Get ready for a spooky Halloween and other exciting events this weekend

Penny Royal will launch its 'Carnival of the Forgotten' for Halloween, beckoning its patrons in for two nights of "eerie enchantment courtesy of performers, candy and a sideshow alley."

Those wishing to be scared out of their socks can purchase general admission tickets for entry to the chilling carnival filled with candy stations, spine-tingling surprises and more, and the chance to partake in Penny Royal's coveted costume contest.

And, for those not in the mood for hardcore scares, Penny Royal will run milder sessions between 7pm and 8pm, with the intensity rising after sundown.

Penny Royal's Carnival of the Forgotten will take place on October 27 and 28, from 7pm to 10pm at Penny Royal Adventures.
