Experience a new event for adults, ages 21+, at Heard Natural Science Museum & Wildlife Sanctuary in McKinney, Fright at the Museum! It’s set to take place on the day before our annual, always sold-out, family-friendly “Halloween at the Heard” event. This is your chance to enjoy Heard Halloween fun with a grown-up twist. Guests will enjoy the cult classic, Shaun of the Dead (“A romantic comedy. With zombies.”), in the Heard’s amphitheater under the stars, a mini trick-or-treat trail (along our Dinosaurs Live trail) before the movie, a haunted forest (available after the movie), a costume contest (details online), and more! Food will also be available for purchase. Each event ticket includes (2) two complimentary refreshing beverages, including a selection from Tupps Beer, wine, soda, or water. Tickets are limited so be sure to reserve yours now.
$39 per person (ages 21+ only). Heard Members save $5 per ticket!
