Guests are encouraged to come in costume. Activities include frightful face painting, UV bead bracelets, a haunted photo booth, creepy crafts, a witch's brew mocktail, touch-and-feel boxes and free books to take home.

New this year is the Carnegie Crypt Escape Room, where guests puzzle their way through a Victorian-era mystery before time runs out. There is also a scary walk-through of the Carnegie halls, with jump scares optional, and ghost stories in the mezzanine.
