Halloween Family Fun on the USS Yorktown

Event Details

Patriots Point Naval & Maritime Museum will offer spooky fun for Lowcountry families to enjoy during Halloween weekend. Visitors who come dressed in a costume Friday, October 30, through Sunday, November 1, will be offered the children's rate for admission. Guests will also have an opportunity to purchase daytime ghost tours of the USS Yorktown and Halloween inspired visitor photos.

Visitors will also be invited to compete in the museum's very first touchless-costume contest. There will be an area aboard the historic aircraft carrier USS Yorktown where contest participants will have their photo taken. The images must be uploaded to Instagram, where the museum will collect the photos for a fan vote. The winner of the contest will be given a prize pack containing two year-long passes and Yorktown apparel. Toy and replica firearms will not be allowed inside the museum.

On Friday, Oct. 30 and Saturday, Oct. 31, Bulldog Tours will offer what are usually nighttime ghost tours of the USS Yorktown during the day. The tour includes stories of American Heroes who lived, died and are still rumored to be aboard the aircraft carrier today.

Nighttime ghost tours and overnight paranormal investigations will also be available to purchase.
