It's a spooktacular movie night aboard the USS Hornet Museum! This event is perfect for kids and adults of all ages who love science, technology, and a little bit of spooky fun. 

Families can enjoy a unique ghost-hunting experience using advanced technology and your own scientific skills.  Use our state-of-the-art Ozobots to hunt down and catch the “mean” ghosts.  Trapping the bad ghosts in your own miniaturized ghost containment unit using a bell jar and scientific principles, you can learn about the properties of depressurization and as you attempt to shrink the mischievous ghosts.

After the movie, there is an option to purchase a 30-minute flashlight tour of the 3rd deck.  A flashlight tour of an aircraft carrier is a truly unique experience, offering a glimpse into the ship’s history and the lives of those who served on board. It’s a chance to explore the vessel in a new and exciting way, and to appreciate the vessel’s grandeur and complexity in a whole new light.

The STEM lesson starts at 4:00 pm.  The family-friendly movie, “Casper,” begins at 4:30 pm.  Snacks and drinks will be available for purchase. No outside food is allowed and all ages are welcome.

Free admission for Museum Members.  Flashlight tours are not included.

Admission to the museum includes access to STEM activities and movie screening as part of the standard daytime ticket. Please note that flashlight tours are not included in this admission.
