Halloween Half Term

Join us this Halloween half term for spooky fun and thrilling adventures for all the family.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event (admission applies)

Join us this Halloween for a walk on the eerie side.

As the fog rolls in and the trees cast long, twisted shadows, venture deep into the heart of Mount Stewart on a mystical journey through the Folklore and Legends Halloween Trail, where eerie tales from folklore and mythology come to life. Your journey begins with Anansi, the cunning trickster from West African folklore. Anansi loves to spin tales, so continue round the lake to discover a treasure trove of stories from across the world for all the family to discover. Enter if you dare, but remember, not all stories have happy endings.

After you escape the lake trail, slither your way into the House where the magical lands of Mount Stewart will unfold as you discover the magic inkpot trail full of witches, dragons and mythical creatures. Last entry to the House is 3.45pm.

Join us in the secondhand book shop for spooky storytelling and later in the week seasonal stories.

Halloween at Mount Stewart is suitable for all ages. Dress up is encouraged but also you may need wellies depending on the weather.
