Festival Information
South East
Overview
Tulleys Shocktober Fest, Europe's largest scream park, returns for another year of thrills and chills. This premier Halloween event features ten haunted attractions, including the popular Creepy Cottage and Horrorwood Hayride. Visitors can enjoy a variety of street food, bars, live music, and performances like the Circus of Horrors and Wastelands fire show. The event boasts an impressive roster of roaming characters, creating an immersive and spine-tingling atmosphere. Recommended for ages 16 and up, Shocktober Fest offers a unique blend of scares and entertainment, making it a must-visit destination for thrill-seekers and Halloween enthusiasts alike.
Festival Attendance: ≈115,000 seasonal visitors
Shocktober Fest does not publish an official per-night capacity. Organiser materials describe the event as attracting approximately 80,000–150,000 visitors across the October season, with over 100,000 guests attending across around 25 event nights. A commonly referenced figure of 6,000 visitors relates to an unofficial steward comment reported in a review rather than an official published limit. This figure therefore reflects estimated cumulative seasonal attendance rather than a fixed nightly site capacity.

Accessibility
Shocktober Fest strives for inclusivity, but due to the nature of the event, accessibility is limited. The Horrorwood Hayride can accommodate one standard NHS-sized wheelchair and is the only attraction without strobes. Other haunts feature uneven terrain, ramps, and weather exposure, making them unsuitable for wheelchair users. Free carer tickets are available with valid documentation. The event may be challenging for those with certain conditions, including limited mobility, epilepsy, and asthma. Visitors with additional needs should carefully consider their participation, as the attractions can be physically demanding.
