East Haven, CT: Halloween’s most unique encounter takes place in East Haven, CT aboard a historic trolley with “ALIEN INVASION: CONNECTICUT,” an all-new exclusive UFO-themed "OUT-OF-THIS-WORLD" experience.
This planet has been invaded by Aliens from Outer Space, who have selected three places on Earth to start their take-over: New York, Los Angeles, and East Haven, CT !
This Halloween, the Shore Line Trolley Museum presents an epic event very different from past productions. Guests will take an unforgettable ride aboard an ancient trolley with hosts who turn their evening into a journey they won’t soon forget. It’s a live adventure that includes the alien-themed interactive aspect of the evening along with the ride itself.
Limited to only 40 passengers per adventure, the family-friendly event includes a Disney-esque pre-ride audio-visual orientation and introduction to the plot, which os followed by an immersive 30-45 minute show/program combining an alien invasion, thrills, theater, Halloween themes, audience participation, music, and a heavy dose of comedy - where the guests help decide the outcome of this curated UFO adventure. The event is kid-friendly, and youngsters are often incorporated into the action.
This is like nothing ever "encountered" before. It is not an indoor or outdoor haunted attraction, it's not a hayride, and it is not a trail in the woods. There are no zombies, no clowns, no masked monsters. There are no chainsaws, loud music, or teenaged actors chasing you or screaming in your ears. And there's no waiting in line for hours! Expect fun + mystery + a lot of laughs aboard a great ride, where the only “probing” will be from a UFO investigator.
ALIEN INVASION: CONNECTICUT lands at the Shore Line Trolley Museum in East Haven for its final weekend on Friday, October 31st for 5 shows at 5PM, 6PM, 7PM, 8PM, and 9PM. Also, there are 4 shows on the final night: Saturday November 1st at 6PM, 7PM, 8PM, and 9PM.
Admission is only $29 per person in advance only. There is also a limited number of $49 V.I.P. upgrade tickets which entitle guests to first boarding - choice of priority seating aboard the Trolley - plus a free souvenir logo shirt.
