Halloween at BCLM 2024

Bring the whole family along to enjoy a night of tricks and treats around our historic streets and experience a slew of spine-tingling entertainment.

There’s plenty to get stuck into: be bold as you get up close to a host of creepy crawlies and animals, meet our spooky characters, dare to venture onto our new high street transformed into a sci-fi town, witness a frighteningly fantastic fire show and terrifying tiny circus, brave the halls of the haunted house experience – and put on your ghoulish dancing shoes for our UV disco.

And of course, take your little terrors down to the village for a spot of trick-or-treating.

Don’t forget to join our costume parade and competition; prizes will be won for the best-dressed monstrous visitor.

Established in 1978, Black Country Living Museum is one of the UK’s leading open-air museums. Designated by Arts Council England for the quality and national significance of its collections, it attracted over 300,000 visitors in 2022.

Visitors can experience sights, sounds, smells, and tastes of the Black Country as they explore shops, houses and industrial workshops rebuilt in the Museum’s canalside village. From the Industrial Revolution to post-war prosperity, they will discover the history of a small region that made a big impact on the people, culture and industry of the world by meeting historical characters that bring back to life the people that made this place home, from metalworkers and miners to nurses and schoolteachers – and even a pub landlord or two.
