About this event
In Partnership with Lauren Seeley and Death Project Manager , We are pleased to announce that this year, we are official partners of TalkDeath’s 6th Annual 2026 Halloween Cemetery Scavenger Hunt. Taking place every Halloween weekend, TalkDeath’s Cemetery Scavenger Hunt is an annual event designed to bring together communities, families, cemetery lovers, and history enthusiasts. TalkDeath DFFs (Death Friends Forever) are encouraged to visit their local cemeteries and search for monuments, headstones, and symbols that match the provided clues shared on Instagram and TalkDeath.com . Price: Free. In-Person Event (see details below) Participants have fun while learning about the history of their local cemetery, significant figures, and the art and architecture of different graves and eras. The first three parties to find all of the clues win prizes donated by artisans, craft makers, collectives, and more! We recommend arriving at the Cemetery, near the Main Entrance on Fifth Avenue and 25th Street, no later than 2:15pm to ensure you're present once the clues are announced. The winners will be announced at 4:15pm! For further instructions, more information, and how to receive clues for the hunt, visit their site here .
