The UK's first outdoor interactive walkthrough horror attraction opens July 2008
United Kingdom of Great Britain & N. Ireland (Press Release) June 10, 2008 --
A TERRIFYING NEW TOURIST ATTRACTION LAUNCHES IN LANCASHIRE!
The UK’s first outdoor interactive horror attraction will open in Lancashire during July 2008!
THE SEEDS OF FEAR…
A Lancashire farm is diversifying away from its traditional tourist offerings with the addition of a totally terrifying horror attraction for summer 2008. Hawkshaw Farm Park, minutes from the M6 junction 31, has partnered with AtmosFEAR! Scare Attractions www.atmosfearuk.com – the UK leaders in theatrical fear and scary entertainment, to create the UK’s first outdoor summer scare attraction ‘HEX in the Harvest’ which opens in July.
Amanda Dowson, owner of Hawkshaw Farm, is looking forward to the opening of the attraction; she said "Over the past few years it has become increasingly apparent that farms must diversify in order to support their traditional roles. We hope that by combining our existing day time maize maze with the expertise and professionalism of AtmosFEAR! we can together create a quality family attraction and a bring a buzz back to the area."
The six acre outdoor tourist attraction will be a live action night time interactive experience set inside maize cornfields. Visitors will navigate their way along 750 meters of pitch black pathways in groups of ten, armed only with a handheld torch… As they explore the maze they will encounter professional live actors and special effects including a 10 foot ‘stalkaround’ monster and a chainsaw wielding witch in a forty minute fright fest which will leave them screaming for more!
SOMETHING WICKED THIS WAY COMES
AtmosFEAR!’s Creative Producer Jason Karl, former co-presenter of LIVING tv’s ‘Most Haunted’ said “HEX in the Harvest is the UK’s first ever outdoor scare attraction, it’s a little like being in a horror film, where you are the victim! These type of shows are traditionally associated with the Halloween season in Britain, but in America they operate all year round. Our ‘Scream Team’ have been creating this kind of show for several years, but this is by far the largest location we have worked in, the show is suitable for all ages, but children under ten must be accompanied by an adult!”
