Spooky Fun on Halloween 2025 at Fort Independence
Boston’s favorite kid-friendly Halloween event is BACK in October 2025!
What’s in store?
- Spooky storytelling sessions
- Free face painting & temporary tattoos
- Walk inside the Fort and see exhibits
In 2024, the popular FREE ‘Children’s Magical Halloween Castle’ was held inside the historic fort walls. Our Children’s Magical Halloween Castle was an absolute hit last October!
A talented storyteller captivated young audiences while kids of all ages lined for free tattoos and face-painting. Sections of the internal fort were decorated with colorful and spooky decorations that transformed the fort into a Halloween wonderland.
We’re already gearing up for next year’s event and can’t wait to make it even bigger and better! ince this is a labor of love that takes careful planning and effort, we’d love your help! If you’d like to contribute your valuable time, please get in touch with castleisland8@gmail.com

IN 2024, after four years of postponements, the popular FREE ‘Children’s Magical Halloween Castle’ was returned to inside the historic fort walls. This event was held at the end of October and was a HUGE success. We are looking forward to having the event next year.
