A guided night visit to the Museu Municipal de Vila Franca do Campo on São Miguel, running from 29 to 31 October 2026. The museum is walked by oil-lamp light, with eerie stories told in its darker corners. It is aimed at everyone from three-year-olds to grandparents, so expect fright at family level. The stories are told in Portuguese, which makes it better suited to local families or children who follow the language than to a visitor on a short trip.
Practical information
Municipal museum in Vila Franca do Campo, on the south coast of São Miguel. From Ponta Delgada it is a drive or a regional bus ride; check the source page for start times.
