Visit Wisconsin Museums and Historic Sites
Ready for frights, delights and fall nights?
Fall is fast approaching—and with it, a host of spook-tacular adventures. From the iconic Legends & Lore Halloween celebration at Old World Wisconsin to cemetery tours, phantom photography, harvest festivals, 19th-century lore and more, you’ll experience events equal parts fascinating and frightening all season long.
Want to hear a dramatic recitation of The Raven on a Poe-themed lakeside cruise? What about a cup of warm cider while taking in historic views at the Stonefield Harvest Moon Festival? Or—if you’re brave—why not try a flashlight graveyard tour featuring Lake Geneva’s dearly departed?
