About us

This October half term, have some family fun on the Barbican and crack the Kraken Code.

Calling all brave young seamonster hunters!

Have you noticed the strange green glow illuminating the Barbican on spooky October nights?

It's professor prawn at work in his crumble laboratory in the old castle walls. His latest experiment was to create a living creature out of scraps thrown back from the fish market...but he accidentally created a monster, the ... Krakenstein!

Help Professor Prawn find the secret ingredient to the magic formula that can break the curse. 

Look for letters in the shop windows across the Barbican to spell out the secret ingredient and when you're finished come and see the mad scientists at the Tourist Information Centre to claim your reward.

Pick up the trail leaflet from the Tourist Information or download and print here.
