🍕 Pizza and alcoholic/non-alcoholic drinks available to buy.
👻 We'll also have a few live scares as part of the evening. We're definitely not professional scare actors 😂 so it's all a bit of fun… although in a pitch-black woodland it should still be enough to warrant a change of underwear.
🎭 Fancy dress encouraged.

🎟️ £20pp — strictly 18+ NO DOGS ALLOWED‼
