For the happiness of little ones, but also adults, the Merville Castleon the outskirts of Toulouse, intends to make Halloween 2024 an unforgettable moment. For its second season on this theme, fairy tale characters will be in the spotlight in a life-size parade in the heart of the castle park.

A 6-meter-long wolf

To mark the occasion, two of the key characters of the event were introduced. Inspired by the famous Little Red Riding Hood, the new show from the giant puppet company Bric à Brac presents “Red the Child and Wild the Wolf”.

The company sets the tone: “The perfect, polite and calm child may seem charming… But when Red fades, it's wild who takes his place. An astonishing Red Riding Hood accompanied by her gigantic wolf intends to surprise visitors. »
