From: A Festival of Oddities

Mid-Michigan’s favorite oddities festival is presented by Scream Queen Productions and The Courthouse Square Association. Admission to the grounds is free for all ages. Admission to the historic Courthouse Square Museum is $5/person. Come be a part of the spooky festival with heart!

Our Macabre Marketplace features over 100 of the state’s most talented artists and makers. Hit up Food Truck Row for a wide variety of delicious cuisine from all over The Mitten. Stop by our macabre-themed photo booth and take home a one-of-a-kind souvenir. Have your caricature drawn or get your face painted. Visit the Kitten Tent and rescue a new furry family member. Peruse the Living Library, which features the best paranormal, true crime, and horror authors in the state. Buy autographed copies of their books and chat with them one-on-one. Keep an eye out for ghouls and goblins roaming the grounds.

Inside the museum, explore oddities from Around the Globe. Climb into the Snake Pit and rescue a scaly new friend. Attend presentations throughout the day in the historic courtroom, hosted by experts in the fields of true crime, the paranormal, and more.

Attractions:
Festival of Oddities puts a modern-day spin on the classic carnival. Instead of a petting zoo, adoptable rescue animals. Instead of a photo booth, themed mini photo sessions. Caricatures, face painting, roaming performers and cosplayers, paranormal meet and greets, and much more. Admission to the courthouse lawn is free for all ages. Admission to the museum is $5 per person, per day and includes all indoor activities.
