Spooky fun was guaranteed when the "Hühn" visitor mine opened the tunnel mouth on Halloween night on 31 October 2022 and invited creepy fans from near and far with great creepy decorations and culinary treats. 500 creepy fans (!) accepted this invitation and experienced a scary Halloween night in the incomparable ambience of the visitor mine. As befits the occasion, glowing pumpkins, baked bread, skeletons and ghosts were not to be missed. As a local speciality, the mountain devils also made an eerie appearance.

The team at the visitor mine would like to thank all the guests, both young and old, and all the helpers, and is already looking forward to next year when it's trick-or-treat time again!
