What Lurks Beneath: A Halloween Experience at the Mystic Seaport

  • Mystic Seaport Museum 75 Greenmanville Avenue Mystic, CT 06355 United States (map)

Do you believe in sea monsters? This Halloween, discover “what lurks beneath” at Mystic Seaport Museum! Explore our indoor and outdoor spaces as the mysteries of the ocean come out to play. From giant puppets to incredible Kraken tentacles climbing the rigging of the whaleship, Charles W. Morgan, this limited-time event includes creepy Halloween fun for all.

Take a scary guided tour (ages 12+) to hear about mysterious creatures of the deep from the sailors that encountered them. View fascinating and unnerving marine specimens from our collection, astonishing glass invertebrates, and looming figureheads. Younger children will enjoy a fanciful spooky walking tour, creating a sea monster or mermaid craft, and engaging their imagination at the children’s mini-ship playscape. Explore the ghostly ambiance of a seaport village at night as you stroll the waterfront and check out a séance, enjoy a fireside chat with one of our storytellers, grab a take-home card front the print shop, and more. Halloween-themed food and beverages will be available at Schaefer's Spouter Tavern as you investigate the unknown and decide for yourself whether you believe in monsters of the deep!
