Small groups of children in Halloween costumes move through the paths of a dark yew maze. They carry framed lanterns by hand, their warm lights marking separate points among the clipped hedges. From the elevated stone terrace, the paths form a pattern around the scattered groups.

At the centre, children gather near a carved pumpkin resting on a stone pedestal. The pale stone and orange pumpkin stand out within the enclosing green walls. Some lanterns shine more brightly than others, leaving stretches of the narrow paths in deep evening shadow.

Beyond the maze, a meadow fades into blue autumn mist. The worn stone terrace in the foreground and the dense clipped hedges give the garden a textured setting. Cool dusk surrounds the small warm lamps, drawing attention to the children exploring the turns and meeting near the central pumpkin.
