The State Museum’s annual ghost story festival is back for its eleventh year and promises to be more entertaining than ever! Haunted Museum takes place on Saturday, October 22, from noon to 4 p.m. (An extra hour has been added to this year’s event.)

The event is free to the public, and will feature a “ghost trail” through the museum with prizes, crafts, and refreshments.

At stops along the ghost trail there will be chilling ghost stories from Tennessee’s past, including those of the Bell Witch, the Cherokee spirit Spearfinger, John Murrell’s thumb and many other scary tales. And new this year — “The Legend of Davy Crockett.” The trail ends at the Tall Tales stage where professional storytellers will tell stories about Tennessee.

A popular stop along the trail is on the mezzanine which houses the museum’s 3,500-year-old mummy, along with the mummified cat which might have accompanied the mummy into the after-life.

Children who complete each stop of the ghost trail will receive prizes. Those attending the Haunted Museum event are invited to wear costumes and enjoy complimentary refreshments.
