Ghostly Gala & Theater Show at Long Island Children's Museum

The Long Island Children's Museum will be open after hours for a Halloween party with trick-or-treating, a Monster Mash dance party, and Halloween crafts. Families can also see Uncle Vlad's Pumpkin Patch: The Vladuation, a funny theater show about a young bat taking his final tests at Boo-niversity. The museum makes sure the celebration is spooky but not scary.
