Join the Filson Historical Society for a haunting storytelling
event at Oxmoor Farm. Participants will enjoy stories
by the bonfire (weather permitting), evoking the spooky atmosphere surrounding
All Hallow’s Eve, and will need to provide their own chairs, flashlight, and refreshments. This program
will be held outdoors, so please dress for the weather and bring a blanket.
