Halloween at Hexham Old Gaol

Saturday 28th October - Sunday 5th November 2023 | 10am - 4pm | Hexham Old Gaol

Can you count all the Skulls lurking in the creepy corners of Hexham Old Gaol? Pick up your trail sheet at the museum Welcome Desk then explore the museum to try and find all the skulls. Count how many you can find and make your way back to the Welcome Desk with your completed trail sheet. If you’ve spotted them all then you’ll be rewarded with a small sweet treat! The Hexham Skull Trail is inspired by the gruesome history of the Old Gaol and the museum collections. Find out about our permanent ‘skull in residence’ in the Charlton Room. Between 1pm and 3pm families can also make and decorate your own wooden ghost decoration in these free and family friendly craft sessions. A helpful member of staff will be on hand to help with this activity.
