  • What should I wear for the Spooky Walks?

    Both the Friendly Frights and Wicked Haunts Walks take place outdoors along a wooded route with bark chippings, grass and gravel, which may be uneven or wet. We strongly recommend wearing suitable footwear and weather-appropriate clothing, including waterproofs if needed.


    Each booking can be fully customised, with different check-in and check-out dates, guest numbers and pitch types if needed. If you’d prefer a little help, our friendly Booking Team will be happy to assist, just give us a call on 01953 715319.

  • Is the event suitable for guests using mobility equipment or pushchairs?

    Guests using mobility equipment or pushchairs are advised to consider off-road capability, as parts of the Spooky Walks take place on uneven outdoor surfaces. For full details, please refer to our Accessibility Information.

  • Which Spooky Walk should I choose?

    The Friendly Frights Walk is designed with younger guests and more cautious visitors in mind. Expect a fun, spooky atmosphere with plenty of surprises, but nothing too intense – perfect for families and first-time Halloween adventurers.


    The Wicked Haunts Walk offers a darker, more thrilling experience with stronger scares, atmospheric lighting and a more intense Halloween feel. This walk is best suited to older children, teens and adults who enjoy a good fright. If you’re unsure, we recommend choosing the option that feels most comfortable for you and your group.


  • Is the Wicked Haunts Walk suitable for everyone?

    Wicked Haunts is designed to be more intense. If you are sensitive to flashing or strobe lighting, suffer from asthma or a heart condition, are pregnant, or are of a particularly nervous disposition, this experience may not be suitable. We encourage guests to choose the walk that feels right for them.

  • Can I take photos or videos during the Spooky Walks?

    No. Photography and video filming are not permitted during the Spooky Walks. This helps preserve the experience for all guests and ensures everyone’s safety.

  • Can I bring my dog?

    No. Due to the nature of this event, dogs and pets are not permitted. Registered assistance dogs are exempt. Please be aware that while fireworks are low noise and set to music, they may still include sudden bangs.

  • What is your refund and cancellation policy?

    Tickets are non-refundable, and refunds will not be issued due to inclement weather or other circumstances beyond our control. In the unlikely event that we need to cancel the event due to exceptional circumstances, we will notify you as soon as possible and a full refund will be issued, minus the transaction fee.
