What to expect
Halloween at Parke's Castle
Something stirs at Parke's Castle this Halloween… Bring the children, if they're brave enough, for an afternoon of shivers, giggles and spooky surprises on the shores of Lough Gill.
Huddle close for ghost stories told within the old castle walls, where shadows creep and footsteps echo in empty rooms. Then set off on a treasure hunt through the castle's nooks and crannies, cracking clues left behind by its ghostly residents.
Fancy dress is encouraged: witches, ghosts, goblins and ghouls all welcome. There'll be face painting too, so everyone can leave looking positively ghoulish.
Suitable for children under 10, accompanied by an adult.
We look forward to a frightfully scary afternoon.
We are hosting two sessions for this event in the afternoon - 12pm to 1.30pm and 2.30pm to 4pm.
