Fairytale Farm is set to host its popular annual Halloween event with a special theme.

The farm, in Southcombe, Chipping Norton, will hold its annual Halloween event, "Scarily Ever After: Fairy Tale Villain vs Beast", from Saturday, October 26 to Sunday, November 3.

The family-friendly celebration invites visitors to experience a unique rendition of the Beauty and the Beast story.

The event will explore the mystery of the real villain—whether it is the fairy who cast the spell or the prince cursed as a beast.

The half-term event is packed with activities for visitors of all ages.

They can partake in a pumpkin giveaway, with the Beast gifting pumpkins from his Castle Pumpkin Patch in a bid to win Beauty's heart and break the curse.

Guests will assist Beauty in deciding if she should break the spell or leave the Beast forever, as she sings her way through her dilemma.

Families can also participate in acts of kindness and gather enchanted rose petals to help break the curse before the last petal falls.

The farm will also host its popular Illuminated Evenings at each sunset.

Nick Laister, owner of the farm, said: "Halloween at Fairytale Farm is always a highlight of the year, but this time, we're taking it to a whole new level with a captivating storyline that will engage families in an enchanting and interactive experience.

"We've got pumpkins, potions, and plenty of spooky surprises in store."

A special late-night Halloween and Illuminations event will take place on Wednesday 30 and Thursday, October 31, with extra activities including a Wizardry Workshop, Spooky Story Corner, and Trick or Treat Halloween Bingo.

The evening will conclude with a stroll through the farm's illuminated gardens after dark.

Mr Laister added: "Our late-night Halloween party is set to be an unforgettable experience.

"It's an evening packed with Halloween fun, and we're encouraging families to come in costume to really get into the spirit of things."

Tickets are available for £15.49 for adults and £14.49 for children, which includes entry from 3pm onwards.

Visitors who purchase tickets earlier in the day can stay for the evening Halloween party at no extra charge.
