See Whitby Abbey in a spectacular new light this Halloween!

Join us at Whitby Abbey to see the breathtaking gothic ruins bathed in dramatic, glowing illuminations. It’s the ultimate seasonal experience for the whole family.

Have your camera at the ready as you explore the ruins after dark and enjoy spook-tacular food and drink from our brilliant local vendors.

Of course, it wouldn't be Halloween in Whitby without Dracula. This year, the spirit of Bram Stoker’s legendary novel is brought to life beneath the shadows of the abbey in a brand-new, captivating way.

Join us for new interactive family performances and step into the story, explore the mysteries of the night and experience Dracula not as a figure of fear, but as a captivating guide to one of the world’s most famous tales.

Don't miss out on Whitby's most magical Halloween tradition.
