About
There’s something strange in the neighbourhood, it’s rather weird and doesn’t look good…. think we need to call The Ghost Hunters!
This Halloween half term something supernatural is brewing at Borde Hill and we’re calling all young Ghost Hunters to come and find out what’s spooking the Powers Family at Mortal Mansion. Explore the Garden on a children’s story trail to see if you can help solve the mystery as to why Sir Haunt-A-Lot is unable to rest in peace.
Ghost Hunter’s taking part will have to answer riddles, solve clues and see how fast they can navigate around Ghost Ships on the South Lawn to help bring peace back to Mortal Mansion. Everyone completing the trail will receive a prize, and on selected days can visit Miss Crimson Nightshade in her mysterious library to tell her what Sir Haunt-A-Lot is seeking.
The trail is suitable for children aged 3 to 8 years old and takes place in the Garden.
Cost: £4.50 per trail, plus Garden admission to include a prize. Free to Members (Child or Family Memberships).
