It can be hard to find kid-friendly things to do on Halloween, but we put our own howling twist on this beloved holiday with our Howl-O-Ween<\/a> celebration that lasts all October.<\/p>

Costumes That Make a Splash<\/h2>

Traditional Halloween: Costumes are worn for a few hours of trick-or-treating or parties.<\/p>

Howl-O-Ween: At Great Wolf Lodge, costumes aren’t just for one night! Kids can wear their favorite outfits throughout their stay to all Halloween activities, even while enjoying our famous indoor water park.<\/p>

Spooky Decorations<\/h2>

Traditional Halloween: Houses and yards are decorated with jack-o’-lanterns, cobwebs, and skeletons.<\/p>

Howl-O-Ween: Our entire lodge transforms into a howling good time! From our Great Clock Tower to our restaurants, every corner of Great Wolf Lodge gets a playful, family-friendly Halloween makeover.<\/p>

Activities and Entertainment<\/h2>

Traditional Halloween: Activities might include watching scary movies or visiting haunted houses.<\/p>

Howl-O-Ween: We offer a host of special Halloween events like a Dance Party, Story Time, and Halloween-themed arts and crafts. All our activities are designed to be fun for the whole family, without any truly scary elements.<\/p>

Treats and Eats<\/h2>

Traditional Halloween: Candy is the main treat, with some homes offering healthier alternatives.<\/p>

Howl-O-Ween: While we certainly have plenty of sweets, we also offer special Halloween-themed meals and snacks at our restaurants.<\/p>

Duration of Fun<\/h2>

Traditional Halloween: Typically celebrated on October 31st, or perhaps at a weekend party.<\/p>

Howl-O-Ween: Our celebration runs for weeks leading up to Halloween and for the duration of October, allowing families to choose a time that works best for their schedule.<\/p>

Weather-Proof Fun<\/h2>

Traditional Halloween: Outdoor activities can be impacted by cold or rainy weather.<\/p>

Howl-O-Ween: Rain or shine, warm or chilly, our indoor celebration ensures the Halloween fun never stops!<\/p>

At Great Wolf Lodge<\/a>, we’ve taken the best parts of Halloween and added our own howling twist to create Howl-O-Ween. It’s a unique, family-friendly way to celebrate the spooky season that you won’t find anywhere else!<\/p>
