Welcome to Hedgend Halloween!
Trick and Treat your family this October and learn the history behind Halloween as you experience our fun, family themed attractions at our exciting event, ‘Hedgend Halloween’ at Hedgend Maze, Healesville. Ranked #1 Halloween Family Destination by the Herald Sun, 2014, we invite your family and friends to come together and enjoy a memorable day celebrating Halloween! We have gone completely mad theming up the park for this special event. This is an event for all ages to enjoy and the best thing is, Hedgend Halloween is a safe, unique and fun environment for all the family. Admission includes Hedgend Maze and all the Halloween attractions, within. You may stay and play as long as you wish. It's going to be Spooktacular! Explore the Halloween Trail (our 1.2 kilometre Hedge Maze) and you will go on a fabulous exploration to find all our hidden clues amongst the long, winding pathways. Find each clue, match it up with a corresponding clue on your Hedgend Halloween Park Map and try your best to decode and solve our secret message. I wonder if we can trick you! We have some mini ghosts also hidden in the maze for all the people who notice EVERYTHING!! How many can you count? Watch out for contaminating Zombies on the loose! We have had zombies unearth themselves from the depths of the dam on the property, and they are out in force trying to contaminate us all. Be on high alert as you play our fun, interactive game of Zombie Attack, Outdoor Laser Sport Skirmish! It could be your very last!!!! Arrgh!! Untangle yourself from the Spiders Lair. There are four webs to choose from and don't get caught in the sticky web – you could be dinner for the red backed Spiders!! Traditionally, the Pagans celebrated Halloween by collecting their food and stocking it for the cooler, colder months of the year. We’ve harvested beautiful fresh apples for you to attempt a traditional game of apple bobbing. You will get wet and you could possible stay hungry! The only tip I can suggest is to keep trying and don't give up! Enjoy your tasty Pagan Treat! Listen for whispers from Fairies as you help them cross safely to the other world. In ancient times, folk believed All Hallow’s Eve, (October 31st) is the night the fairies and ghouls are able to cross easily from the living world to the world of the dead. It was a frightening night for the living as they did not want any fairies or ghouls to pay them a visit to their house. They would carve turnips into ugly faces, (and in later years, pumpkins) and leave them at their front door in hope to scare the fairies and ghouls away. At night the town’s people would cover themselves up, disguising who they are so the fairies and ghouls couldn't identify them. We have four different levels for you to uncover at our Fairy Crossing attraction. Make your own spell in our ‘Witches Potion’ attraction. You are sent on an inner journey to rid of those troublesome dancing ghosts. It’s your opportunity to get rid of them for good so you can focus on a new exciting opportunity. Carefully follow the witches directions to guide you to complete her spell. Can you smell the death in the graveyard? After you have found your gravestone, why not try digging for some bones as well – who knows what you will find. Nightwalkers will be stumbling around you, witness deadly illusions and have fun playing our version of hole-e-pumpkin. Coffin Knock is ultimately a skilled game of Nine Hole Frisbee Golf. Are you the Frisbee expert in your family? This game may look simple, but our game of Coffin Knock is facing toward an open, panoramic valley and you may get some troublesome turbulence from the wind that has come to haunt you! Good luck as you knock on each of the coffins! Night Walkers are on the Move! Watch out! In our young Native Maze, we challenge you to find a partner and blindfold them. Using your words only (preferably safe words), we dare you to navigate your partner through the maze without touching them. It's a game of trust and there is always the option of scaring your unsuspecting partner during your task. But be warned, they will want to blind fold you next!! Good Luck on that one! Our mind can often play tricks on us! Out of our 5 senses, our sight is the one in which we rely on the most. When we see something it is sent from our eyes to our brain to be interpreted. When our brain receives this information it then adds memory and interpretation to what we have seen for us then to make a perception of what we have seen. A visual illusion is when our brain is deceived, when our perception and expectation of what is seen are differing. We have a number of scary themed illusions under the tower for you to explore. Can we bamboozle your mind? We will help you celebrate with a special treat for every person, that comes dressed in their favourite costume - you will receive a free lolly bag (no age limit). Yes, trick or treat (but we thought you would prefer the treat!). Remember, you don't need to dress in a Halloween theme. Traditionally, all you need to do is disguise yourself so the evil fairies and ghouls don't recognise you. We hope you leave feeling exhausted from all the activities, but left with a deeper sense of connection with your knowledge of Halloween and lovely memories of spending the day with family and friends. Think Differently at Hedgend Maze! Happy Halloween! |
