Pick your own on the farm at the edge of the Bolton moors, six pounds a pumpkin. The farm marks that price with an asterisk and does not spell out what it covers, so read the booking page before you assume entry is included.
Half term week with the farm decorated for Halloween and a spooky sweet hunt, all included in ordinary farm admission. The Fright Night on Saturday 31 October is a separate evening ticket, £16 a head, with a spooky woodland walk.
A Halloween disco session at the trampoline and inflatable park, ninety minutes for £9.99 with grip socks extra. Fancy dress optional, long sleeves sensible.
Bonfire night with the bangs taken out: no fireworks and no loud rides, just a bonfire, hot chocolate, a magic show, balloon making and unlimited marshmallows. Run by the Wildlife Trust for younger children and anyone who hates the noise. Parking is charged.
A school fundraiser that finishes by 7pm, with a Titanium Fireworks display set to British music, food vendors, stalls and a raffle. It falls on Remembrance Sunday and there is a moment of reflection built in, worth mentioning to the children beforehand.
