About the Event
Join us this October for a frightfully fun adventure at the Haven House Halloween Trail 2026, held on Tuesday 27 October 2026 in the enchanting woodland grounds of Haven House Children’s Hospice in Woodford Green. This family-friendly event invites children and grown-ups alike to wander through a spooktacular trail filled with eerie sights, Halloween magic and plenty of treats along the way.
Whether your little monsters love the spooky side of Halloween or prefer their scares on the gentle side, the trail is designed so everyone can enjoy it. Best of all, every ticket raised helps Haven House continue its vital work supporting children with life-limiting conditions and their families across the local area.
What to Expect
Follow the path through the beautiful, autumnal woods to complete the Halloween Trail and discover ghoulishly good surprises around every corner. There is a craft station where children can get creative with Halloween-themed arts and crafts to take home as a spooky souvenir of the day.
Dressing up is very much encouraged – witches, wizards, pumpkins, ghosts and goblins are all welcome, and fancy dress always adds to the atmosphere. Sweet treats and refreshments are available, and friendly volunteers and staff help families find their way around the grounds. The route is suitable for all ages, making it a wonderful half-term day out.
Getting There
The trail is held at Haven House Children’s Hospice, High Road, Woodford Green, IG8 9LB. The hospice is easily reached by car via the A406 North Circular and A104, and bus routes along High Road stop close by. Woodford station on the Central line is the nearest tube station, with a short onward bus or taxi journey. Arrival details and meeting point are confirmed on your ticket.
Tickets & Pricing
Spaces on the Halloween Trail are limited, so book early to avoid disappointment. The trail runs from 10:00 to 15:30 on 27 October 2026. Ticket prices and booking are available via the official Haven House booking page. As with all Haven House events, proceeds go directly towards caring for local children and families who need the hospice most.
