The second event that has got everyone excited is The Scare Factory which will be happening in King John’s Castle making it the biggest scare factory yet.

The Scare Factory will be running from Thursday, October 20 until Monday, October 31. Tickets are being sold at €15 per ticket and student tickets are €13.

Something for the family to enjoy is the Happy Halloween Experience 2016 at the Jetland Shopping Centre on the Ennis Road. Children can visit The Witches House and everyone is encouraged to dress up.
