  1. Monster Month

    Comments Off on Monster Month

    The Monsters take over Elora every October. Keep your eyes sharp and find them before they find you! Monster Month transforms the village into a spooky sight filled with creatures of all kinds just in time for Halloween.

    For nearly two decades, Tim Murton’s Twilight Zoo has been decorating the streets of Elora with a unique collection of lantern sculptures. During the month of October, visitors started coming to Elora from all over Southern Ontario to see the display. Local artists, community groups, businesses and other organizations started adding themed events as popularity grew, leading to the name “Monster Month in Elora.”

    Spooky-themed events and haunted offerings throughout Centre Wellington include a Self-Guided Tour, Spirit and Ghost Walks, Spooky Stables, Lantern Tours, Magicians and a non-motorized parade called “Monster March”.

    We ask participants and viewers to please bring cash or donations for the Food Bank.
