The museum bills it as a Halloween experience for all ages, so it works for school-age children who want something more theatrical than a haunted house. It runs 5 to 9 pm on October 30; the page prints no ticket prices. ## Similar picks coming up in Nashville - [Historic Rock Castle](https://grassyknees.com/nashville/activities/historic-rock-castle--listing-4b6edc1747616147625d9fe9) — Tours April through mid-December: Tuesday–Friday 10 am, 11:30 am, 1:30 pm and 3 pm… · Historic Rock Castle, Hendersonville · checked Oct 24.
