A Glowing Lantern Parade is returning to the popular BeWILDerwood Cheshire attraction next month and it comes with a special perk for visitors.
The event, where families are guided through the woods by their glowing lanterns, runs on October 14 and 15 and then every evening from October 19 right up to Halloween.
You're invited to 'discover curious characters, spot peculiar pumpkins, marvel at magical lights, make jokes with the BeWILDerbats, and lots more'.

Families will get to 'see the woods in a whole new light', with little ones encouraged to wear their spooky costumes for the occasion.
Tickets for the event cost £12.50 and this year there's a treat in store for visitors - as anyone who books can get a half price day ticket to use at the attraction between October 21 and 31, which includes half term.
It means a day ticket for adults and kids will cost £10.75, or £9.75 for those between 92cm and 105cm. Under 92cm go free.
Once you’ve booked your Glorious Glowing Lantern Parade tickets, you’ll receive a special code for 50% off day tickets between October 21 and 31.
You can use your half price day ticket for the same date as your parade if you wish, but you need to book them separately. Tickets can be booked online.
