Oakwood’s annual Halloween celebration, Spooktacular, is to host a number of new rides and attractions.
The popular Spooktacular event will run at the Pembrokeshire theme park on the weekend of October 19 and every day during the autumn half term, from October 26 to November 2.
As well as being able to experience a range of spooky attractions and scare mazes, visitors to Oakwood Theme Park can see live action events, with zombies and other scary creatures poised to frighten and entertain guests.
The theme park will be home to two new themed scare mazes this Spooktacular, one known as Clowning Around and the other as Y Pentref (the Village).
Clowns will invite guests into the Clowning Around maze for some circus fun, while the bravest of visitors will enter the Village through an abandoned mine shaft.
The popular Hide. Run. attraction is returning to this year’s Spooktacular party, with a revamped layout and challenge that involves participants battling to escape the maze and its blood-eating zombies.
Visitors will also be able to take part in Witch Hunt, a horror industry nomination for the 2019 Scare Awards. The Witch Hunt scare maze combines specially created audio, lighting and other effects, alongside live actors to enthral guests.
Visitors will be able to watch the Witch Hunt action unfold on live on screens in Oakwood’s pizza outlet, The Haunt.
Late night ‘Spooktacular Bites Back’ events will be taking place at the park on October 26 to October 31, when the park will remain open until 8:30pm, so guests can enjoy the spooky fun after dark.
