Scarefest - Alton Towers (October 22-23)
Scarefest - Alton Towers (October 22-23)
Yes, another Alton visit, but with a twist! The Scarefest at Alton Towers is a special event for Halloween featuring the chance for rides in the dark, horror mazes and bonus features within the hotels.
Full details on the event here:
http://www.altontowers.com/pages/occasions/scarefest
This is for 2 days on park, b&b and free parking. Due to the nature of this event it is slightly more expensive, however, the park is open an extra 4 hours per night so in total that's more than a full extra day, 3 days into 2. It will also be slightly busier than previous events and prices will hike the longer you leave it. I am no longer taking payments for this now as it's too close. If you want to come you'll need to make a group up and book your own room(s).
Single-day visitors are also more than welcome! £35 on the gate or I have some BOGOF vouchers.
If you have facebook you can view photos of the event and get your name down there too via this link:

Usual meeting place, McDonalds at Uttoxeter services on the A50 before you turn off up the smaller roads, 9:30am. Postcode is ST14 5AA but is slightly inaccurate.
Cheers
