This October, the Royal Horticultural Society is inviting families to get stuck in for a week of ‘Spooktacular Half Term Fun’ at each of the five RHS Gardens for selected dates from 21 October to 5 November.

In the lead up to Halloween the RHS Harlow Carr in Yorkshire, will be offering up a spine tingling array of spooky activities. From atmospheric garden trails and pumpkin painting to storytelling, and even encounters with beasts, the Spooktacular half term event promises a hauntingly fun experience for all the family.
