    Christmas 2023

    It’s totally understandable having Curse closed for the event this year as I expect it needs a bit of work doing after it’s first year. I would like to see it open in future for this event though. The fact it’s set during New Year’s Eve, a part of the Christmas period, seems silly not utilising it.

    It’s really quite shocking just how quickly the Christmas event deteriorated! Seems pointless going this year.

    Scarefest 2023

    I was slightly worried at the beginning as there was a solid three scenes with NO actors at all and I thought this was going to be terrible, but after that it really picked up the pace. One thing I will say about Altonville is that I think it's very cheap that they're marketing it as 'new'...

    2023: General Discussion

    Just to add to the monorail talk - without that and the Skyride and a full 10am-9pm day on park, my total step count yesterday was 35,838! Safe to say I’m feeling it now and am absolutely exhausted 😂

    Scarefest 2023

    Scarefest 2023: 🎃🎃🎃 This was my first visit to Scarefest at Alton Towers since 2019 so I was very excited to go! Unfortunately in those four years, 3 of the 4 mazes are still the same. Whilst the theming is still amazing in all the attractions (I don’t count The Invitation in this 😂), it is...

    Scarefest 2023

    In case anyone doesn't know, PANIC will be in the marquee building next to Spinball. It was all boarded up yesterday with 'Daz Games' all over the boards.

    Christmas 2023

    Based entirely off the ride line up, it's ok for families with young children. For myself, unless something rather spectacular is announced extra in terms of entertainment or light-trail, I will not be wasting money getting there when Chessington are managing to open their brand new area for...

    Oktoberfest 2023

    Oktoberfest feels quite bland this year, not entirely sure why.

    The Hotels: A Journey

    just booked EV lodge for £150 for the middle of Scarefest. Didn’t think that was too bad at all.

    Nemesis: Sub-Terra

    Just for a heads up, I just got on Sub Terra with ease and I’m a stocky guy. I think there has been a massive overreaction here.

    Ride Availability/Operations 2022-24

    Poor availability + School trips = recipe for disaster. I'm going tomorrow but purely for Sub Terra (If I can get on it...), Curse and to chill out. I've been to Towers that many times this season that I don't mind a chilled day. I can imagine if it's your only visit of the season though you'd...

    Nemesis: Sub-Terra

    I have heard that if you can fit on Wicker Man and Spinball fine then you will be ok on NST, is there any truth to this? I’m going on Tuesday and really don’t want to do a walk of shame. I’m not even that large but I’m bigger than your average person and a tad worried.

    Nemesis: Sub-Terra

    A few spots today. Stood on the observation platform and spotted the tank being moved back towards Sub Terra with a lovely new paint job!

    Nemesis: Sub-Terra

    I would personally expect this to launch alongside Mardi Gras. And perhaps an announcement tomorrow or Friday.

    2023: The Curse at Alton Manor

    Had my worst rides on Manor today 😞 Many effects not working (moving walls, hurse effect amongst the most noticeable), and I noticed a lot of natural light coming through that wasn’t there on previous rides. I really hope they keep on top of this. It would be such a shame if it wasn’t properly...
