The Cotswolds offer endless activities for all ages in the run up to Halloween and Bonfire Night celebrations the following weekend, from scary attractions, and pumpkin carving to big bangs, bonfires and fireworks!
Sudeley Castle is hosting Halloween events for all ages this October. From a daytime mythical trail to nighttime spooky routes and ghost hunt tours, there’s something for everyone.
Enjoy a spellbinding adventure from 26 October to 3 November. Discover mystical medieval characters on the interactive castle trail and join the Medieval Monsters ball. Explore the haunted Ha-Ha with archaeologists and experience spooky trails with special effects. For the first time, join lantern-lit ghost tours and learn about Sudeley’s famous ghosts. Enjoy these events and the castle’s usual attractions, including Tudor history exhibitions, gardens, playground, and delicious treats.
For three special dates (27th, 29th, 31st October), the castle grounds will be transformed into a spooky trail between 3-5pm. As the afternoon light begins to disappear, smoke and spectacular special effects created by Chase Lane fireworks will bring a special atmosphere to the ancient castle grounds. Spook seekers can expect crackle and fizz, and experience Sudeley Castle as they’ve never seen it before as they are transported to a Halloween journey back in time. https://sudeleycastle.co.uk/news/get-ready-for-a-spellbinding-medieval-halloween-adventure-at-sudeley-castle-this-october
