The nights are drawing in and the Nautical Nasties are taking over the National Maritime Museum Cornwall this October half term.
The Haunted Bookshop: Nautical Nasties A spooky storytelling show for the whole family, produced in collaboration with Coppice Theatre. Meet Mr Squelch, who’s gathered his terrible tales from sailors, ghosts and the briny deep itself. Expect sea-monster sightings, creepy puppetry and some highly dubious “scientific” claims.
Mon 26 – Fri 30 Oct | 11am, 1pm & 3pm
Peculiar Portrait Trail Dare to wander the Museum and hunt down the spooky portraits hidden throughout? A hands-on family trail for the brave of heart.
Sat 24 Oct – Sun 1 Nov | Daily, 10am – 5pm
Make & Take Turn ghoulish glares and spooky poses into your very own portrait in our craft sessions. Perfect for kids and families looking to make something wonderfully weird.
Sat 24 Oct – Sun 1 Nov | Daily, 12.30pm – 3.30pm (last entry 3.15pm)
All activities are included with Museum standard admission, which gives you unlimited visits for a year. Under 5s visit free.
