The DeMoulin Museum in Greenville, known for its tricks, has a full weekend of Halloween activities planned for later this month.

The annual Chili and Soup Supper is Friday, October 27 from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m.  The menu includes chili, vegetable soup, and potato soup, with a hot dog, dessert and drink.  Cost is $8 for adults, $4 for children 5 to 12, with those under 5 eating for free.  Carryouts and indoor dining will be available.

On Saturday, October 28, the DeMoulin Museum is hosting Escape from the Museum, an escape room for teams of up to 8 people.  Teams will have one hour to solve clues to escape from the fraternal lodge side of the museum.  Cost is $100 per team.  A 10:00 p.m. slot still remains.  If there is interest, the museum will add 5:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. slots on Sunday, October 29.  For more information about Escape from the Museum, call the museum at 618-664-4115.

The tradition of showing classic movies returns to the DeMoulin Museum on Sunday, October 29 with Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein being the spotlighted film.  This year marks the 75th anniversary of this comedy classic.  As an added attraction, Chris Costello, daughter of the late Lou Costello, will do a Q & A session via Zoom beginning at 1:30 p.m.  The movie will begin immediately after.  The movie and refreshments are offered free of charge. 

The museum will be decorated throughout the month for Halloween in a fun, spooky motif.  Regular hours are Saturdays from 10:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m.  Special tours for groups of 6 or more may be arranged for anytime by calling 618-664-4115 or emailing [email protected]
