Legends & Lanterns is a free Halloween-history festival on historic Main Street in St. Charles for guests of all ages, with character interactions (from Lizzie Borden and the Big Bad Wolf to the Queen of Hearts and Medusa), historical exhibits such as a Victorian Mourning Museum, sugar-skull makeovers at Plaza del Dia de los Muertos, scary-story writing with Edgar Allan Poe, a fiddle-playing Plague Doctor, and a self-guided video tour of Main Street's paranormal hotspots.
