CREEK FREAKS: UNCHAINED - SCARE ZONE


NEW for 2020! How much wood would a wood chop chop if a wood chop could chop YOU? The Freaks of the Creek have hacked their way out of the Creek Woods Saw Mill and are wreaking havoc on the town.

This scare zone is open from 3pm, located in Old Town.


The FEARSTIVAL Arena - Scare Zone


NEW for 2020! A mysterious menagerie has rolled into the heart of the Island, but is it all just smoke and mirrors? Step into the dusty and dilapidated FEARSTIVAL Arena and witness the notorious Compère and their freakish cast astonish and disturb their willing spectators. This cabaret of carnage may sound fun, but will you leave shaking in FEAR or grinning in awe?  


Located in The Dock Yard from 3pm. 


The Howling of LycanThorpe High - Scare Zone


Chill out in the twilight with the students of LycanThorpe High but keep your wits about you and pray the moon isn’t full - these creatures can be a more than a little boisterous.

Terror at Amity High - Scare Zone


Terror at Amity High: High School Sucks!


It’s Prom Night at Amity High and the teens of Amity Cove invite you to join their bloodthirsty festivities up at Make-Out Point behind the old Speedway.  But these are no ordinary high schoolers – they’re always on the lookout for fresh young blood to join their gang. Stay calm, try to blend in and hopefully you’ll survive the night…


TANTALISING, TERRIFYING SHORT HORROR MOVIES


Nothing says Halloween like a terrifying horror movie marathon, so take a break from the thrills in the Screamplexx Cinema presented by Bloody Cuts!

Located in Angry Birds Cinema from 3pm. For show times, check the entrance signage on the day of your visit.


THE CROWS


Near The Crows nobody goes, are they watching? Nobody knows. Myths passed down from generation. Did that just move, or was it your imagination?


They roam and they creep in the dead of night, but blink and they’re gone, out of sight. Near The Crows, nobody goes. Are they watching? Nobody knows.


Appearing at various mystery locations from 3pm.


New for 2020. Roots of Evil - Scare Maze


Unearth the horrors that lurk within a forsaken forest and prepare to meet the terrifying abominations that dwell within. Move discreetly through the dark undergrowth and pray your presence goes unnoticed, or risk becoming one of the forgotten forever.

Platform 15: Thorpe Park’s One-Way Halloween Train


Depart on a one-way ticket and trek along the overgrown railway line, the last known route of the vanished locomotive - the notorious Sleeper Express. Don’t lose your tracks and risk disturbing the haunted souls that were once aboard, or you may just experience the same chilling fate. Can you outrun what lies at the end of the line or will your journey terminate here, at Platform 15?
