Find the Ghosts!
Until
Maybe it’s just us, but things are beginning to feel a bit spooky around the museum lately…
A group of elusive (but friendly) ghosts seem to have taken up residence in our galleries. Embark on our Halloween gallery trail this October, and help us find them all!
You’ll have to search high and low in our cabinets and drawers to find every single one. Explore the museum’s exhibitions as you go:
🏛️ Classic Lakeland exhibitions – natural history, archaeology and local stories
⛰️ Special exhibition: Outside In, an immersive landscape gallery
🧩 Interactive activities for all ages
Our Halloween Trail is ideal for:
- Families looking for fun, seasonal activities during Autumn half-term
- Families with children looking for indoor things to do in Keswick
- Visitors searching for Halloween-themed activities in the Lake District
If you have a free morning or afternoon this October half-term, our ghost trail is a great way to occupy children of all ages for a hour or two whilst exploring our galleries.
All tickets are valid for 12 months, so you can come back again and again for our seasonal activities and trails.
