For the first time ever the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland is hosting a family friendly Halloween trail at Edinburgh Zoo.

In partnership with NL Productions, the team behind The Enchanted Forest in Pitlochry, the wildlife conservation charity will welcome guests on a spooktacular light trail on select evenings throughout October.

Visitors can listen out for a rustling amongst the trees and peeping eyes as visitors make their way through the park, meeting lots of spooky characters from witches and wizards to scarecrows and spiders.

Tickets for Edinburgh Zoo Spooktakular are on sale now at https://www.edinburghzoo.org.uk/halloween
