Celebrate Ray Harryhausen on Friday the 13th
Creatures of the Night presented by Zona Mechanical is a ticketed, after-hours event celebrating Ray Harryhausen’s legendary creatures, perfectly timed for the spooky fun of Friday the 13th.
Explore the Museum at your own pace during a self-guided flashlight experience. The Ray Harryhausen: Miniature Models of the Silver Screen exhibition remains fully illuminated, while the rest of the Museum is explored in the dark by glowing miniatures and individual flashlights. Each guest receives a flashlight to use—and keep.
This event blends classic creature-film vibes, immersive atmosphere, and discovery—perfect for couples, friends, and anyone who loves creatures, fantasy, and film history.
