 '''Scarefest''' is the flagship (or rather, ghostship) event at [[Alton Towers]] during the month of October when it's, surprise surprise, HALLOWEEN.
-The event is known to be immensely popular with [[TowersTimes|TSTers]] for it means dressing up, playing Halloween tricks on fellow members (i.e. ''BOO!!'') and re-riding many of the park's rides/rollercoasters in the dark. It also means the three Scare mazes are open so yay!

 This event usually ends up spending most of the budget for Alton Towers, usually on decorations from Poundland.

 [[Merlin Entertainments Ltd|Tussauds]] got a little bit bored after dealing with a [[Hex|discovery behind an ancient bookcase]] in the very early 00s, so they sent out a group representing the company to travel the world and bring back amusing things with them, as executives can get bored very easily. They had tried contacting [[John Wardley]] to come and entertain them, but he was too busy [[Air|trying to perfect flying for his new]] [[roller coaster]] with some plywood and chewing gum in HQ.
-The company group travelled the world aimlessly, until finding out about the amazing, frightening and spectacular [[Terenzi Horror Nights]] at [[Europa Park]] and so decided to check it out. It took Tussauds a while to get them out of Mackland because it was so easily mesmerising (It's the land of the [[Roland Mack|Roland]], what do you expect with the 'tache?), but after a while they managed to bring back the group by promising an installation of a secret sports/entertainment room on park, most likely hidden behind the random door around Oblivion's drop.

 After explaining what Europa was like with Terenzi creating a wholly spooky and fun experience, Tussauds decided to try out their own kind of haunted event, first naming it '''Halloween Spooktacular''' which was a very <s>typical</s> creative name indeed. This event involved hiring out all of the Halloween character costumes from the local costume shops, visiting every cheap shop for Halloween decorations to throw around the park and leaving the park open a bit later than usual so the enthusiasts can openly whore the roller coasters.
