Scare Mazes
To be announced...
You asked for a new maze? Be careful what you wish for. An all-new nightmare awaits. What lies beyond the doors remains a mystery... for now.
Trailers
Witness the power of film as iconic horror nightmares are reimagined into something far more sinister. Descend into darkness in a new screening Blood Red Roses. Once the reels begin to turn, there’ll be no intermission… and no escape. Will you survive Trailers?
DeadBeat
It's two minutes to midnight. Will you surrender willingly or dance the night away, embracing what may be your final night? Beware—this is no ordinary venue, where the music doesn't soothe the soul; it devours it.
Stitches
Become part of the Toymaker’s collection as you enter a twisted world of new creations. Venture deeper into Stitches, where new toys await you for playtime. But these aren’t the playthings you remember… will you escape the Toymaker’s workshop or become her next prized possession?
Survival Games
Lost in a labyrinth with no followers to aid your survival, you must fight for your life as you battle through relentless rooms full of atrocious assassins and treacherous traps! With multiple routes to take, will you choose the right path to victory or will it be game over in this gruesome scare maze?
Scare Zones & Shows
Rebel Ball
Get ready to fuel the ultimate Fright Nights party! Sponsored by Fanta, this electrifying hub comes alive with music, dance, fire performances and our very own Fanta Wolf DJ.
The Crows
The Crows have abandoned Mawkin Meadow, spreading their twisted rituals across the park. Step into the shadows and uncover their cursed origins, but beware, nowhere is beyond their reach.
Lucifer’s Lair
Cross over into the Underworld, where Lucifer roams and the night takes a sinister turn. Expect devilish encounters and wicked surprises, but don’t let the Lord of Darkness find you…
Creature Campus: Reunion Reckoning
25 years after first stepping foot on Creature Campus, the Supernatural Schoolkids return. Old rivalries are reignited as they battle to become the most powerful beings on Campus.
Purgatory Town
As darkness falls on Big Easy Boulevard, join the Voodoo celebrations. Meet new inhabitants, embrace the chaos and discover spirits from beyond the veil. You may never want to leave…
The Conjuring 4D Experience
The doors to Sunset Cinema are opening once again.
In 1970, renowned paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren uncovered the most horrifying case of their lives. After a family moves into a secluded farmhouse in the countryside, strange noises, smells, and shadows appear.
The family must rely on the Warrens, a powerful couple with connections to the spirit world, to rid their home of any evil. Confront the haunting, demonic entity with the pair of paranormal experts in this chilling 4D Experience®.
Based on a true story, The Conjuring 4D Experience will give guests a thrill featuring hair-raising special effects and 3D projection to bring them into the story like never before.
This attraction is recommended for ages 15+
Rides in the Dark
Nothing compares to a night ride on the UK’s tallest rollercoaster, Hyperia, where darkness amplifies every moment of airtime and every drop feels infinite. Plunge into the twisted world of SAW – The Ride, where the world’s first horror movie–themed rollercoaster turns every turn, inversion, and launch into a scene of pure psychological terror.
Don’t miss the chance to ride all your favourite rides in the dark.
