Kenwood: Fang-tastic new Halloween trail with 50 neon spiders coming to London this Autumn
The historic grounds of Kenwood will be transformed into a spooky trail packed with frights and delights.
Something wicked is brewing at Kenwood House on Hampstead Heath… and more terrifying details have just been revealed.
Halloween at Kenwood will run from 17th October to 2nd November, transforming the historic grounds into a spine-tingling illuminated trail packed with frights, delights, and immersive surprises for all ages - including ghostly encounters, eerie spectacles, and atmospheric installations.
Roaming the pastures behind the house, the Headless Horseman rides again — a ghostly figure mounted on horseback. Venture deeper into the trail and you may come face to face with a threatening Highway Woman demanding “your money or your life!”, or a cackling witch brewing dark magic over a bubbling cauldron.
Listen closely and you’ll hear the screams of a lost spirit, wailing from the heart of a thunderstorm.
All of this is set to a bespoke Halloween soundtrack, created specially to enhance the trail’s eerie atmosphere and make the experience fully immersive from the first footstep to the final fright.
