October 26 Mystery Halloween tour of Lorca castle for children

El Extraño Caso del Mago Lope y el Malvado Señor Hyde at the Fortress of the Sun

Based extremely loosely on the story of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, this activity at Lorca castle concerns a wizard (El Mago Lope) who spends his days preparing potions in his laboratory in Lorca castle, with the slight inconvenience that sometimes he simply disappears!

In his place appears a crazed monster, obsessed with music and dancing. What’s is going on? Can the children help solve the mystery?

Kids are invited to come along dressed in Halloween costume and join in the dancing and games for the evening, and the activity is especially appropriate for those aged 3 to 10. At the same time, they are given a light-hearted tour of the castle and of course Halloween treats!

The event takes place on 26th October and 1st and 2nd November starting at 12.00 and 15.30 and lasts an hour and a quarter (plus the play time afterwards in the Patio de los Monstruos).

Reservations should be made online here for 26th October, here for 1st November and here for 2nd November.

Until 19th October prices are set at 12.75 euros for over-17s and 9.75 euros for those aged 3 to 16, rising to 14.75 and 12.75 euros after that date. The chance to add a picnic or menu to your booking will be offered shortly.
