Brought to you by the producers of Christmas at Kew, this brand-new, after-dark Halloween trail is filled with so many hidden surprises.

Join family and friends to wander from dusk into darkness between one ghostly space to another. Watch out for flickering flames in a fiendish fire garden, daring fire artists and grinning pumpkins aglow. Wind your way through the illuminated haunted woods filled with creepy neon cobwebs, ghastly ghouls, wicked witches, larger-than life spiders and beastly bats. Could it be a trick of the light or do things really go “bump in the night”?

There’s a delicious twist to the sweetest of treats on offer. Enjoy a fiendishly good hot toddy* or devilishly decadent hot chocolate* and toast a marshmallow* with someone special.

Your very spookiest Halloween starts here. Limited capacity with timed entry. Plan now to secure the date and time of your choice.
