Taking place on Sunday 30th October, from 3pm, the Friends of Doddington Wood are hosting their first event for Halloween.

Come along and walk through the haunted woodland trail just as the sun is beginning to set, keeping your eyes peeled for monsters, ghouls and ghosts!

Enter your pumpkin into the best Jack-o'-lantern competition, with a prize for first place judged by Loraine De Simone, the Major of Cramlington.

Dress to frighten for the best costume competition, with a prize for first place.

There will be tricks and treats a plenty, as well as spooky stories (if the light lasts!) and a pumpkin spotters trail too.

Everything is free to attend, but we ask that you reserve a ticket just so we know how many to expect on the day.

This event is designed with younger children in mind, but all children are welcomed.
