Happy Halloween! - Central Coast News

The animals at the Australian Reptile Park were in fine Halloween spirit this week as they starred in a fun video set in a graveyard to celebrate the spooky holiday with festive fun!

Edgar and Honey the koala joeys explored the spooky graveyard setting as Scooby and Shaggy the Tasmanian Devil joeys relaxed in a carved Halloween pumpkin.

Then the scaly and slimy creatures came out as snakes, lizards, toads and turtles explored.

Creepiest of all was the array of spooky spiders crawling through the graveyard, including a funnel-web dancing through the ribcage of a skeleton.

Park Manager Billy Collett said Halloween was a great opportunity to celebrate the creepy crawlies and dangerous animals, alongside the cute and fluffy mammals.

“More importantly, if a fun video like this reaches the right audience and inspires them to learn about our koalas, snakes, Tasmanian devils, or any of Australia’s native wildlife—that’s a big win for me,” he said.
