Scare City promises to be ‘more terrifying than ever’ as it descends on the abandoned Camelot Theme Park in Chorley for a sixth year.
The attraction will see the gates of the long-abandoned park reopened with the ruins resurrected into what’s described as ‘a living, breathing nightmare’.
By torchlight and terror, thrill-seekers will descend into a haunted kingdom ruled by fear and monsters promising a journey through darkness for thrill-seekers and horror fanatics alike.

Scare City is returning for a sixth year(Image: Scare City)This year’s event will feature a selection of ‘terrifying’ new zones including ‘The Hollow’, a desolate woodland, ‘Puppet Master’, the toy maker’s workshop where innocent toys hide deep dark secrets, as well as the return of a number of familiar faces including ‘The Slaughter House’, where Camelot’s resident cannibal lives, and Carnivalley, the madhouse that is no laughing matter.
Abyss is also set to return as ‘Abyss 2.0’ featuring a room shrouded in darkness, which will see thrill seekers bravery put to the test in claustrophobic darkness, unsure of what, or who, might be within reach.
Starting out as a drive-in cinema in 2020, Scare City – one of Europe’s largest scare attractions – is now a walk-through horror attraction and one of the UK’s most talked-about Halloween experiences.
