Halloween at Heritage House Museum

Halloween has come to Heritage House Museum. Join the festivities as the house is transformed into the deepest fears of Victorian culture – with omens, dolls, funerals and hair woven wreaths. Join the museum as it celebrates the Halloween season with a haunted house, ghost walks, escape rooms and new exhibits!

The frights will be brought to life the last two weekends of October during the Haunted House event. Visitors who dare to traverse the rooms can enjoy a complimentary hot apple cider and treats afterwards. The Haunted House will be running on October 21, 22, 28 and 29 from 7pm to 9pm. Tickets are $10 for adults and $5 for youth (18 and under). Tickets will be available at the door or pre-book your tickets by calling 613-283-6311 or email heritagehouse@smithsfalls.ca.

Also a part of our Halloween series are the Thursday night Ghost Walks. This special tour explores oral traditions and mysterious happenings of the Smiths Falls' area and the museum. The lights are dimmed and the rooms candlelit, as the tour explores the supernatural. Drop in between 7pm and 9pm to experience this event if you dare. Tickets are $10 for adults and $5 for youth (18 and under). Tickets are available at the door or pre-book your tickets by calling 613-283-6311 or email heritagehouse@smithsfalls.ca.

If you have any questions, or would like to volunteer for any of these events, please contact Maria Fournier, Program Coordinator, at (613) 283-6311, heritagehouse@smithsfalls.ca or stop by anytime leading up to these programs. The Heritage House Museum fall hours are Wednesday to Sunday. On Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays it is open from 10am to 5pm. On Thursdays from 12pm to 8pm. Stop-by for a tour and participate in our newest Escape Room. Please note the Escape Room at the museum will be closed during the Halloween events. See you at the museum!
