Carisbrooke Castle will host a range of 'spook-tacular' fun with a comical twist this Halloween half-term.

The Halloween events at the castle run from October 15-31.

Daytime will usher in a brand new Beano themed spooky quest, giving way to a ghoulish ghost tour at night.

Diana Evans, Events Manager, said:

“What better way to get into the spooky Halloween spirit than with a visit to a historical site?

"We’re excited to be working with Beano for the first time ever — Halloween is full of mischief and who is more mischievous than Dennis?

"Our Ghost Tours are always incredibly popular, so we recommend booking early to avoid disappointment.”

Vanessa Andreis, Franchise Planning & Partnerships Director at Beano, added:

“We’re incredibly excited to partner with English Heritage for the first time, and for families to enjoy our spooky Beano Halloween Quests up and down the country this half-term.

"Beano’s been entertaining for kids for more than 80 years, so these iconic English Heritage sites are the perfect place for us to cause mischief and mayhem this Halloween.”
