Scary Halloween fun coming to Deltaville Maritime Museum

October 25, 2023

“Wanda the Witch” watches while money bestowed: Middlesex Moose Lodge 2401 President Ronn Kauffman, left, hands the check for $1,000 supporting the Oct. 31 “Scary Halloween in the Park” to Deltaville Maritime Museum and Holly Point Nature Park President Pat Rabb-Zulick. The monies were collected by the local Lodge and will go towards candy and decorations. “Wanda the Witch” will be hiding somewhere in the park, so keep an eye out. The Halloween event will be from 6:30-8:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Oct 31. The museum will be running two hay wagons this year. Hot dogs and hot chocolate will be available. (Contributed)

Yes, Halloween is on what we will for this year name “Terrible Tuesday,” and, ready or not, the goblins, ghouls, ghosties, and maybe a witch, warlock, and zombie or two are beginning to stir, moan and generally raise a ruckus in the “Wailin’ Woods” and for the hayrides in the “Field of Screams” out at Deltaville Maritime Museum’s (DMM) Maritime Park.

All the volunteers at DMM’s Annual “Scary Halloween in the Park” are turning up the “scariness” factor as our always unpredictable Halloween takes place Tuesday, Oct. 31, from 6:30-8:30 p.m. at the Maritime Park, located at 287 Jackson Creek Road. Please note new times!

There’ll be plenty of candy and levels of scariness for costumed folks (and real spooks) of all ages. Parking in our convenient lots and admission to this event are always free to the public.

Volunteers are still needed — call Kristen or Joy at the DMM office between 10 a.m.-4 p.m. Monday-Saturday or noon-4 p.m. Sunday. DMM is closed Wednesday.
