The Full Week

Six Days.
Zero Escape.

Halloween takeover from Monday 26th right through to Saturday 31st — the whole of half term. Every attraction goes dark, and the horror games come out.

🎃 The Whole Venue Gets A Halloween Makeover

For one week only, Fun City goes dark. Fog across the floors, cobwebs over the arcade, pumpkins everywhere and the lights turned blood red. Every attraction stays open — they just get a lot more frightening.

Mon 26

Half Term Opens

We don’t normally open Mondays. Half term is the exception — one week only.

Tues 27

🎃 Pumpkin Carving

Carving and decorating session for the kids. Come dressed up — it all counts towards the costume contest.

Wed 28

🎨 Crafts & Hocus Pocus

Halloween crafts in the party room with Hocus Pocus on the big screen. 2pm–4pm.

Thurs 29

Horror Night

Horror VR running from open to close, and the laser tag arena in total darkness. 18+ for the VR.

Fri 30

The Night Before

Last chance to face the horror rooms — and your last day to get a costume entry in.

Sat 31

Halloween Itself

Costume contest winners announced. Then the live DJ, the cocktails and the full Halloween party.

The Big One
Strictly 18+

Enter
If You Dare.

Two horror experiences, and neither is gentle. Insanity : The Haunting puts your group inside a haunted mansion as paranormal investigators — puzzles, darkness and something that does not want you to finish. Death Squad drops you into a co-op zombie shooter and asks how long you can hold out.

🧛 It Knows You’re There

Something ancient is already inside the headset, waiting for you to put it on.

🧟 They’re Getting Closer

You can hear them shuffling behind you. Turning round is the worst thing you can do.

Chained and bloodied cabin door

🔒 The Door Stays Shut

Chained from the outside. Whatever’s behind it has been in there a long time.

⚠️ 18+ Only — No Exceptions

You Have Been Warned.

Strap on the headset and the room disappears. One night you’re edging through a haunted mansion in near-total darkness, finding clues and unlocking what’s locked. The next you’re back to back with your mates, watching the dead come at you in waves.

No pause button. No way out until it’s finished with you.

This is not suitable for children, and it is not suitable for the faint-hearted.

  • Insanity : The Haunting — haunted mansion, puzzles, total darkness
  • Death Squad — co-op zombie shooter, wave after wave
  • Both are co-op — nobody goes in alone
  • Strictly 18+ — ID required, Challenge 25 in operation
  • Not suitable for anyone with a heart condition
  • Not suitable if you’re pregnant or prone to seizures
  • Contains sustained darkness, loud noise and intense scares
