Nature Knowledge Night: Natures Not So Scary Animals , $4 per child
This after-school program at Connetquot River introduces kids to the animals that get a bad rap around Halloween—think bats, snakes, and spiders. Rangers lead hands-on learning sessions that show why these creatures are more helpful than scary. Park entrance is off Sunrise Highway with ample parking; arrive early since spots fill up fast on Friday evenings.

Hunt for Bigfoot 2: Electric Boogaloo, Adult Program, $4 upon arrival
Yes, this is a tongue-in-cheek cryptozoology hike on Halloween morning, and yes, they're actually calling it Electric Boogaloo. Expect spooky woods, questionable "evidence," and naturalists having way too much fun with the concept. It's $4 cash and genuinely entertaining if you're into camp.
