As part of the Festival of Frights 2025, Howick Historical Village presents this fun, family-friendly Halloween at the Village experience!

Trick-or-treat your way around the Victorian Village, but beware of the fiendish and frightening villagers lurking in the creepy cottages and other spooky sites!
