Spooky Half Term fun is coming to Lytchett Matravers Library!

Get into the Halloween spirit with a visit to the library this half term - 24 - 31 October 2026.
We will have a brand new display of creepy books featuring spooky stories, chilling
mysteries and frightfully good reads for all ages.

Join us for a special Halloween Creation Station on Saturday 31 October, where children can make a Halloween-themed
craft to take home. It's a great way to get creative and enjoy some seasonal fun.

While you're here, be sure to explore our new Autumn book displays for both children and adults. From cosy autumn reads
and heart-warming stories to spine-tingling tales and scary adventures, there's something for everyone to enjoy.

Pop in this half term, discover a new favourite book, and celebrate all things autumn and Halloween at your library!
