ALBUQUERQUE, NM – October 16, 2013 – The New Mexico Museum of Natural History Foundation presents the “Extreme Scream Halloween Camp-In” at the New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science. This Halloween-themed sleepover begins at 5:30 p.m., Saturday, October 26 and ends at 7 a.m., Sunday, October 27.

The “Extreme Scream Halloween Camp-In” will offer a fun, exciting hands-on experience for children ages 6 through 12 years old. As the doors close and the lights dim, a Certified APS teacher and other staff members will lead campers through the museum in search of a variety of adventures and activities. In addition, Halloween movies will be shown in the Lockheed Martin DynaTheater. As the night comes to a magical close, campers can settle down beneath Stan the 12 -foot T. rex, snore with giant mammoths and saber-toothed cats in the Ice Age exhibit, or enjoy sleeping in many of the other darkened exhibit halls!
