For the first time in its 200+ years, Shanklin Chine is transforming into a haven for Halloween ghosts and ghouls this half term.
From Friday 15th through to Sunday 31st October the Chine will be offering a spooky experience aimed at children and families. Open daily from 10:00 – 20:00 visitors can explore the Chine in all its autumnal glory, but as the sunsets the illuminations are turned on and the creepy critters come out of the undergrowth.
From 17:00 each evening during the half-term fortnight the Chine will be illuminated like never before creating a spooky, enchanting forest. Youngsters should keep their eyes open for howling werewolves, giant spiders and smiling jack o’lanterns.
During the weekends the Chine will come alive with a monster mash-up of live music from Charles Gold. Each night has a wicked, wonderful theme:
- Friday 22nd Ghost & Gules
- Saturday 23rd Rocky Horror
- Sunday 24th Come as you please
- Friday 29 Weird & Wonderful
- Saturday 30th Monsters Rock
- Sunday 31st Halloween

“Shanklin Chine is the perfect setting for a creepy ghost walk. With our winding pathways and dense undergrowth, who knows what ghostly ghouls will be lurking.
“We have also ramped up our evening illuminations meaning the shadows cast with the new lighting will add to the spooky experience. With live music, food, and toffee apples available there will be plenty of treats… oh and a few tricks.”
Standard admission prices apply and with a complimentary return within 7 days you can experience it all again for free! Visitors to the Chine do not need to pre-book.
