For over 60 years, the Oshawa Museum (OM) has celebrated our City’s history with engaging events, inspiring exhibits, and an immense collection of archival materials. Nestled on the shores of Lake Ontario in beautiful Lakeview Park, the OM tells the story of Oshawa from Indigenous inhabitants to present day. Home to Oshawa’s history, the OM is managed by the Oshawa Historical Society.

Discover displays of local coffin hardware, peculiar and unsettling artefacts from the museum’s collection, and hear chilling staff tales of paranormal encounters. Don’t miss the infamous “killer dresses” on display in this 200-year-old home.
Spooky Science in the Drive Shed: Discover what bats, snakes, and spiders “see” in the Drive Shed, with an interactive science display from Derek Cutting and art by Dani Crosby.
Family Fun in Guy House: Perfect for all ages—build Lego monsters in five minutes, join interactive activities, and get your face painted for a frightfully fun look! Warm up with a cozy cup of hot chocolate as you celebrate the season with family and friends.
