Late Night Spooktacular!

The Rifles Berkshire and Wiltshire Museum is opening its doors after hours on Friday 30 October for the Late Night Spooktacular!, a Halloween trail that runs until 8pm. The museum's galleries, usually home to military history, are transformed into a spookier version of themselves as the sun goes down, with the trail taking you through the building after it's closed to the general public.

It's a fancy dress night, and the museum is encouraging everyone to turn up in costume. There's a prize for the best-dressed among the visitors, so if you've got a particular outfit you've been waiting for an excuse to wear, this is a good spot for it. The trail itself is the main draw, and it's designed to be worked through at your own pace, with the galleries shifted into a Halloween mood for the evening.

The museum is located at The Wardrobe, 58 The Close, Salisbury, SP1 2EX, right in the heart of the city. Entry is free, though donations are welcomed, and it runs until 8pm on the night.
