Boo at the Zoo

Some of the zoo's inhabitants are pretty scary at the best of times, but Halloween is their chance to be extra creepy as visitors are treated to this week of family-friendly activities during half-term. 2016 sees mask making and pumpkin carving in the Bat Cave and a ghost hunt aboard the Whipsnade Zoo's steam train. There's also a Ghoul School to sign up for giving little ones the chance to concoct spells and wrap up a mummy.
