Horror this Halloween at Thorpe Park

Halloween at Thorpe Park

It may still be summer but that’s not stopping us looking ahead to autumn – and there will be horror film-inspired mayhem this Halloween at Thorpe Park.

The Surrey theme park will be hosting a range of Fright Nights in October and November and they have teamed up with film distributors Lionsgate to put on attractions based on some of the most iconic and award-winning horror films.

Visitors will be able to experience live-action horror attractions based on You’re Next, the upcoming must-see summer horror movie, released next week, cult classic The Blair Witch Project; the dark My Bloody Valentine 3D, the twisted The Cabin in the Woods and the menacing SAW, already the inspiration for the park’s eponymous rollercoaster.

Jason Wills of Thorpe Park says: “We are hugely excited about this partnership with Lionsgate. Fright Nights promises to be horrifically immersive, yet entertaining.  A team of specially-trained scare actors is being recruited to deliver what will undoubtedly be the UK’s premier Halloween event – near London, without the need to go to Florida”

In addition to the live action horror attractions, visitors will be able to experience the park’s rollercoasters in the dark.

Fright Nights will take place on October  5-6, 11-13, 18-20, 25 and November 3 with park opening times from 10am – 10pm. Fright Nights attractions open at 3pm

Prices are from £29.99  per adult. See thorpepark.com for more.
