Skelvin's Spooky Storytime -  2013

As the nights draw in, what better way to rest your weary legs then to pull up a hay bail and get cosy ready for a fun story.

With so many Spooky Stories to pick from, which one will Skelvin pick to share with all his friends?

Attraction History

Skelvin's Spooky Storytime - 2014 Skelvin first started sharing his spooky stories for the 2011 Scarefest. The attraction was introduced as part of Franklyn's Freaky Farm and Skelvin made his home in a sheltered part of what had once been the queue for the park's Ice Rink.

The attraction was a popular diversion for the youngest members of the family, so in 2012 the park introduced a summertime version introduced by Squirrel Nutty in the same spot.

In 2013 Skelvin moved, along with the rest of the children's Scarefest attractions, to Fountain Square to become part of Franklyn's new Freaky Funzone. During the following years Skelvin made his home in a makeshift turret to spread his Spooky Tales. That was up until 2015, when the Funzone moved to the end of Towers Street and Skelvin got upgraded to be a mainstage attraction, now appearing on the Trick or Treat Stage.

Skelvin did not get chance to tell his stories in 2021, but looks like he could return for 2022.
