A new Halloween experience is set to launch this month.
The creators of The Twilight Trail have announced a new experience at Wilderspool Woods, near the Trafford Centre.
The Halloween Trail will run from October 17 to November 3.
The event will transform the 4.5-acre woodland into a haunted world, using more than 100,000 lights to illuminate a skeleton village.
Visitors can expect supernatural surprises, laser-filled gardens, colourful bats, and LED eyes watching from the treetops.
The trail will also feature a spooky soundtrack by DJ Rasp, who will create an 'eerie atmosphere' as visitors explore.
Families can enjoy interactive activities such as pumpkin picking and carving, marshmallow roasting, a skeleton petting zoo, and a skeleton disco.
There will also be a haunted hotel and a pub, 'Ye Olde Skeleton Arms', hidden in the woods.
The trail will also feature a food and drink programme curated by Freight Island, with treats from traders such as Formaggi by Lazy Tony’s, Voodoo Rays, Cabin Chocolat, and Soft Boi.
Heard, a new burger venture from two Michelin-starred chef Jordan Bailey, will also feature on the trail.
Dan Morris, co-founder of Trafford Trails, said: "We’re excited to reveal Wilderspool Wood as the location for this year’s Halloween Trail.
"This hidden space offers the perfect setting for an immersive and exciting Halloween experience.
"With DJ Rasp’s soundtrack, stunning light displays, and some of the best food traders around, we’re looking forward to welcoming visitors of all ages for a great night out."
Simon Layton, centre director at Trafford Centre, said: "We’re delighted to bring something new to Trafford this Halloween.
"Collaborating with Freight Island and other great partners, we’ve created an experience that promises to be a real treat for our visitors.
"We can’t wait to see Wilderspool Wood lit up at night."
Tickets for the Halloween Trail are on sale now, with prices starting from £8 for children, £10 for adults, and family tickets from £32.
Free parking is available for all ticket holders, with transport links also available for those travelling via tram and bus.
