This on paper could very well be the best Scarefest yet. The welcoming to me was the only bit of deadwood in the line up last year so to see that gone is a big plus. I am quite delighted to see the return of Terror of the Towers with a refreshed story line. I loved Terror of the Towers but it did desperately need a change from the “What Lies Within” story as that long overstayed it’s welcome. I wonder if Thorpe Park will now bring back a certain much loved horror maze after a years absence....... Altonville mine tour and Sub Species are both brilliant horror mazes (the latter being the best in the country in my book) and I actually found Project 42 to be pretty good too for a maze with limited space to work with. All in all a pretty solid looking line up.

I'd hazard a guess that this hasn't been as popular as the park had liked, since it has now seen a £3 price reduction: https://www.thorpepark.com/events/jungle-escape Pay on the day: £7 Book in advance: £6 Passholders: £5

Worst of school trips is in July. Late June is usually manageable; wouldn't expect queues to peak at longer than 30-45mins at worst. And if you're sensible and don't do Swarm first, don't do DBGT when it opens, etc, you'll be fine.

And just like that, the line up: https://www.altontowers.com/activities/events/scarefest/thrilling-frights/#mazes -Sub Species, Skin Snatchers and Project 42 all return, and are part of the 3 maze combo ticket. -The Attic: Terror of the Towers is new, with an £8 charge (much like Welcoming, which has gone) https://www.altontowers.com/activities/events/scarefest/family-fun/ -House of Monsters is NOT returning -New family attraction Darkest Depths: located in Mutiny Bay (possibly where Welcoming was?)

Even the might Wodan starts with one of the wretched things!

Designers need to stop slow adverse camber turns. It's not big, it's not clever, it's just weird. Other than that, looks incredible m not the same ride at all, is it?
