Brand new Halloween experience: Spookesbury daytime family fun meets fright night events in Hampshire
From daytime family fun to terrifying scare experiences, brand new Spookesbury: Harvest & Haunt has it all this Halloween!
There are no tricks, just treats for your little witches and wizards with family-friendly immersive fun at the brand new Spookesbury: Harvest & Haunt in the heart of Hampshire.
Or as night falls and Spookesbury’s darkest secrets come to life, face your fears and dare to explore Spookesbury’s scare experiences, the perfect Halloween experience at Rookesbury Park near Wickham.
The brand new Halloween event for all ages (evening 13+ only), from October 29th to November 2nd , is the vision of Luji Events director Lucy Watts.
“Coming from Portsmouth, I am so proud to be bringing something new to this area. I’ve noticed that we’re definitely lacking large-scale Halloween experiences locally and I wanted to create something that feels magical, memorable and affordable for families. A lot of what we’re offering for kids is included in their ticket price, because for me, it’s important that families can enjoy the full experience without breaking the bank.”

Last minute news
A message from Lucy, event director of Spookesbury: Harvest & Haunt, about Spookesbury's Scare Nights: “While we were excited to bring our Scare Nights to life this year, ticket sales mean we’ve had to make the difficult decision to postpone them until Halloween 2026.
“We’re grateful for all the support we’ve received and are focusing our energy on making Spookesbury’s daytime Halloween event a fun, immersive experience for everyone this year. Evening ticket holders will receive a full refund, and we can’t wait to bring the full Spookesbury experience to Hampshire next year.
