Dates, address & more
Tuesday 28 – Thursday 30 October, 10.30am – 12noon | The Commandery
Where better to be in the October half-term holiday than one of Worcester’s oldest buildings?!
In these fun family mornings, children can decorate their own spooky doorway to take home. Who lives behind it and what would their door be like? From witches’ cottages to Dracula’s den, we can’t wait to see what everyone comes up with.
Delve into the messy play tables, create a bubbling cauldron picture and make a spooky puppet too!
Then, explore the rest of The Commandery with the Spooky House trail which will take you through Medieval, Tudor, Georgian and Victorian eras, and more.
Every session includes a spooky story, drink, and a biscuit. Aimed at children from pre-school ages to 11 years.

The family morning is £5 per child. General admission also applies and can be paid for on arrival or booked online.
