It’s that time of the year again. Little ones don costumes and get excited about knocking on doors and begging for treats. Some enjoy have the living daylights scared out of them. Others prefer to keep the lights on. If you love all things Halloween, it’s the perfect time to visit The Children’s Museum of Indianapolis for the 51st Annual Haunted House. This year’s theme is the Creepy Carnival and it runs form October 11-31st offering both IPL’s Lights-On Hours (for people like me) and Defender’s Direct Frightening Hours for those who love to be scared. This year, on select Friday and Saturday nights, Williams Comfort Air is sponsoring XTREME SCREAM late nights on select Fridays and Saturdays (BOO!).
Tickets for the Haunted House are $6.50 for Members or $7 for Members with children under the age of 2 attending for free. The experience includes more than just screams, though. During Lights-On Hours, kids can trick-or-treat, too. So wear your costume and prepare for a great time. A slew of other events are underway at the Children’s Museum this month, too. Which reminds me, we only have a few weeks to squeeze in a visit to the world renowned Terra Cotta Warrior Exhibit!
I’d love to send a couple of thrill seekers to the Creepy Carnival at The Children’s Museum for FREE! Enter the Rafflecopter below to win two tickets.

I loved my Wilma Flintstone costume! 🙂 Of course, that year it snowed on Halloween, so everyone just saw my coat…. 🙁

I would have to say the year I was a Jack in the box. My parents put a lot of effort into the costume and I won a contest with it!

When
I was about 5, My mom dressed me up as the tooth fairy for a contest at
the old boys and girls club…. My brother, who is 5 years older than
me was my giant tooth that I led around on a leash…. He wasn’t a very
happy tooth!

My favorite was probably my smurf one because it was the only one I remember being an actual bought costume. After that I had to switch back and forth between a witch, princess, and native american each year because that is what we had to make a costume out of. haha 🙂
