A family Halloween adventure

The ghosts will be in full ghoulish make-up and costume, which some visitors may find scary, and some parts of the experience feature sound effects. Children must accompany their adults at all times, in case things get a little spooky.

Please remember to treat the ghosts with respect. Be kind to them and allow them to haunt in peace.
