Get ready for a frighteningly fun time...
There's a whole host of ghoulish goings on as Haunted Half Term returns to the Walled Garden this October.
The popular ZooLab animal show is back in the critter corner where little ones can come face to face with fanged but friendly snakes and tarantulas as well as giant snails and frogs. Animal enthusiasts will also have the chance to stroke and handle the creepy creatures.
But that's not all, there's plenty more magic and mystery as you can head to our circus workshop and learn all kinds of fun tricks, enjoy witchy tales storytelling sessions. All of our spooktacular activities are included in an Annual Pass.
