FRIGHT Week is returning to the Welsh Mountain Zoo this Halloween with spine-tingling activities on offer.

Running from October 29 to November 6, the zoo is inviting visitors to join them in the Great Pumpkin Hunt, hear tales of spooky stories and for the bravest to take part in the Boo! Boxes educational activity.

With a range of creepy crafts, the ever-popular pumpkin carving competition also makes a return.

Charlotte Dykes of the Welsh Mountain Zoo commented: “We wanted to make this year’s Fright Week extra special here at the zoo, by introducing lots of terrifyingly terrific activities for everyone to enjoy.”

The full catalogue of events will be taking place every day throughout the October half term, in what is always one of the most popular times of the year to visit the zoo.

Charlotte added: “Autumn is such a wonderful time of the year to make a trip to the Zoo when the colours are changing and the leaves are falling.

“We are looking forward to being host to some spookily scary activities this Halloween.

“We expect to welcome lots of visitors through the gates this Halloween and would encourage anyone planning a visit to pre book online.”
