Rocket Licensing brings Horrible Histories and National Trust together for interactive trail

Rocket Licensing has brought together Horrible Histories and the National Trust for a themed interactive trail, hosted at West London’s Osterley Park and House.

Based on Horrible Histories: Gorgeous Georgians, the Gorgeous Georgians interactive family-friendly trail starts at half term on February 17thand runs until August 31st.

The trail boasts games, activities and historical information, including ten interactive stations where visitors can find out more about child rat catchers and chimney sweeps, pirates and highwaymen, and the era’s foul foods.

Visitors can also find Horrible Histories merchandise in the visitor shop throughout the event.

“We’re thrilled to see Terry and Martin’s world’s bestselling children’s history-book series bring its unique take on some of the Gorgeous Georgian era’s most fascinating and foul events on a real Georgian estate,” said Elizabeth Scoggins, Nonfiction, Brands and Licensing Publisher, Scholastic UK.

“Young and old will love the activities, the stories and, of course, the venue. Our thanks to the National Trust and, of course, to the many Gorgeous Georgians this interactive family-friendly trail celebrates.”

Melissa Satterly, Brand Manager at Rocket Licensing, added: “A wonderful building steeped in history with massive family appeal is the perfect venue for a family event that delves into the highs and lows of a truly fascinating era. Horrible Histories and Osterley Park and House are a perfect match for an engaging experiential activation for families!”
