Looking for things to do this Halloween in South Devon? Whether you're planning a family day out during October half term or looking for something a little more spine-tingling, there are plenty of ways to get into the Halloween spirit.

 

And this year, Kents Cavern is going all out, with spooky fun for families and darker experiences for those brave enough to venture underground after dark...

Trick or Treat Trail at Kents Cavern

Looking for a Halloween activity the whole family can enjoy? From 17th October to 1st November, Kents Cavern's Trick or Treat Trail will be bringing Halloween into the prehistoric caves! 

 

Follow the trail underground, take on Halloween challenges and discover whether there's a trick or a treat waiting around the next corner. You'll also get to explore the incredible caves along the way, with a treat waiting at the end...

 

It's a fun option for an October half-term day out in South Devon, and the trail is included with general cave admission, winner winner!

Halloween for Older Kids & Adults

If you're after something a little darker, Kents Cavern has a couple of options that turn up the spooky factor...

 

Go Darker at Kents Cavern

 

From 17th October to 1st November, the usual guided tour gets a Halloween makeover with 'Go Darker' guided tours.

 

Discover the mysterious marks found within the caves, ancient rites, folklore and stories of the last witches in England, while exploring the caves in a very different light.

It's recommended for those who like their history with a darker edge – so perhaps not one for the little ones!

 

The Ghost Walk

 

For an even more atmospheric Halloween experience, there's The Ghost Walk.

 

Taking place after dark, this paranormal tour (12+) delves into tales of haunted homes, restless spirits and the strange things said to dwell alongside us, all within the ancient darkness of Kents Cavern.

 

With tours taking place on selected evenings throughout October, it's a spooky night out for older teenagers and adults who are feeling brave.

Halloween in South Devon

Of course, Kents Cavern isn't the only place to enjoy Halloween in South Devon. October is a great time to explore the area, with pumpkin picking, Halloween trails, spooky events and autumn days out taking place across Devon.

 

But if you're looking for something a little different this Halloween, heading underground is hard to beat!

 

Whether you're following tricks and treats with the kids, exploring the darker side of Kents Cavern or joining a Ghost Walk after dark, there's a Halloween experience waiting beneath the surface.
