Get ready to be seriously spooked, RaleighAdult Nights are back at the NC Museum of Natural Sciences.

Raleighites 21+ can experience Nocturnal By Nature on Fri., Oct. 28 from 7-10 p.m., and explore the uncensored side of science by:

  • Dancing beneath dinosaurs
  • Testing your crime-fighting abilities
  • Seeing rare specimens + scientific oddities

— and maybe even holding a real human brain, if you’re brave enough. Costumes encouraged. Grab your tickets.*
