This year, we’re offering a special event for kids to meet and mingle with Mrs. Claus. For an hour and a half, children will get to hang with Santa’s Number One helper (though she’ll tell you she does most of the work and gets none of the cookies).
Our interactive event will last approximately 90 minutes and includes hot cocoa and a special Christmas treat for each child. Kids will get to submit questions for Mrs. Claus that they’ve always wanted to ask. She’ll read stories and bestow her wisdom upon everyone.
The event begins at 1:00 on Saturday, December 2, after the North Creek Christmas Parade.
A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Johnsburg Food Pantry.
Haunted Adirondacks author Dennis Webster will show everyone the audio/visual evidence he has collected over the years of various New York State haunted buildings.
This is an interactive experience where participants can tell ghost stories, listen to ghost stories, look for our chocolate factory ghosts and enjoy FlavorWow™ treats around a campfire. Ticket price includes hot chocolate and S’Mores cups to enjoy by the fire.
We’ll talk about our experiences with the ghosts that roam our chocolate factory and you can tell us about any paranormal encounters you’ve had in the past. We’ll also tell you what different paranormal researchers have found here…and allow time for the hobbyist ghost hunter to investigate. You can walk around our property, our store, exhibit room and experience room, asking questions of your own with your EVP, Spirit Box or Dowsing Rods. We have limited equipment here for you to enjoy as well!
Our store will be open late. If you’re craving sweet treats to take home, you’ll receive a 10% discount in our store on the evening of your experience.
PLEASE NOTE: Limited slots are available, reservations and prepayment are required. No walk-ins will be accepted. A little rain won’t stop us, but severe weather will. In the event of severe weather, we will either postpone the event or move it inside without the fire. ***Once we reach the maximum number of attendants on a particular date, we will form a wait list, if we don’t reach our minimum, we will cancel and refund your money***
