Follow us on Facebook (Rock Castle State Historic Site & Character Visits 4U) and Instagram (HistoricRockCastle &, CharacterVisits4U) for more information! We will be announcing which Villains will be attending in the weeks leading up to the event! And if you attended past years’ events, we have some wickedly fun surprises in store!
**While we encourage ALL of our guests to wear their Halloween costumes, we also know that some of you have really amazing costumes that match some of the Villains who will be haunting the Castle at this event. We respectfully ask that all guests age 13 and up who are dressed as Villains to please refrain from posing for photos with other guests and instead point them towards the Villains who have magically appeared at Rock Castle and are waiting to meet our guests. Because everyone knows there’s only ONE real Mischief Fairy, and we want to make sure to keep that magic alive! Thank you so much for your understanding!
Every villain has a story.
