Halloween horror trials are set to take place at the Greenfield Valley Museum.

As part of the Welsh Museums Festival, visitors can participate in Halloween horror trials at the museum near Holywell.

The Welsh Museums Festival is a week-long celebration of museums across Wales, organised by Museums Federation Cymru, and runs from Saturday, October 26 to Sunday, November 3.

Other events as part of the festival include a Dragon's Cave installation at Rhayader, a Halloween-themed light and shadow play event at Glynn Vivian in Swansea, and spooky crafts linked to the history of Halloween at Cyfarthfa in Merthyr Tydfil.

The Welsh Government has provided funding to 21 museums for individual events.

Visitors can also take part in a Museum Passport Challenge where children can get a stamp at participating museums.

If they visit one museum in half term, they can enter a prize draw to win a den-making kit.

If they visit six museums by April, they are entered into a prize to win a micro scooter.

The Minister for Culture, Jack Sargeant, visited Rhondda Heritage Park to take a look at this year's passports and to check out the Park's new digital Black Gold exhibition.

Mr Sargeant said: "This fantastic festival is such a great opportunity to see how Welsh Government funding, with intrinsic support from the Museums Federation Cymru, can make a real impact on visitors’ experiences to our nation’s beloved museums.

"We are keen to highlight the contributions museums make across Welsh communities, and with so many taking part in this year’s Festival it’s a real chance for people to visit their local museum and have fun this half term.

"With such a variety of events and activities planned, there’s sure to be something for everyone to enjoy."

Professor Jane Henderson, board member of the Museums Federation Wales, said: "The Welsh Museums Festival is a wonderful example of the relevance of our heritage as a focus for family fun, lifelong learning and social wellbeing.

"We are delighted that the Welsh Government has invested in Welsh museums and their communities and look forward to welcoming everyone to our exciting week of events."
