It's the Not-So-Haunted House that is oh-so-fun and where storybook characters come alive! Kids are invited to dress in their most "boo-tiful" Halloween costumes and have a ghoulishly good time going on a spook-tacular scavenger hunt throughout The Magic House to find trick-or-treat locations, and seeing their favorite storybook characters.
While the Not-So-Haunted House won't be scary, The Magic House' Electro-Static Generator will make your hair stand on end! Each child attending this Halloween event will receive a trick-or-treat bad and an autograph book as they enter The Magic House.
The Not-So-Haunted House will be held Fridays through Sundays, Oct. 13-15, Oct. 20-22 and Oct. 27-29, 2023, during regular hours.
At The Magic House in Kirkwood. The Not-So-Haunted House is included with regular museum admission.
