“Tales of the Night” at Drumlin

Mass Audubon’s Drumlin Farm Wildlife Sanctuary is once again hosting “Tales of the Night,” a special Halloween-themed celebration with tricks and treats appropriate for the whole family, on Thursday and Friday, October 23 and 24 from 6:30-9 p.m.

“Tales of the Night” activities target everyone from young toddlers to teens. “We offer fun activities that provide the thrills that older kids are looking for and a Nursery Rhyme trail for little ones on the lower end of the ‘fright-o-meter’ as well,” said Drumlin Farm Sanctuary Director Christy Foote-Smith. Visitors can enjoy a special haunted hayride, get up close to insects in the Creepy Critter Mansion, or meet their favorite storybook characters on the Nursery Rhyme Trail. Witches’ brew, spider cider, and tasty treats can be purchased and enjoyed while you peruse a display of more than 100 jack-o’-lanterns or learn about nocturnal wildlife from Drumlin Farm teacher naturalists.

Visitors are encouraged to purchase tickets in advance. Tickets are $11 per person if purchased on or before October 23. Tickets purchased on the days of the event are $13 per person and may be bought online at massaudubon.org/drumlinfarm or by calling 781-259-2206.

Trunk or Treat!

Bring young children and the whole family on Wednesday, Oct. 29 from 5-6 p.m. to “Trunk or Treat” in the roped-off parking lot behind the Brooks gym, where kids incostume can stroll safely among vans and trucks decorated in a variety of fun themes. Games and treats as well. Sponsored by the Parks and Recreation Department. For details, call 781-259-0784.
