Chiltern Open Air Museum Halloween Spectacular

Chiltern Open Air Museum’s Halloween Spectacular returns on Friday 1 November 5-9pm. For one night only, the heritage Museum opens its doors for a spooktacular family Halloween event that sees the Museum’s historic buildings decorated for Halloween, there will be a spooky woodland walk, fire performances, bonfire, spooky horse and lots of fun family activities.

COAM has a collection of historic buildings that were the homes or workplaces of ordinary people – providing a perfect backdrop for all things ghostly!

This popular annual event is a special fundraising event for the independent charity. Families, children and adults come in their droves dressed in costumes and, armed with their torches and wellies, will brave whatever horrors the Museum has in store for them!

Spooky stories will be told around the fire of the Iron Age roundhouse, you can grab some treats by visiting some of the historic houses before warming yourselves by the fire and toasting marshmallows. Around the Museum grounds there will be Halloween-themed activities for the whole family to enjoy. The very brave can explore the scary woodland walk – but beware of the monsters that might be there in the dark! Younger children will enjoy the not-so-spooky walk and family fun storytelling.

Hot food and drinks will be available to purchase on the night, and children (and adults!) are encouraged to dress up for the event in Halloween costumes with a prize for the best.

The evening starts at 5pm and continues until 9pm, with last admission at 7.30pm. Tickets are limited so pre-booking is advised. Book online at www.coam.org.uk.
