The Dark Side of the Moon

NEON MOON’S HEDONISTIC HALLOWEEN CLUB NIGHT IS BACK WITH A BANG

ALL FUN AND GAMES Retro gaming nights are back at the Centre for Computing History – and this Halloween, you can look forward to some creepy interactive action. On Friday 29 October, there’s a horror-themed games evening to look forward to, followed by a spooky family gaming night on Saturday 30 October. The venue is happy for you to order in a takeaway, so come along, get stuck in, and celebrate the scary season while supporting the work of the centre. HAUNTED HOUSE For the ultimate realistic horror experience, head to Hinchingbrooke House in Huntingdon from 23-30 October. It delivers a dose of pure adrenaline as you journey through the venue’s dark rooms, forests and mazes, hunted by a conglomeration of weapon-wielding, costume-clad actors – all lurking in the shadows to give you the fright of your life. INTO THE WOODS Explore a terrifying trail at Stanwick Lakes from 25-31 October. This self-led event is Halloween fun for all the family, created by Rockingham Forest Trust. Visit the site to help The Stanwick Sorceress remember the spell for her magic potion, with a spooky prize up for grabs for all those who complete the trail using the accompanying Book of Secrets activity leaflet. You can pick up yours from The Snack Shack or Visitor Centre reception on the day to get involved! Scary spotlights A FEW OF THE BEST HALLOWEEN-THEMED EVENTS HAPPENING IN THE AREA
