Science of Scary 2026

Save the date! 

Saturday October 24

Some things in nature are simply scary. Coming across a snake in the wild is going to get your heart racing every time!

Spiders, snakes and poisonous plants are just some of the scarier parts of nature that can give us the creeps. Just because something seems scary, however, doesn't mean that it is harmful.

Please note: Family-friendly Halloween costumes are welcomed! 

Science of Scary will take place at Temple University Ambler, 580 Meetinghouse Road, Ambler, PA 19002. Visit here for directions.
