A Theme Park Like No Other: THORPE PARK FRIGHT NIGHTS 2019 Hacks!

Isn’t this time of year just the best? You’ve waved goodbye to an awesome summer and are settling into longer, chillier nights that scream out for a warm blanket and something pumpkin spiced! But let’s face it, the main reason this time of year rocks is of course because it marks the return of FRIGHT NIGHTS.

If scare mazes and horror are your thing, FRIGHT NIGHTS is where it’s at. This year we’re serving you award winning horror mazes, shocking short films, vampire dance spectaculars and if being chased by chainsaws wasn’t enough to keep you on your toes, an awesome coaster challenge!

Because great minds think alike, we’re sure you can appreciate that FRIGHT NIGHTS can be extremely popular. Check out our horror hacks to help you make the most of FRIGHT NIGHTS 2019!

 

DEAD GOOD DISCOUNTS

Pre-book online right now! You’ll earn a whopping discount on your entry price and if you choose the e-ticket or print your tickets at home option, you’ll be able to sail straight through the turnstiles when you arrive!

And while we’re making savings, why not pre-book your car parking too! You’ll benefit from another fab discount and be able to make a smooth exit at the end of the day, escaping the chainsaw maniacs that could be tailing you as you run screaming from the Resort.

Remember there are 12 merciless hours of FEAR to keep you entertained throughout the spooky season so make sure to take in every second of scare. We would suggest arriving as early as possible. Beat the traffic, beat the queues and make a dash to some of our big players at the beginning of the day. Start on the Stealth/The SWARM side of the Island and work your way towards Colossus/SAW:The Ride throughout the day!

STAY SAFE THIS FRIGHT NIGHTS

We want you guys to have the BEST time at FRIGHT NIGHTS! To make sure this happens, we conduct security checks on everyone that enters the Resort. Travel light! There’s no point bringing your life’s possessions to a Theme Park!

1. You have to lug it round all day

2. Any additional items are more things that could get lost, fall out your pockets or get broken

3. We have everything you could need at the Resort already!

If you HAVE to bring things with you that you don’t want to take on rides, there are lockers located in the Lower Dome, next to The Flying Fish, and near the Megastore.

Obviously, we encourage you guys to turn up in your most fearsome Halloween outfits but please don’t wear a mask! We have a ‘no mask’ policy on the Island to protect you and our staff.
