A Spooky Makeover at Cannon Hall Museum!  

Our pre-loved bookshop at Cannon Hall Museum has had a spooky makeover, just in time for Halloween! 

Halloween dates back over 2,000 years, and while our books might not be quite that old, there are plenty of interesting reads waiting to be discovered. Whether you enjoy spooky ghost stories, thrilling mysteries, cosy autumn reads or something a little different, you never know what you might find on our shelves. 

There’s a lovely selection of children’s books available, along with a quiz on the wall for visitors to have a go at during their visit.

We’ve also recently received a large donation of lovely art and jazz music books, adding even more interesting reads for visitors to browse and enjoy.

The best part is that every purchase helps support the beautiful gardens at Cannon Hall Museum. All the money raised through our pre-loved bookshop goes towards looking after the gardens and keeping them looking their best for visitors to enjoy throughout the year. 

We’re always grateful for donations of pre-loved books, so if you have any books you’d like to pass on, you can leave them in the bookshop for someone else to enjoy.

So, next time you visit Cannon Hall Museum, why not pop into our bookshop and have a browse? You might just find your next favourite read while supporting a great cause!
