A spellbinding mini-golf experience like no other! πŸ§™β€β™‚οΈβ›³ The Witching Hour Mini-Putt is hands-down the most magically immersive mini-golf experience in New Zealand! From the moment you step inside, you're transported into a spine-tingling world of eerie graveyards, glowing forests, and haunted ruins. The attention to detail is phenomenal β€” from the glowing tombstones and fog effects to the haunted sounds and creepy characters peering from the shadows. Every hole feels like a new chapter in a ghost story. πŸ‘»πŸŒŒ The lighting is absolutely enchanting β€” deep purples, neon greens, and ethereal blues give the whole course a surreal, otherworldly glow. The props are movie-quality, and it’s clear the creators poured heart and soul into building this creepy-fun wonderland. What sets this place apart is the atmosphere. It's not just mini-putt β€” it's a full-blown adventure. Whether you're on a spooky date, having a laugh with mates, or bringing the family for some glow-in-the-dark fun, this place delivers on every level. πŸŽƒ Bonus points: The course is fully accessible, the staff are friendly and welcoming, and the playlist is perfectly curated for spooky vibes. Tip: Bring your best putting game and a sense of humour β€” this place is both challenging and hilariously fun. And yes, you’ll want to take lots of photos β€” it’s Instagram gold. πŸ“Έβœ¨ 10/10 would brave the haunted greens again! πŸŒοΈβ€β™‚οΈπŸ’€πŸŒ²

β€œWe are up on Wellington for my 40th birthday and fancied a game of mini golf. After a little google search we found Witching Hour. We arrived and meet Bless...what a gem she was absolutely amazing. We forgot about our mini golf game and enjoyed just chilled for over a hour at the bar before our game just chatting and buying drinks. She is a massive asset to this business so friendly and charming. We had so much in common that we exchanged details and really hope she will come see us in Christchurch. The mini golf was great well laid out and even has a few little jump scares. I know that Bless is heading to Germany so this is her last Halloween come have a chat and a drink and knock a few balls around.”

β€œClay. Is the most amazing host. I also got a 42 which is my best game. The entire vibe was amazing. Everyone that got stuck behind us and heard us say all of our ridiculous things were lovely. Best fun time late night place for all x I forgot to Google review last time, and Clay has been here for 3 games. He is the best. What a host x”

β€œI love coming to your place. I think that was the best golf I've ever been to. I love the crocodile. That was my favourite golf hole. I would love to come back to your place again. I love you and my name is Remy. Thanks for being so kind. If i can, i would like to give her (the hostess) 10 stars. - Remy age 6”
