Halloween at The Hunterian 2026🎃

This Halloween, why not let the Students' Representative Council (SRC) treat you to a spooktacular night inspired by ghosts, ghouls and Glasgow folklore in the shadows of Gilmorehill!

On Friday 30 October, between 7pm and 10pm, The Hunterian, will provide the atmospheric backdrop for an evening of freaky fairground games, creepy costumes, paranormal photos and plenty more spooky surprises!

• 👻 Ghosts of Gilmorehill: Discover some of the strange stories, supernatural sightings and local legends connected to the University and the surrounding area.
• 🎶 Haunted Disco: Dance among the dead as our DJ brings The Hunterian to life with a Halloween soundtrack guaranteed to wake the spirits.
• 🍹 Potions & Poison: Start the night with a complimentary themed welcome drink and some suitably spooky snacks.
• 🏆 Costume Competition: Ghost, ghoul, creature or cryptid, come dressed to impress (or terrify) for your chance to win a prize.
• 🎪 Freaky Fairground: Step right up for a twisted take on carnival classics, with spooky games including ring toss, mystery boxes and more!
• 📸 Paranormal Photo Booth: Capture evidence of your night among the spirits with Halloween props and backdrops inspired by Glasgow's ghostly legends.
• 😈 More Spooks and Surprises: Keep your eyes open. You never know what might be lurking around the next corner…
