Conwy, Wales' medieval gem, blends ancient wonders with eerie October vibes. As Halloween 2025 nears, explore these top sights under a harvest moon—perfect for ghost hunters and families.
1. Conwy Castle
UNESCO-listed fortress from 1283 glows hauntingly at dusk. Cadw's escape room uncovers magician Maldwyn mab Diafol's dark secrets—solve puzzles amid towers whispering of Edward I's conquests. Views of misty estuary add chills. Tickets: £12 adult.
2. Medieval Town Walls
Europe's best-preserved, these 1km battlements offer spine-tingling walks. Climb 21 towers for panoramic spookiness; legends say spirits of plague victims wander. Free access, but guided ghost tours (£10) reveal grim tales of sieges.
3. Britain's Smallest House
Quay-side oddity, just 3m², squeezes in tales of doomed sailor Robert Jones. Cramped red cottage feels otherworldly—ideal for a quick, quirky haunt. Entry £1; pair with suspension bridge views across shadowy river.
4. Aberconwy House
Wales' oldest dated house (c.1180) hides merchant ghosts in timber beams. NT-owned, it's a portal to Tudor intrigue. Free for members; explore creaky rooms for subtle shivers before pub crawls in lantern-lit streets.
5. RSPB Conwy Nature Reserve
Wetlands teem with nocturnal calls—owls and bats for Halloween flair. Bug safaris and trails (past events) spot creepy crawlies. £6 entry; picnic amid autumn fog for wildlife whispers.
Bonus: Join Conwy Ghost Tours for lantern-led yarns of hanged highwaymen.
