Ghost Dinosaurs at the County Museum on Saturday

The Halloween season makes you think about spooks and goblins and, at the San Bernardino County Museum, Ghost Dinosaurs! Families are invited to Ghost Dinosaur Day on Saturday, Oct. 25, for all sorts of fossil treats—and maybe a trick or two. All activities are included with paid museum admission.

Curator of Paleontology Eric Scott will give two spooky dinosaur talks about “Ghost Dinosaurs”, one for kids at 10:30 a.m. and the other, “Ghost Dinosaurs: Haunted by Lost Monsters,” for all ages at 2 p.m. The education division will offer eerie cart conversations in the Hall of Geological Wonders, where the special exhibit “Fossils Underfoot” is now showing. Don’t be scared: learn the difference between dinosaur “ghosts” and the real thing. Get ready for Halloween by making dinosaur masks to take home. Are you already all set for Halloween? Then wear your costume, join in a costume parade, and win a prize!

Activities are scheduled from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. with costume parades at 1, 2, and 3 p.m.
