October Half Term

Mon 27 Oct – Tue 28 Oct

Join us this October half term for a special one-off spooky themed holiday workshop for 8 - 11 year olds

Horror • Funny • Family

This October Half Term, we’re diving into the world of spooky special effects—just in time for Halloween! Inspired by some of our favourite fright-filled films, this hands-on workshop explores how filmmakers create their most gruesome and ghoulish effects. From blood and guts to ooze and slime, you’ll get to see (and try!) the tricks behind the scares.

Warning: not for the squeamish!

This workshop is designed for young participants to attend independently. All bookers will receive a consent form on booking that must be completed by the young participant’s parent or guardian prior to the event. Failure to complete the form will result in your booking being cancelled. This information is used to enable us to engage safely with participants and to contact parents/guardians if required.

Tickets are £6 per young person, 20 places are available per workshop.

Our holiday workshops at the cinema are part of LHT Unwrapped, our holiday offer across our sister venues at Leeds Heritage Theatres.
