Even without Mohamed al Fayed at the helm, it seems Harrods have gotten right into the Halloween spirit right across the store.
Far from just being a few fake webs and a blacked out corner of the shop, Harrods are offering free magic entertainment such as Marvin’s Magic Illusionist who somehow manages to remove various of his body parts, along with more sedate activities such as the creepy crafts which involves a lot of cutting and glitter, aka very messy.
Even the cafe’s within the shop have taken on the Halloween theme with their Lily Vanilli’s cupcakes which look like ordinary chocolate cupcakes except with a gravestone on top….oh yeah, kids will love it!
The itinerary runs from the 29th to 31st October and at the time of writing was:
- Friday 29th October: Lily Vanilli will launch her book “A Zombie Ate My Cupcake” at a monstrous tea party at 1pm.
- 30th October: Visit the Harrods Food Hall for tips on how to cut a pumpkin.
- 30th to 31st October: Crafts, magic, face-painting and Yoomoo are all available on the fourth floor. Waterstones are running tarot readings and spooky stories at 2 pm, 2.30 pm and 3 pm.
So if you’re in London or looking for something to do this weekend, why not make a break of it and go see the sights, after visiting Harrods of course.
