Costume Studio Preparing for Halloween in Greenfield Village, October 2005

Summary

Visitors have celebrated Hallowe'en in Greenfield Village since 1981. The family-friendly program has evolved over the years, and guests continue to return each October, ready to see hundreds of candle-lit pumpkins or their favorite fairytale or storybook characters. By the early 2000s, The Henry Ford's Costume Studio designed spectacular, fantastical, and sometimes spooky costumes for the staff and volunteers who entertained guests.
