Scream Aloud, a smaller version of which appeared at Strawberry Fields in Boldre in 2021, has expanded to include six live-action mazes.
Take a walk through the grounds of Sleepy Wood Cemetery and learn about the history and perhaps some of the secrets of some of the local residents who reside there. Previous visitors have told of blood-curdling screams coming from the Cemetery, as well as footsteps and whispers on clear foggy nights.
Enter the dense, dark Lymington Forest, home of the Witches Coven, where ghostly figures can be seen in the dark and reality merges into the land of the pagan legends.
In the House of Dolls, see creepy rooms and come face to face with haunted dolls, demonic toys, and unpleasant spirits.
The Doctor is ready to see you on Ward 13 for the criminally insane. See if you can escape the evil experiments of Dr D Ranged and his team of ruthless nurses.
Having escaped the hosptial, you find yourself in the prison grounds of Woodbury County Jail, run by Warden Johnson and his team. They are on the hunt for escapees making a break for it and you certainly don’t want them to catch you, as they have the most brutal punishments ever known.
Finally, Fannie's Yard is home to the mistress of fear with the horrific past life, where a lot of hidden memories are locked away.
There's also a fun fair, food court, and bar.
Scream Aloud is being produced by company director Joseph Carruthers who has brought onboard scare expert Robert Clayton for some unique twists and extra scares, making it their biggest and scariest Halloween event ever.
The event runs for ten nights in October at the venue, on Southampton Road between Brockenhurst and Lyndhurst. Timed entry slots are between 6pm and 10pm.
