Horror Mania scare maze returns to Cambridgeshire

Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 26 Oct, 11:31 · Archive

Horror Mania, claiming the UK's longest continuous scare maze, has reopened at Skylark Garden Centre in Cambridgeshire after relocating from its previous venue.

Horror Mania has returned to Cambridgeshire at Skylark Garden Centre in Wimblington after the event was cancelled earlier this year. The popular horror attraction had been held at Hinchingbrooke House in Huntingdon, which decided to no longer host it.

Robert Gough, director of Horror Mania, said the team had worried the event would not continue following the cancellation, as it required the right venue. The scare attraction claims to be the UK's longest continuous maze and attracts thousands of horror fans. The new location took two months to build.

The event features over 100 actors bringing various horror themes to life across multiple themed marquees. It uses loud music, flashing strobe lights, fog and unexpected jumps around corners to create scares. The attraction features scenarios including an Egyptian mummy and a zombie Taylor Swift character, designed to unsettle visitors despite their awareness that the frights are not real.
