Experience A Unique Horror Show At The Cradle Of Aviation

The museum will be transformed, and guests will participate in a "5D" horror experience.

This Saturday, the Cradle of Aviation Museum in Garden City is hosting a unique Halloween event, dubbed a 5D Horror Show, and you can still get tickets.

Retro Souls Entertainment LLC has teamed up with the Cradle Of Aviation to produce this unique horror event. The 100,000-square-foot museum will be transformed into a government facility where the event's main villain, The Doctor, is performing unusual experiments on anyone unlucky enough to secure a ticket to this experience.

"There are so many devoted horror fans in the world, including myself, that we wanted to create an event and experience that would really take your typical haunted house to the next level," said Robert Frankenberg, one of the events co-creators.

Guests will experience being quarantined, patted down and thrown into a laboratory where the monsters have taken over. They will bear witness to a show that is completely dedicated to the gore and humor of 80's horror movies. The show is hosted inside the museum's 300-seat Dome Theater complete. \

After the show, guests will have full access to the Cradle of Aviation's 80's arcade exhibit, where they can play free arcade games until midnight. There will be a few horror games added for the night, as well. There is also a cash bar for people to get a drink.
