Festive spirits unfold in the Berber wilderness: Enigmatic sorcery journey from Solingen to Haan during Halloween.
In the heart of Bergisches Land, the autumn season takes on a unique twist as Halloween transforms the region into a magical and spooky world. From Solingen-Hoehscheid to Haan, Halloween is celebrated with creativity and enthusiasm that excites both young and old, bringing neighborhoods together.
In Solingen-Burg, the "Pink House" is a well-kept secret tip beyond the city. Every year, it metamorphoses into a Nordic Halloween oasis for three weeks, creating an autumnal dream world that plays with Scandinavian flair. Andrea Stolzenberger, known for her baking books and the brand Cute Cottage Overloaded, is the mastermind behind this enchanting transformation.
Just a stone's throw away in Hoehscheid, a home is turned into a horror masterpiece, with a theme of witches. The ancient festival of Samhain, merged with All Saints' Day, is the origin of Halloween, and it seems this homeowner has embraced the roots of the celebration with gusto.
In Solingen, Haan, and Langenfeld, Halloween is more than just a night of tricks and treats. It's a creative festival that immerses visitors in a spooky atmosphere. The R. family in Solingen-Aufderhöhe is a prime example, celebrating Halloween with great enthusiasm, inspired by Mrs. R.'s work at the "House of Life".
The R. family's front yard is a sight to behold, with bloody limbs, spider webs, and a "rattling fir tree motorbike" three weeks before the big night. In Haan, the terrace at the "Halloween Danger Zone" becomes a "Walking Zombie Area" with warning signs and scary figures.
The F. family in Langenfeld-Wiescheid also delights visitors of all ages with new decorations every year. Their home transformation is a special event, particularly significant as they came together on Halloween in 2010.
Beyond these well-documented displays, the region offers other Halloween-themed experiences. The THEAS Theater ensemble, for instance, is organizing a special Halloween show this year, offering a theatrical experience with Halloween themes.
However, for the most creative and up-to-date displays, local event calendars or community forums closer to late September or early October on Bergisch-Live.de or local tourism websites will be the best resources. These often update with seasonal events and elaborate decorations typical in private houses or public Halloween festivals in the region.
So, if you're planning a visit to Bergisches Land this Halloween, be prepared to be immersed in a world of witches, zombies, and Nordic oases. It's a celebration not to be missed!
