Though the pandemic has put a nail in the coffin of certain Halloween festivities, others are still very much alive and well.
Tourism Harrison recently announced the Agassiz-Harrison Museum is hosting “Spooky History,” running until Halloween Wednesday to Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
This especially macabre yet family-friendly display showcases steampunk and “Mad Max” gear, plague doctor masks, a haunted parlour and much more. A scary selfie station is available for use for a $2 donation.
