Frightfully fun.
Returning as one of the cornerstones of Conservation Halton’s autumn programming lineup, Spooktacular Halloween is set to welcome local ghosts and goblins to Mountsberg Conservation Area (2259 Milburough Town Line).
Starting Oct. 4 and running Friday to Sunday evenings until Oct. 27, the family-friendly extravaganza is both spooky and educational.
Highlighting the festivities is a haunted barn visit that’s more on the young children scare spectrum.
“If you’ve got mature teens it may not be the bright and spook experience they’re looking for, but I’ve got some little ones and the displays we have out are really cool for that age,” said A.J. Leeming, CH’s senior manager of programs and services.
Youngsters are encouraged to come dressed in their Halloween costumes to get in the spirit of Spooktacular, which features a new Case of the Missing Pumpkins scavenger hunt for tasty treats.
The park visit also includes an illuminated night walk trail, campfires and a guest appearance from the conservation area’s snakes and owls.
KabZza Canada! will provide sweets, treats and kettle corner, and there will also be hot drinks and s’mores.
For the safety of the horses and animals that share the forest, families are asked to leave their dogs at home.
