Fancy being Spooked for Halloween? Check out these 17 Cork events!

Dusted off the Halloween post from the last 2 years changed the dates and added anything I know about for this year.   

I am not big on Halloween more of a Christmas person myself but now that my eldest is nearly 6 she is really getting into it.  Possibly because she is so excited about the haul from the trick or treating!

Please don’t feel the need to bring your kids to any of these, I am not pushing them.  I don’t get paid to advertise them, I just like knowing what’s on so I am sharing them.     Kids will probably be just as happy with a few colouring sheets, dressing up and trick or treating!

Here is a list of the Halloween Events I know about around Cork if you want to get in on some of that scary action or there are also some less scary options for you as well.  links to the individual websites or facebook pages below.
