Costumes & Candlelight: Self-Guided Tours After Dark

When the sun goes down, the Museum feels like another world. Explore the shadowed halls and candlelit Courtyard, where ancient Roman sarcophagi stand among 15th-century French storefronts and centuries-old stonework. Search for hidden ravens, wander through rooms filled with medieval and Renaissance treasures, and let the flickering candlelight transform the Museum into the perfect setting for Halloween. Come in costume. Bring your camera. And prepare to see the Museum in a whole new light. Or perhaps, in this case, a whole new darkness. Guests should plan at least 60 minutes to explore the grounds and galleries of this historic museum. This event is expected to sell out. We strongly encourage carpooling with friends or using a ride-share service. At nearly a century, the museum and castle grounds are not handicapped accessible. This program is not intended for those under 13 years of age. We recommend arriving 10 minutes early to allow enough time for the walk from the parking lot down to the museum, then for the check-in process. Unfortunately, we are unable to accommodate late arrivals. If you miss the start of your timed session, you will not be admitted at another time. Please note: all ticket sales are final, refunds are not offered, and exchanges for other tour times are not permitted. Heavy traffic should be considered when planning your travel time. Hammond Castle Museum member discounts apply! All proceeds from this program will support the restoration and preservation of the museum. - Timed entrances every 15 minutes - 6-9 pm - Advanced reservations strongly encouraged.
