The Monster Mash

It’s that very changeable time of the year, the weather is changing, the clocks will soon be changing and even the Monster March is changing! Yes, the Monster March is now the Willow Wood MONSTER MASH!

We’ve taken the decision to drop the sponsored walk and just have the world’s best Halloween Party! For some reason, we couldn’t scare up enough volunteer marshals to accompany the walkers, and as safety is paramount have decided to concentrate on our fancy dress party.

Held in the imposing surroundings of the Jubilee Suite at Dukinfield Town Hall on Saturday 27 October the Monster Mash is open to everyone – so long as you’re suitably dressed in your Halloween finest. There will be cash prizes of £50, £30 and £10 for the best dressed so let your imagination run riot. It’s family friendly, starting at 4.30pm and ending at 9.30pm, and the price of £8 for adults and just £4 for under 16s includes a hotpot supper – or veggie alternative – and cake. Incredible value – especially as under 2s are free!

This year there’s also a full licensed bar available, so as Chris Hayden, event organiser said, “It’s ideal to get groups of friends into the Halloween spirit, before they head off into town. Have a couple of drinks, supper and a dance to the great mix of music that will be played including, of course, the Monster Mash by Bobby ‘Boris’ Pickett and the Crypt Kickers.”

Numbers at the party are limited to 250 so register now!
