Halloween 2019: Inside Alton Towers’ terrifying new attraction where guests are attacked by monsters
HUNDREDS of thousands of people visit Alton Towers every year just for their terrifying Scarefest.
The theme park's Halloween event is back for the 12th year running with some brand new thrills - but you have to be quick as there just four days left.
Ahead of its opening, Sun Online Travel went behind the scenes for an exclusive look at their spooky new maze, The Attic.
The Attic - the fifth maze to join Scarefest - is a Victorian Gothic themed attraction designed up by Alton Towers' entertainment creative manager Kieran Kimberley.
As the first Gothic horror maze set in Alton Castle, it tells the tale of the widowed master of the house.
He hired a governess to look after his kids, and following rumours of their relationship, all of them mysteriously died on the same night.
The Attic starts from £8 per person, and is only suitable for guests over the age of 15.
Alton Towers also opened a year-round scare ride called Alton Towers Dungeon earlier this year.
Guests can learn about the history of the area while being terrified by performers.
We've also rounded up the best Halloween events across the UK including Thorpe Park and Dreamland.
