OGDENSBURG — The Frederic Remington Art Museum will host Remington Haunting: A Family Event on Friday, Oct. 15 and Saturday, Oct. 16 from 6 to 8 p.m.

Ghosts and apparitions will take over the museum for two nights of scary adventure and fun. This event is sponsored by America 1 Realty. Admission is $5 per person of any age. Cash only.

For much of its nearly 100 years as a museum, the Remington has been the subject of ghost stories. One rumored story is about Madame America Vespucci, who lived here in the 1860s and 70s with the house's owner, George Parish. It is said that her heart was broken when he left her here when he inherited his title as the Count Von Seftenburg and moved to his castle in Vienna.

This year's haunted house will include guided tours of groups of 5 or less people and traffic flow one way only. The museum has a limited capacity of 50 people at one time.

There will be no physical contact by volunteers and guests. Bathrooms will not be available. All guests will be expected to comply with the New York State Department of Health mask wearing guidelines while on premises. Masks are mandatory and must be worn properly while on museum property.

The Frederic Remington Art Museum is located at 303 Washington Street, Ogdensburg, NY 13669. The Museum is dedicated to collecting, exhibiting, preserving and interpreting the art and archives of Frederic Remington, and contains an unmatched collection of his works.

The Museum is open October 15 through May 15, Wednesday through Saturday, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday, 1 to 5 p.m. and May 16 through October 14, Monday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday, 1 to 5 p.m.
