RALEIGH \u2014 Adults 21 and up, we\u2019ve heard your cry! Adult Nights<\/a><\/em> at the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences makes its debut with \u201cNocturnal by Nature<\/a>\u201d on Thursday, October 27 inside the Museum\u2019s Nature Research Center from 7 to 10 p.m. The Halloween-themed event is the first of many Adult Nights<\/em> at the Museum designed to bring out a mature crowd for more than just science. At \u201cNocturnal by Nature,\u201d you can dance in the 3-story SECU Daily Planet Theater, featuring music by SPIN, meet some Museum creepy-crawlies face to face, check out rarely-seen Museum specimens in the \u201cHall of Oddities,\u201d and perfect your \u201cThriller\u201d moves with the Elevate zombie dancers. Watch a creature come to life during a Gregory F\/X live makeup demo and learn how to glow in the dark with bioluminescence. You might even catch a few \u201cdead scientists\u201d roaming throughout this ghoulish get-down!<\/p>\n

Of course, what Halloween party would be complete without costumes? If your costume is wicked-scary or wicked-cool, you could win a prize. Tickets are $15, $10 for Members.\u00a0Beer, wine, cocktails and food will be available for purchase. You must be 21 years or older to attend.\u00a0A photo ID is required for entry.<\/p>\n

COSTUME AND MASK POLICY<\/strong><\/p>\n

For the safety of all visitors, we ask that guests refrain from wearing masks or other items that obscure their face. Costumes should not contain any elements that resemble, or could easily be mistaken for, an actual weapon. The Museum reserves the right to turn away any guest with a costume that we deem offensive or unsafe.<\/p>\n
