Scarefest 2022

There's at least one use of needless repetition, grammar and/or spelling errors or something generally nonsensical in literally every short paragraph of that press release.

Spooktacular stuff!

Grammar-wise it's spot-on, isn't it?

The attraction itself, however, sounds pretty poor.

We may be surprised though!

Given that Thorpe have a similar experience with the same supplier, I'm guessing that this was a Merlin decision? It sounds like Alton's Ents team have their hands tied a little with the lack of investment in scare mazes since the pandemic, which must be very frustrating, especially if you have lots of great ideas.

Scarefest is in gear 2 at the moment, hopefully, next year, it'll motor into gear 6 cos there are a few groups of people I'd like to take, but it's not happening with this line-up.
 
Every year we hope for a bigger Scarefest and every year it remains pretty static. Some years are a bit better than others, there might be a new maze or the loss of an attraction.

That said, given the events budgets over the last couple of years, youā€™d imagine this would be the best chance for it to actually grow significantly in scope; it appears not to have. Curious.
 
Not looking good for Invitation... heard from people who were on-park today and the other day that it's looking very unfinished, and a guy who might be the artistic director was sat outside it with a clipboard looking very stressed. Will it be ready for tomorrow? Not convinced.

Just tried to book but it hasn't worked. It's possible that it's not set up yet even though it's live.

It still says 0.00 after you select the number of tickets you need, and when I pressed the pay button the app closed itself.
 
Seems to be just the Invitation this problem is impacting, other mazes appear to be working ok.
