The only Halloween party in Salem thrown by her most famous son!
Nathaniel Hawthorne invites you to his Halloween Bash. Celebrate the spooky season in the gardens of The House of the Seven Gables. Interact with Mr. Hawthorne and his famous characters including Holgrave, the daguerreotypist; Mistress Hibbins, the fortune teller; and Feathertop, the scarecrow. Dance the night away to Doctor Gasp and The Eeks’ songs of Halloween oozing with vampires and ghastly creeps. There will be a cash bar, stationed hors d’ oeuvres with a mac and cheese bar, photo booth, and great people-watching among other surprises. This is a costume party, join in on the fun and dress up in your Halloween best!
Proceeds of the event benefit the re-imagining of the Nathaniel Hawthorne Birthplace. Tickets are $160 for Gables members; $175 for Salem residents; and $200 for non-Salem residents.
