The Beast of Gaillon Terrorizes the Castle
The second edition of Gailloween took place from October 21st to November 5th, 2023, plunging visitors into the year 1632. A mysterious beast roamed the castle grounds, causing strange disappearances that terrorized the population of Gaillon.
The program included an investigation-treasure hunt following the beast's tracks (for ages 7+, kit for 5 euros), an alchemist workshop where visitors tried to create a magic potion to save Gaillon, scary tales to listen to in the warmth of parental arms, and a Gailloween wall for free graffiti (free, no reservation required).
