Join the Academy Museum's Education team in this weekend's family drop-in workshop: Creating spooky props inspired by the William Castle films screening at the museum's Family Matinees series in October: The Tingler (1959) and House on Haunted Hill (1958). Castle was best known for his eerie flicks and gimmicky PR campaigns that accompanied them. At this workshop, create props that could be a perfect fit for a haunted house or William Castle trick.
