There's a chill wind swirling down Franklin Street. On the UNC campus, a cascade of gold and red leaves hides the sidewalk. A murmur of voices whispers through the trees. And near the planetarium, excitement reaches a fever peak.

It must be Halloween!

Celebrate the season with a special fulldome star show at Morehead Planetarium and Science Center.
