If you’re anything like us, then October in Houston screams pumpkin patches, and the start to cooler temps, and a little bit of creepy fun too! That’s right… We all love a good thrill every now and again, and this month is the perfect time to have a little bit of Halloween fun — and at what better place than with our sponsor the National Museum of Funeral History?!?
We are SO excited that NMFH is at it again this month with a FULL line-up of Halloween events and activities. Plus, they are so graciously giving Houston Moms Blog readers an exclusive offer to check out one of them for FREE! Keep reading below to learn more about all that they have coming up, and then be sure to print out the coupon and plan a visit soon…
- 4th Annual Family-Friendly Haunted House :: Yes, you read that right. This haunted house is FAMILY-friendly. Unlike some of the other attractions you might find around town, there aren’t any creepers who will chase after you with chainsaws or any other heart stopping antics. Nope. Just a classic haunted house with some thrills and chills along the way — perfect for grown-ups and kiddos too! Plus, if you’re a little bit nervous as to how your kids might react, the museum will so graciously let you do a walk through to make sure it’s something they can handle. {Hey, we all have our own limits. I’ll admit I’m a bit of a chicken myself!} Running daily now through November 2nd; Admission is generally $5 for adults and $3 for kids 11 and under, but print out the coupon below to get in for FREE!
- 8th Annual Classic Car Show :: Rescheduled due to the rainy forecast this weekend, the 8th Annual Classic Car Show is now scheduled for October 31st and will be packed with more than 100 different “dressed up” cars. Plus, they will have tons of fun for the whole family – including face painting, arts and crafts for the kids, great food including BBQ and cupcakes from local vendors, a live DJ, a silent auction, and more. Happening Saturday, October 31st from 10am – 3pm; Admission is $3 for individuals or $5 for couples and families; Note that admission to the Museum is separate and is not included.
- Dia de los Muertos Celebration :: This annual event provides insight into the customs in the Latin community in honoring those who have passed, complete with fun activities and treats for kids – such as a special story time and costumed characters. This celebration will take place on Sunday, November 1st from 12pm – 5pm.
Now about that coupon… We are so, so thankful to our generous friends at NMFH for letting you — HMB followers — into their Family-Friendly Haunted House this season for FREE both this weekend {Oct 24 – 25} and next weekend {Oct 31 – Nov 1}. All you have to do is print out the coupon below and then present it when you arrive, and the museum staff will allow up to four members of your family {two adults + two kids} to tour the haunted house at no cost. If you plan accordingly, you could combine it with some of the other fun things going on at the museum and make it a full day of family fun at a price that can’t be beat!
Please Note :: This post is graciously sponsored by our friends at the National Museum of Funeral History, and we are so thrilled to share this offer with all of you!
