It is the week of Halloween and the veil between the living and the dead is extremely thin. Once again, the ghosts of Harewood House have come out to play, but this year they have been struck with a terrible curse – they have been turned into scarecrows!

Follow the clues, solve the puzzles hidden at each scarecrow in the South Garden, and uncover the culprit behind the haunting spell.

Crack the case and earn your reward!

We also have a second trail designed for our younger investigators: Family Scarecrow Trail for ages 2-7

Made in collaboration with Leeds community groups

The scarecrows you’ll see on display have been created in collaboration with local Leeds community groups.

This activity is part of our commitment to engaging with, and supporting local communities, alongside initiatives such as the Community Access Membership scheme and out £2 ticket.
