Halloween in Waterperry and Wallingford All posts
TwitterBlogNews RSS

There’s plenty of Halloween fun to be had in South Oxfordshire at the end of this month; making it the ideal place to visit for a weekend break.

Waterperry Gardens can’t wait until October 31st to celebrate Halloween – from 22nd October to 30th October it is putting on a Great Pumpkin Hunt in its glorious grounds. Ten pumpkins will be hidden in the ornamental gardens and whoever finds one will be given a seasonal edible prize; perhaps it might be a pumpkin!
 
Tickets for this fun hunt will be £2 per child and while the kids are happily searching perhaps grown-ups could take a look at the scary exhibition of art produced by the master stone sculptors of Zimbabwe – their sculptures are dotted all over the gardens.
 
Wallingford – home of Causton in Midsomer Murders – is also celebrating Halloween in style. This market town’s railway station will be laying on Halloween trains on the five-mile round Wallingford-to-Cholsey route on Saturday 29th and Sunday 30th October.
 
The Witch of Wallingford will be making a rare appearance on the fully-decorated 1950s’ train; giving out presents with her long clawed fingers to children under the age of eight.
 
No booking is necessary to travel on this spooky journey; trains will depart from Wallingford each hour from 11:05 until 16:05. It should be quite a trip as the organisers of the train promise that there will be “spooky characters to see on both sides of the line”!
 
Have a great Halloween!
