Ghouls and Goblins Visit Greenfield Village for Halloween Weekends

Tickets for Hallowe'en in Greenfield Village are on sale now.

Superheroes, princesses and even the ghost of Henry Ford showed up in full force Friday for Hallowe’en in Greenfield Village.

Unlike most Halloween celebrations, Hallowe’en in Greenfield Village is modeled after the holiday as it was celebrated during the first half of the 20th century and is fun for both kids and adults of all ages.

The village transforms into enchanting paths lined with 1,000 hand-carved jack-o’-lanterns and occupied by characters adorned in elaborate costumes inspired by the Hallowe’en party pamphlets of the early 1900s.
