THERE will be plenty of spooktacular activities for your little ghouls and goblins this half-term at The Mall Blackburn.

Until Friday, between 10am and 4pm, children will be able to park their broomsticks at the free creepy craft workshops and get their faces painted as their favourite ghoulish characters in Victoria Court.

To celebrate the scariest day of the year, The Mall Blackburn will also be hosting a Mall Monster’s Ball with party games galore and the chance to meet the very friendly Mall Monster.

All children that attend dressed in a Halloween costume will receive a free a goody bag filled with terrifying treats!

The Excitable Kids play area, which has been a huge hit with shoppers this year, will also be open throughout half term.

Loraine Jones, general manager at The Mall Blackburn, said: “Halloween is one of our favourite times of year here at The Mall and we are definitely getting into the spooky spirit.”
