What’s the best way to kick off the official Halloween season? With a stroll down Glenlore Trails, Witching Hour!

 

Glenlore Trails Witching Hour is an immersive night walk located in Commerce, Michigan. Glenlore Trails’ most enchanting experience yet! Step into a spellbound world where witches weave their magic, potions simmer in the dark, and eerie creatures come to life beneath the moonlight. Glowing spells dance across the trees, strange shadows flicker, and whispers echo through the woods as the clock counts down to something unknown…This interactive night walk is perfect for all ages, making it an ideal choice for an unforgettable family outing, a fun-filled hangout with friends, or a magical date night under the stars. Earlier time slots tend to fill with young families, while the evening brings out a louder crowd.

This is a perfect event for a family night (kids of all ages, no jump scares), a date night, or quality time with friends. You can enhance your experience, as you wander through luminous lights and spellbound sounds, a keen eye will reveal enchanted places touched by the coven’s wicked power. With the tap of a wand (for those brave enough to wield one), you might even stir up a little magic of your own — and yes, wands from previous years will still work! 

As a mom with teenagers who are ready for something a bit less elementary and a youngest who is deathly afraid of anything too scary, this was the perfect experience! And it was nice to slow down, take a leisurely stroll outdoors, watch the kiddos enjoy themselves, be amazed by the time and effort that went into bringing the trail to life, and ultimately soak in the energy and memories of the night.

 

Looking to make it a girls’ night out or a double date night with friends? The earlier time slots tend to fill with young families, while the evening brings out an older crowd. We arrived around 8:45 PM, and the crowd was a great mix of some older adults and families with kids.
