You run a 5 km route while actors dressed as zombies chase you and try to take your “life bands”. It is exciting and very frightening for some people, so it is not recommended if you dislike being scared. The event starts at 9 p.m. and finishes around 11 p.m. You need sports shoes and warm clothes, and there is no time to stop for food during the run. After the race, there is loud music and a prize ceremony in the car park.","Zombie Run Challenge",{"text":10,"title":11},"This small restaurant near the main bus station offers a special Halloween menu with vegetarian and vegan choices. You can choose a two-course or three-course meal, including pumpkin soup, mushroom pie and chocolate cake. The atmosphere is cosy, with candles and simple decorations, so it is easy to talk and relax. Costumes are welcome, but many guests come in normal clothes. The restaurant is open until 10.30 p.m., and you can book a table online or by phone. It is not a loud place, and there is no live music, just quiet background sounds.","The Witch’s Cauldron: Vegetarian Dinner Night",{"text":13,"title":14},"Blackwood Farm offers a classic haunted house experience with actors, dark rooms and sudden surprises. Visitors walk through old barns and outdoor areas, and the group moves quickly, so it is not suitable if you want to sit down. It is very popular, so queues can be long, especially after 8 p.m. The farm is outside town and you usually need a car to get there. There is a small snack stand, but it closes early. The event is open until midnight, and it is designed for people who want strong scares.","Haunted House at Blackwood Farm",{"text":16,"title":17},"Work together to solve clues in a “haunted hotel” escape room. The rooms look spooky, with old furniture, strange sounds and secret messages, but there are no actors and nobody jumps out at you. Your team has 60 minutes to escape, and you must book a time slot online. It is a good choice for friends who enjoy puzzles and want to do something active indoors. Groups of 3 to 6 people are allowed, and staff can give small hints if you get stuck. The last game starts at 9 p.m.","Escape Room: The Haunted Hotel Mystery",{"text":19,"title":20},"The local cinema shows two family-friendly Halloween films, one at 5 p.m. and one at 7.30 p.m. The stories are silly and not scary, so it is a safe choice for younger viewers. You can buy popcorn, sweets and soft drinks, and the seats are comfortable. However, there are no special decorations and no costume activities, so it may feel like a normal cinema visit. The later film ends after 9 p.m. Tickets can be bought online or at the door, but popular times sell out quickly on Halloween.","Family Cinema: Funny Halloween Films",{"text":22,"title":23},"If you want a big Halloween night out, this city-centre club offers a DJ from 10 p.m. until 3 a.m. There is a costume competition at midnight with prizes for the funniest and the scariest outfits. The dance floor is large, and the music is loud, so it is best for people who want to dance, not chat. You can buy drinks and simple snacks at the bar, but it is not a place for a full meal. Tickets are cheaper if you buy them before Halloween. The club is close to night buses and taxi stops.","Midnight Masquerade Club Party",{"text":25,"title":26},"Riverside Park becomes a bright Halloween walk with hundreds of carved pumpkins and colourful lights along the paths. It is designed for families and groups of friends, so it is fun rather than terrifying. You can stop at different photo points, including a giant spider web made from lights. Food trucks sell soup, chips, hot drinks and sweet snacks, and you can buy a warm blanket if it gets cold. The trail is outdoors and takes about 45 minutes, but you can stay longer if you want. It is open from 6 p.m. to 10.30 p.m.","Pumpkin Lights Trail in Riverside Park",{"text":28,"title":29},"Spend Halloween evening in a warm, quiet room with candles and a local storyteller. You will hear traditional ghost stories from the area, with short breaks for hot chocolate and tea. This is not a party, so there is no loud music, and the audience stays seated most of the time. The event starts at 7 p.m. and ends at 9.45 p.m., so it suits people who don’t want a late night. Tickets must be bought online because the room is small. The stories are spooky, but they are more about mystery than blood or violence, so younger visitors also enjoy them.","Candlelight Ghost Stories at the Old Library","Halloween Night Out",[32,35,38,41,44],{"name":33,"text":34},"Josh","Josh wants an exciting night with dancing and a DJ.
