Cadw is launching a series of Halloween events at some of Wales' most iconic historical sites.
The spooky season will see these landmarks transformed, offering both haunted tours for adults and fun activities for children over the half-term break.
Beaumaris Castle will feature a spooky trail through its historic walls, with visitors warned to watch out for gruesome figures and the witch's kitchen.
There will be a prize for those who complete the trail, and a creepy craft room where people can meet the resident witches and make some scary creations.
These events will occur on October 25, 26, and 31.
Plas Mawr will offer an after-dark tour on October 31, where visitors can explore Britain's finest Elizabethan townhouse by night.
The tour includes spine-tingling storytelling, and tickets must be booked beforehand.
Conwy Castle will host a Halloween skeleton hunt, where visitors can help solve a spooky mystery involving skeleton bones found around the castle.
The event takes place on October 31.
Harlech Castle will present a creepy trail through the castle, along with Halloween crafts where visitors can make their own spooky badge to take home.
This event is scheduled for October 30.
Denbigh Castle will offer a spooky trail through its towering remains, with creepy craft activities and a Halloween chocolate prize for those who complete the trail.
This event is on October 31.
Plas Mawr will also have a Halloween trail on October 31, with ghoulish surprises hidden within its grand historic rooms.
Caernarfon Castle will have a Trick or Treat Trail on October 31 and November 1, where secrets and sweets will be hidden throughout the fortress.
Primary school-aged children are the most suitable for this event, but it is open to all brave explorers.
All of these events are part of Cadw's packed Halloween calendar, which aims to create moonlit memories steeped in mystery, embrace the inner witch or wizard in visitors, and provide a fun-filled family day out with a sprinkle of spooky charm.
For those looking to take full advantage of the events available during the October half term, a Cadw membership offers free event entry and unlimited access to 132 historic places across Wales.
This provides a unique way to explore Wales's rich heritage, and children also go free with any adult membership.
