This Halloween, Princess Catherine is brewing up something extra special for her three children—Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis. Alongside Prince William, the family plans to enjoy a cozy two-week holiday during the children’s school break, making the most of the festive season.
Known for keeping family traditions alive and infusing playfulness into her children's lives, Princess Catherine has prepared a Halloween packed with spooky surprises and festive fun that is sure to enchant the young royals. Sources suggest that the Princess of Wales has planned an exciting Halloween adventure, where her children will not only partake in trick-or-treating but also enjoy classic seasonal activities.
As is customary, the Wales family will retreat to their countryside home, Anmer Hall, in Norfolk. In previous years, Catherine has been spotted picking up costumes at the local Sainsbury’s for her kids. This Halloween promises to be even more magical, with sources hinting that the Princess has organized a series of spooky surprises to make the holiday unforgettable. Anmer Hall’s expansive grounds offer the perfect backdrop for family adventures, complete with pumpkin carving, a ghostly scavenger hunt, and a mini treasure hunt designed to send George, Charlotte, and Louis on a quest for hidden treats.
With her eye for detail and love for seasonal traditions, Catherine is likely to transform every corner of Anmer Hall into an eerie Halloween wonderland for her young family. This year’s celebrations hold extra meaning, as they come after Princess Catherine’s recent journey through chemotherapy. She shared a heartfelt message with the public, offering a rare glimpse into her life with William and their children:
“The last nine months have been incredibly tough for us as a family. Life, as you know, can change in an instant, and we have had to find a way to navigate the stormy waters and road unknown. This time has, above all, reminded William and me to reflect and be grateful for the simple yet important things in life, which so many of us often take for granted: simply loving and being loved.”
While Halloween in the UK may not be as extravagant as in the US, where millions of children trick-or-treat each year, Princess Catherine has embraced the tradition with her own children. In the past, she has even been spotted trick-or-treating in London with George, Charlotte, and Louis, showing a relatable, down-to-earth side. In one instance, Tamara Ecclestone’s husband, Jay Rutland, shared a candid photo of Catherine and her children at his door, captioned:
“For anyone doubting how down-to-earth William and Catherine are—this is Catherine with their kids, knocking on our door in London, trick-or-treating at Halloween.”
Catherine, a longtime fan of Halloween, likely inherited her love for the holiday from her mother, Carole Middleton. In a post for her former business, Party Pieces, in 2022, Carole shared, “Halloween is an autumn highlight for me. I can still remember the fun and frights from my own childhood—the chance to dress up, decorate pumpkins, and go trick-or-treating. I’ve even grown my own pumpkins this year, so I’m looking forward to decorating those with my loved ones.”
The Prince and Princess of Wales often encourage simple family traditions, such as choosing Halloween costumes and decorating pumpkins together. In 2019, Princess Catherine was even seen shopping for costumes with George and Charlotte at a local Norfolk store, blending in like any other parent celebrating the season.
For Catherine, Halloween is about more than costumes and candy; it’s an opportunity to foster joy, embrace life’s simple pleasures, and bring her family closer together. As she continues to prioritize her health and well-being, this Halloween promises to be a celebration of resilience, joy, and the enduring bonds of family.
