Overview

No upcoming events found.
Get ready for a hauntingly good time at the Zoo’s 13th annual “Boo! At the Zoo” Halloween events! Join us as we transform the Zoo into a spooktacular experience like no other.
Get ready for spooky fun at our Haunted Zoo! This year, we’re extending our spooky hours to every Friday and Saturday night from September 27th to October 26th. From 7 p.m. to 9 p.m., explore the zoo with a ghostly glow as we unveil our exciting new decorations. Discover a life-sized Hansel and Gretel Gingerbread House, favorite Disney characters in costume, a bigger-than-life Snoopy, and a spooky new graveyard. Plus, classic Halloween favorites like pirates, skeletons, and witches will be there to add to the fun!
Don’t worry, though. Our event is spooky, NOT scary, making it perfect for families and kids of all ages. We’ve created a family-friendly environment where everyone can enjoy the Halloween spirit.
But that’s not all! Experience the Zoo in a whole new light, quite literally, as you explore it at night. This is your chance to witness our nocturnal animals, including Red, Silver, and Gray Foxes, a Raccoon, Coyote, Skunk, and Screech Owl, as they come alive in their habitats. Don’t miss the opportunity to meet symbolic Halloween animals like Poe the Crow, Sienna the Screech Owl, and our wake of Vultures.
And what’s Halloween without some delicious treats? We’ll provide marshmallows for roasting, adding an extra touch of sweetness to your evening.
Admission is only $6 per person, and any additional donations you make will go towards supporting and rescuing animals. By attending this event, you’re not only having a great time but also contributing to a worthy cause.
