The time of the ticket you purchase is the time your trolley ride departs from the Visitors Center, but please be encouraged to arrive early or stay later to enjoy the activities below and our outdoor campus. The museum is open from 9:30AM-4:30PM.
Trick or Treat! Several candy stations will be set up across the museum’s mostly outdoor campus for guests of all ages to enjoy. Yes, adults can trick or treat too!
Come in Costume! Guests of all ages in costume will receive an additional bag of treats before you board your trolley ride. A social media costume contest will also take place following each event day for those who would like to enter.
Ghost Hunt! All guests will have the opportunity to search for lollipop ghosts hidden around the Museum. Lucky guests who find a ghost will be entered into a raffle for a free family membership for the 2025 season! Ghosts will be replenished throughout the event to ensure guests visiting at any time have the opportunity to play.
Photo Scavenger Hunt! A popular Seashore activity is back for a new round of items to search for. Post your photos on the museum’s social media pages for your chance to win a free family membership for the 2025 season.
Unlimited Trolley Rides! Hop on as many trolley rides as you would like during your visit and tour the heritage railway. The last trolley departs at 3:45PM each day.
Pump Car Rides (Sunday, October 27): The Pump Car will also be available for rides this day, weather permitting. You have seen them in cartoons and old movies. Perhaps imagined yourself working the see-saw motion of that handle. Well, now you can as you operate our vintage pump car. Pull it up… push it down… and make the wheels go ’round and ’round. You will ride along under the watchful eye of one of our qualified operators on a dedicated section of track.
