Experience all that the Model Village has to offer and during Halloween the village transforms with ghouls, ghosts and spooky scenes causing havoc among our miniature residents — bringing Halloween to life like never before.  New scenes added for 2026!

The Halloween scenes are on display all day. As darkness falls, spook-illuminations creates an eerie atmosphere with lights, fire, sound effects and eerie mists.

NEW for 2026 –

‘Behind the Screams’: Halloween Unleashed Trail – Our new after dark experience!

This experience opens after dark only, from 5.30pm and takes you on a spooky and creepy trail behind the scenes, along the woods and past abandoned workshops, in areas normally forbidden. A chilling adventure packed with spooky scenes, eerie surprises, actors and just enough fright to delight both adults and older children. Dare you uncover what’s lurking behind!  It’s self-guided so you can go around as many times as you like. Note: Uneven and some narrow paths – sturdy footwear required, not suitable for double pushchairs.

Warning Parental Discretion: This behind the scenes walk will be dark and offers some scary and creepy moments.  It’s aimed to scare, whilst being fun and tongue-in-cheek too, but may be unsuitable for some younger children under about 6 or 7. This is totally separate from the usual visit and can be missed. As it’s self-guided you can check it out first. Children must be accompanied by an adult at all times.

Little monsters won’t miss out!

Children can enjoy our Miniature Pumpkin Hunt, searching the village for hidden pumpkins. Every successful young explorer (ages 3+) will take home their very own Halloween TREAT

Plus, there’s even more included:

  • Indoor attractions such as The Mythical Kingdom and Tiny Towns Model Railway Land…and more.
  • FREE 9-hole crazy golf with your admission
  • One FREE return for the same people within 7 days – visit day & night for double the fun. See below

Whether you’re after thrills, chills, or family-friendly frights, Frightlights at Babbacombe Model Village is the place to be this Halloween… if you dare!

More details and useful tips for this and illuminations HERE

TOP TIP 1 Some of the miniature scenes are not so visible after dark so we strongly recommend you experience the Model Village day & night.  Either by using the free return or, if it’s in one visit, arrive around 4.00-4.30pm (about an hour before it starts getting dark) and go around twice in daylight and again after dark.

TOP TIP 2 – We will be at our busiest from around 4pm to 7pm. The after dark experience will be quietest from 7.00pm until close at 8.30pm.  For just the after dark experience, aim to arrive/return a bit later, around 6.00-6.30pm, for a quieter visit.
