For the second year running, All Hallows’ Eve at the
Sunshine Coast Museum & Archives was a resounding success! Outside the
museum,
Mad Scientist Matt Smith created spooky ambient soundscapes as
ghost, ghouls and goblins entered the
museum
for a night of fun and fright.
As people entered,
Vampire Susan Rule spooked visitors from her coffin in the
hallway- what a spooktacular delight!
On the main floor,
many of the younger children enjoyed a variety
of craft stations while the
Driftwood Theatre troupe led murder mystery
tours of the upstairs exhibit. Here’s a taste of the mystery:
THANK YOU to the community for participating in our

success with close to 200 visitors and generous donations at the door!

sponsors and donors. Thank you to our
GOLD LEVEL event sponsors:
SuperValu and the family of Jean Clarke (in memoriam).
