This year they’re taking the event OUTSIDE! It’s open to all ages, and this event is free to the public but donations are always accepted and appreciated.

They’ll have  spook-tacular activities!

Here’s the Great Plains Nature Center’s description of this year’s Howl-loween event:

“Grab your lawn chairs, blankets, and snacks, hop on your flying broomstick (or a vehicle) and zip off to the nature center for an exclusive screening of GPNC’s very own spooky movie – The Kansas Insect Massacre. We’ll follow it up with a showing of the classic Halloween favorite: Frankenstein.

This movie is appropriate for all ages and highlights parasites of the natural world in a fun way.”
Remember to bring lawn chairs, blankets, and other warm items as it may be chilly. Great Plains Nature Center asks that you leave plenty of space between you and other participants.
