Halloween and animal lovers unite: starting today, ZooAmerica North American Wildlife Park will open its once-a-year-experience where visitors can get to know its nocturnal animals as part of Hersheypark's Halloween thrills.
Guests are encouraged to bring a flashlight to get a close look at the outdoor habitats. The Halloween-themed event will also include animal enrichments, unique displays and activities like decorating a luminary and participating in a scavenger hunt.
Visitors to the zoo will be able to explore the nighttime habits of the nocturnal North American animals from 6-9 p.m. each day of the weekend.
Creatures Of The Night kicks off on Friday the 13th and runs for three weekends: Oct. 13-15, 20-22 and 27-29. These are also the last three weekends of Hersheypark Halloween and Dark Nights.
Admission is included in the one-price admission to Hersheypark Halloween only when accessing the Zoo from the bridge inside Hersheypark during posted Park hours. Separate admission, starting at $13 plus taxes and fees, is also available online or at the ZooAmerica admissions building for guests who plan to attend just Creatures Of The Night.
