Nightfall returns for its 2nd annual takeover—bigger, bolder, and more enchantingly eerie than ever before! As twilight descends, Filoli transforms into a mysterious world of roaming slugs, glowing mushrooms, shifting shadows, and spooky scarecrows.
Step into the hauntingly beautiful House, immerse yourself in a pumpkin-filled Meadow, or wander moonlit woods where Trolls lurk and unexpected wonders await.
Don’t miss your only chance to experience the Trolls by moonlight!
