A dragon perched on the glass roof, giant spiders hanging above the walkways and creatures of the night on the loose… For the All Saints' holiday, Polygone Montpellier is transforming into a Halloween lair.

Le Pacte d'Halloween: a life-size treasure hunt through the shopping centre
An ancient magic pact once protected Polygone from the creatures of the night. It has just been broken. Since then, witches, vampires and werewolves have left the shadows and roam the walkways of the shopping centre. Your mission: help the witch find the elements needed to restore the pact and bring back balance before Halloween ends. Guided by your phone, you make your way through the centre in search of clues. Along the way, you will meet the characters of the story, played by actors present at every level. Each has their own rules: riddles, bargaining, tailing or hide-and-seek — it's up to you to convince them so you can move forward.

A dragon and giant spiders under the glass roof
This year, Polygone is pulling out all the stops. A dragon has landed on the glass roof of the entrance, and giant spiders have spun their web above the walkways. The decorations are visible to everyone throughout the period: perfect for a family souvenir photo.
