  "TRUNK OR TREAT" AT THE AACA MUSEUM IN HERSHEY
Saturday, October 27 from 12 - 3PM
Trunk or Treat 
Hershey, PA (October 2, 2012). Pirates and witches and ghosts ... Oh My! Halloween fun is coming to the Antique Automobile Club of America (AACA) Museum in Hershey. Kids 12 and under are invited to participate in the annual "Truck or Treat" program for just $5 per person on October 27th.

Dress in your favorite Halloween costume and enjoy "TERRORibly" fun activities throughout two levels of the Museum. First stop: kids will create and decorate their very own Halloween bag to gather spooky sweet treats at each station. After the "Trunk or Treaters" have filled their Halloween sack with goodies provided by our generous sponsor: The Hershey Company, they will be able to engage in a Halloween movie at the Museum's 50's themed drive-in theatre and view the 1924 wooden bodied REO Funeral Hearse on display.

Parents of "Trunk or Treaters" can also enjoy the Museum's display of special cars:

* The one-of-a-kind 1955 Flajole Forerunner donating by Classic Cars. This forerunner incorporates many futuristic design elements that came well before any of items were put on a production car.
* The ever popular 1977 Cadillac Seville owned by Betty White. The Seamist Green Cadillac was featured on "Mama's Family" and was owned by the Emmy® winning actress for 25 years.

* The Lakeland bus that was used in the Academy Award® winning movie "Forrest Gump".
AACA Museum is a great place to bring the family to celebrate All Hallows' Eve in a safe and wickedly fun environment. With car scenes from the 1900's to the 1970's kids and parents alike will enjoy all of the Halloween fun at the Museum while exploring the history and fun of the car collecting hobby.

Special note: We are asking all miniature ghosts, goblins, pirates and more to leave any sharp or pointed costume accessories at home so as not to injure other guests or Museum vehicles.
