Trick-or-Treat and Mansion Entry 2026

On Saturday, October 17th, and Sunday, October 18th, join us for a special family weekend of trick-or-treating. Trick-or-treating will take place on the grounds of Lyndhurst this year. Wear your Halloween costume and hunt for candy at special stops throughout the historic landscape. Please bring your own treat bag.

This ticket includes entry into the Historic Mansion as well as Trick-or-Treating throughout the landscape. 

If you would like to visit inside the mansion as well as the grounds, this 'Roam on Your Own' weekend is one of our most popular events! Lyndhurst welcomes visitors to explore the wonders of this Gilded Age mansion on their own during the festive Autumn season! Timed entry allows guests to take in seasonal and spirited decorations on their own while strolling through this breathtaking historic home.

This is not a guided tour. Lyndhurst Tour guides will be stationed throughout the house to answer questions.

Geordanes will be on-site to provide food & snacks for purchase.

Last entry into the mansion will be at 3 pm on October 17th and 4pm on October 18th.
