Halloween Phantasmagoria 2026

Phantasmagoria, noun: a bizarre or fantastic combination, collection or assemblage; a dreamlike state where real and imagined elements blur together; a magical event at Duke Homestead on October 30.

You are invited to wander the property to see what wonders you can find. We won’t spoil the surprises, but we can tell you that this will be unlike any other Halloween experience you will have.

Did you come in past years? Come again! We have new encounters for you to experience.

No experiences are designed to scare, but some may not be appropriate for young children. Some content may be distressing to visitors and will have warning signs before encountering. Please feel free to call us with any questions about this! Participation will require moving and standing on uneven terrain. Dress appropriately for the weather, as the event is primarily outdoors. Bring your own flashlight!

The event will close at 9:30 pm, so we recommend arriving by 8:30 pm. Rain or shine.

Tickets: $15 (Plus taxes and Eventbrite fees; Kids 3 & under free)

Tickets purchased in advance will be for a specific entrance time. Once you have checked in, you are welcome to stay as long as you like. Please do not arrive before your ticket time. There will still be tickets available at the door, even if online times are sold out!

We are unable to offer refunds on purchased tickets. All cancelled tickets will be considered a donation to the site and will be used for future educational programming.
