Family travelers are in for a real treat (or was it a trick?) at Great Wolf Lodge this holiday season. The return of its beloved Howl-O-Ween celebration is in full swing at all 22 U.S. lodges, where family travelers are invited to some fright-free fun and festive programming.
Step into the lobby and immediately enter into the ultimate fall fest, featuring pumpkins, bats, fall leaves and other cozy seasonal décor, bringing the magic of autumn to life. Seasonal fun continues through the resort with the Trick-Or-Treat Trail, allowing families to dress up in their best costumes and visit themed trick-or-treat stops to collect treats. For families of children with allergies or food restrictions, the trail also features non-candy and allergy-friendly treats.
Other events include Monster Bash Dance Party, allowing kids to get their wiggles out before bedtime by partying to Halloween songs; The Thrill of Howl-O-Ween Yoga Trails, a yoga session featuring Halloween-themed fun to help families kick off their day with movement and mindfulness; Howl-O-Ween Arts & Crafts, where kids can decorate their own fall-themed craft like Howl-O-Ween buttons, coloring sheets and pumpkin origami; and Howl-O-Ween Mini-Events & Games, including Boo Bingo, Howl-O-Ween Trivia and Pin the Wolf Ears on Mr. Bones.
