Apologies for posting this ‘Halloween Special’ of Happy Hobbit a bit late! (A lot of our staff are on the east coast and were either under water or out of power!) Join Fili to learn how to carve a Bag End pumpkin and hear a spooky tale… or is it more than just a story? [Happy Hobbit: Halloween Special]
