KNOWSLEY Safari Park is getting a spooky makeover for Hallowe’en as kids go free this half term.

Children go free between October 21 and November 5 alongside one full paying adult, making half term fun even easier for families and friends to enjoy.

Ghosts, ghouls, and spooky character actors will be aplenty as Knowsley Safari’s Tiger Trail is transformed into the eerie grounds of a haunted mansion complete with an ominous super-sized gated entrance and broken tombstones ‘welcoming’ visitors into the lair.

Starting just seven days before Hallowe’en, this special event is the perfect thrilling way to get in the spooky spirit before the 31st.

Visitors to Knowsley Safari across the half term holidays can follow the illuminated, multi-sensory Halloween trail complete with chilling character actors who will be telling spooky stories and running themed games to entertain the kids along the way.

The trail will end with an impressive 8x8m real hedge maze where visitors can encounter even more spooky delights around every twist and turn as they race to the heart of the maze before they plan their escape.

Providing an affordable day out across the half term holidays with their kids go free offer, Knowsley Safari ensures there’s a fun filled trip that the whole family can enjoy whilst seeing some of the amazing wildlife and animals that call Knowsley their home.

Stephanie Costello, Events Manager, Knowsley Safari says: “Hallowe’en is always an exciting time for Knowsley Safari and this year we’re super-sizing our guest experience with the addition of our giant authentic maze. “We’ve designed the whole Tiger Trail takeover to ensure maximum spooky fun and adventure and we can’t wait to see guests’ reactions to this immersive, monstrous experience!”

Aside from the Halloween fun along the Tiger Trail, Knowsley Safari’s amazing residents will await visitors along the Foot Safari, home to stunning giraffes, mischievous meerkats, and bush dogs. Visitors can then buckle up and head along the UK’s longest safari drive, where they’ll be welcomed by Bactrian camels, white rhino, baboons, and African lions. The Halloween event is included with a paid admission ticket and kids are FREE when accompanied by a full-paying adult.

Tickets start from £22.50 if booking online via knowsleysafari.co.uk.
