Discover what makes our hearts race, our knees shake and our bodies sweat when we are scared. “Goose Bumps! The Science of Fear” opens at Pacific Science Center on Saturday, June 11, and runs through Monday, Sept. 5.
This exhibit allows guests to discover the science behind the physical and emotional responses of fear through fun, interactive challenges. “Goose Bumps!” begins with a Fear Challenge Course, where visitors face four common fears – creepy-crawly creatures, electric shock, loud noises and falling – in a safe environment. Visitors will also meet Mr. Goose Bumps, a larger-than-life figure that illustrates, through animation, how the brain and body work together in response to danger.
Entry to the exhibit is included with the price of general admission. For more information, call 206-443-2001 or visit www.pacificsciencecenter.org.
