Thrills by Day! Fright by Night!

The Largest Family Theme Park in Devon has joined up with two local colleges and is offering a brand new experience for visitors this October Half Term.

During the day expect Halloween fun of awesome proportions like the Flying Spooks Ride through waving monsters and the Ghoulish Ghost Train around the haunted circus. There are 1000’s of free home-grown pumpkins, carving championships, weird workshops and Trick or Treat Hunts.

However on October 29th at 5.00pm all will change in the Park. Working with South Devon College and KingEdward VI Community College Woodlands Family Theme Park is offering a whole new event ‘Woodlands Family Fright Night”.

Woodlands Fright Night will have 7 Scare Zones to test your nerves. You’ll be able to meet the ‘living’ zombies as they shudder in their dreadful Zombie Lair. Have you got the nerve to enter the Bleeding Bones Kitchen? You will be shivering through the Horror Hospital and the Vampire’s Castle promises to be revolting fun. Jessica Repton, Events Manager said “this is going to be a fantastic event; we are having great fun preparing all the zones especially the Circus Ghost Train”.

Pat Bendall, Director of Woodlands, said “We have been thinking about doing something different for Halloween and with our natural setting in the Woods it is the perfect environment for the Fright Night”. “We want the night to be suitable for all ages. We are working with Palm FM who will be here doing Dracula’s Disco with spooky games and a fancy dress competition for the little divas”.

Pat continued “Joining forces with South Devon College & KingEdward VI Community College in Totnes is a fantastic collaboration. Their dramatic skills and natural flair will bring the event to life”. Jonathon Mason, Head of Drama at KEVICC said “This is a great opportunity for our Drama and Performing Arts students to get involved in a really exciting, local, community event. Our BTEC students already have to work to a simulated commissioned event, so this is a good opportunity for them to experience what actual ‘jobbing’ actors have to do. I have always been impressed by how much imagination and energy our young people have and I know that they are all really looking forward to throwing themselves into this fantastic Fright Night at Woodlands!”

With live actors, scare-zones, music & gruesome food this night is one not to be missed. Tickets can be bought on the door or online at www.woodlandspark.com.
