An Eerie Evening at the Tampa Bay Hotel

  • When: Friday, October 30, 2026,  6:00 pm -  9:00 pm
  • Location: Henry Plant Museum, 401 W Kennedy Blvd, Tampa, FL 33606
  • Cost: $20/Members, $25/Non-Members

Step inside the moonlit halls of a Gilded Age hotel as the Henry B. Plant Museum brings Victorian era Halloween traditions to life. You will be welcomed by the spirit of a local undertaker. View the late 19th century horror movie Dracula, and comb through exhibit rooms to discover hidden clues and decode a monstrously wicked mystery.

Macabre items from the Museum’s permanent collection as well as Ybor’s Dysfunctional Grace are scattered throughout the Museum. The Cabinet of Curiosities and hall cases are a must see featuring peculiarities such as mourning jewelry and wreaths made from human hair.

See the hotel suite that once served as the office of Dr. G.H. Altree, who helped establish the historic Centro Asturiano Sanitarium. This year’s experience transports visitors into an era when medicine was a dark mystery and deadly plagues like tuberculosis and influenza ruled the city.

This event is intended for visitors age 14 and older.
