inspired creepy-crawly, winged, and furry critters!
