Drusillas, which is located between Brighton and Eastbourne, always conjures up oodles of eerie excitement and seasonal surprises to keep your little horrors half term happy!

Sugar Skull Witch

She floats, she glides, she slides and sneers, she welcomes the dead back from hundreds of years, keep out of her way and stay well ahead, if you wish to escape the Land of the Dead! Our wickedly stylish live action Sugar Skull Witch will be making appearances throughout the day between Saturday 25th October to Sunday 2nd November, gracefully and ghoulishly gliding around the Park. 40 min performance times at 12.15, 13.30 and 14.55

Freaky Photo Opps

Make sure your phone battery is full as we have lots of spooky, silly, and terror-ific photo opportunities all around the Park!

Spider's Den

On 29th, 30th and 31st October, our super spider experts will be taking over the Discovery Centre to create a 'Spider's Den' with their eight-legged friends, to teach you all a little more about these amazing creatures! Spiders are so misunderstood, so come along and listen to 'Tarangela' and Ray tell you all about arachnids and why they are actually amazing!

Terrifying Treats

Give your taste buds something to scream about with delicious Halloween-themed biscuits and cakes, seasonal Starbucks drinks, and doughnuts with 'blood' sauce!

Devilish Decor

We love to go ALL OUT, with oodles of spooky props and decorations, so prepare to immerse yourself in a truly terror-iffic Halloween atmosphere!

The whole Park will be draped in pumpkins, skeletons, spiders, cobwebs and more... so there are endless opportunities for you to capture that perfect spooky selfie - and don't forget to get a snap stuck in the stocks with Mr Skelly! Well, you know what they say... if you've got it, haunt it!
