We will be taking part! Come and find our night watchman!
💀THE NIGHTWATCHMEN TRAIL 🎃
30-31st October, 10-4 💀
Long ago, these cheerful skellies kept watch over the town and its historical buildings after dark, not to frighten
But to guard its laughter, kindness and sparkle. Once a year, when autumn rustles through the leaves, they return to make sure the magic in the town is still alive.
But this year, they’ve decided to play a little trick of their own, and I’m afraid they’ve been up to a touch of mischief…
They’ve let the holidays run away with them, and they’ve committed some crimes, and have hidden themselves into 17 Belper businesses. Your task is to find them all, find out what naughty crimes they’ve done and uncover the message hidden within to send them home…
How to join- the trail is free to participate!
1. Collect your trail map from
2. Trick or treat your way to all 17 participating businesses, and find the hidden Nightwatchmen and record their crimes.
3. Take the first letter of their crimes and see if you can work out the hidden spell to send them back home…
4. Hand your completed trail map to either or and claim your prize- choose wisely, as each business could be a trick or a treat….
