Festival of Frights - Fright Night

Howick Historical Village’s Festival of Frights is back, and bigger than ever!

As part of the Festival of Frights 2024, Howick Historical Village presents Fright Night! Explore the grounds after dark, lit up and decorated for All Hallows' Eve. Beware of fiendish and frightening villagers lurking along the way…

Trick-or-treat your way through the streets and follow the ‘Riddle Route’ trail to learn about creepy Victorian Halloween traditions. Make an old-fashioned lollipop, visit the sweet shop or watch a spooky live show by Act One Productions. Enter the costume competition at 7pm for your chance to win incredible prizes.

With face-painting, creepy crafts, food trucks and a gelato cart, this will be a spooktacular evening not to be missed!

Pre-booking tickets is strongly advised. There will only be a limited number of door sales. Children under 14 must be accompanied.

Note: this event proceeds RAIN OR SHINE. Most of the attractions are inside and the costume competition and mystical magic show will also shift indoors if raining. If wet come along with your cloaks and umbrellas to take in the spooktacular sights!

Tickets are non-refundable.
