The Hunt for the ‘Thirteen’ Halloween Spells

During the All Saints’ Day holidays, set off as a family on your own to follow in the footsteps of the Thirteen Halloween Spells through the narrow streets of Sommières. Puzzles, local heritage and a few thrills await you, leading up to a magical finale at the Tourist Office. This trail is recommended for children aged 6 to 10, accompanied by an adult.

A witch was quietly preparing the Recipe for Fear when a grimoire unleashed 13 mischievous spells. The spells immediately sabotaged her potion: hidden measurements, misplaced ingredients, bewitched passages…
Families are invited to explore the historic centre of Sommières to thwart the spells’ effects. By exploring the town’s heritage and completing small challenges, children will collect the clues, measurements, ingredients and protective items needed to put the recipe back in order. The adventure ends at the Tourist Office, where the final cauldron and one last surprise await them.

A fun family outing, designed primarily for children aged 6–10 accompanied by an adult!

Duration: between 45 minutes and 1 hour.
The treasure hunt is available to buy at the Tourist Office during opening hours: Monday to Friday, 10.00–12.30 and 14.00–17.30. A word of advice: allow at least an hour to collect it before closing time.

“In Sommières, even the local heritage can cast a spell.”
