Silly Spooky Fun

Every day throughout the school holidays; from 7th to 29th October, odd things happen at Almond Valley once the leaves fall from the trees and Halloween approaches!

Silly Spooky Fun

About Silly Spooky Fun

The dark corners of the old mill have been taken over by a family of crazy inventors, who are engaged in top secret experiments. Nobody knows the purpose of their bubbling pipes, flashing lights and strange whirling machines, but it's all rather odd and just a little bit scary. Our boffins have also to set up their equipment outside among the trees and fields where giant eyeballs gaze down at you. Are you being watched? Did that one just wink? Follow the trail, crack the clues, and solve the mystery.

And once you've done the scary bit, head off to the pumpkin patch, grab a wheelbarrow and find yourself a prize specimen. The big orange pumpkins can be discovered among the straw beneath the shelter of the barn, so there's no need for wellies. Find your way past smiling scarecrows, big bale monsters, and low-flying bats, to enjoy a happy seasonal celebration. 

The Pumpkin Patch is open every day of Silly Spooky Fun, there's no need to book in advance, and of course, your standard admission ticket allows you to enjoy all the other attractions of Almond Valley.

It all adds up to a silly, scary, Halloween celebration that's suitable for all of the family. Come dressed as your favourite scary creature and become part of the fun.
