Brighouse’s popular fun trails are back this half-term, with families invited to explore the town centre and help some mischievous monsters with their latest spooky challenge.
Running from Saturday 24th October to Saturday 31st October, this year’s trail challenges young explorers to find 15 pumpkin pictures hidden in shop windows, drawing or writing down the image they discover at each location.
There are also 10 gargoyles hiding around the town for eagle-eyed trail hunters to spot and tick off along the way.
The trail takes families around a host of shops, cafés and businesses with the hope that children and their grown ups can not just discover the monsters, pumpkins and gargoyles but some of the amazing things to shop, enjoy and do around Brighouse.
Maps can be picked up from the Visit Brighouse office at 17 Bradford Road, from participating businesses or downloaded online at www.visitbrighouse.co.uk/halloween.
As well as the trail itself, the map is packed with Halloween activities giving families even more to enjoy during the half-term break and everyone who completes it can enter a prize draw to win one of three spooktacular goodie bags.
Helen Holdsworth, Brighouse BID project manager, said:
“Our family trails are always hugely popular and it’s brilliant to see children and families exploring Brighouse together during the school holidays.
“This Halloween, there are monstrous pumpkins to find, gargoyles hiding around the town and plenty of spooky activities to enjoy along the way.
“It’s also a great opportunity to discover some of the fantastic independent shops, cafés and businesses we have here in Brighouse, many of which will be getting into the Halloween spirit throughout half-term.
“We hope lots of families will pick up a map, join in the fun and see if they can complete the trail.”
