Witches and skeletons brought a touch of Hocus Pocus magic to Mother Shipton's Cave in Knaresborough.
Families from across the district gathered at the historic woodland haunt to explore the enchanted trails and meet a chaotic trio of witchy sisters.
Alongside the spooky decorations and interactive character actors, visitors braved the famous cave and visited the unique Petrifying Well.
The popular seasonal event featured open fire pits for toasting marshmallows, signature black vanilla ice cream, and plenty of autumn atmosphere for local families to enjoy.
