Fright at the Museum

Is there a more appropriate way to spend Halloween than amongst hundreds of freakish dead specimens? We think not. This October, the Natural History Museum will be keeping its doors open after hours for an adults-only fright night. There’ll be a live band, a silent disco and a vampire ball as well as scientists dotted about the place to chat you through the beasts on display, and a chance to get up close to the museum’s ghoulish collection of jarred pickled creatures.
