Shrieks and Treats
- 25th Oct - 2nd Nov 2025
- 10am - 4pm
- Blists Hill Victorian Town
- Included in museum admission, additional charges apply for some activities
The Victorians were some of the first to mark Halloween, so for October half term, Blists Hill Victorian Town will be exploring all things spooky.
There will be lots of family-friendly activities for everyone to take part in including two trick-or-treat trails with prizes for all participants. Older children can enjoy the gothic literature trail and little ones can do the pumpkin trail.
Your kids will be able to dip a rainbow witch or warlock wand with our candle experts, have a go at Sweep-the-rat, or have a go at printing in our spooky Victorian printshop.
Every day there will also be a spooktacular story show featuring some of Blists Hill's most infamous characters, with the chance for the audience to get involved.
