Mazes

Friargate Foundry *New for 2024*

He’s always been there, hidden, watching, observing, documenting your scare level, the volume of your screams, manufacturing the scenarios you fear the most. From the very beginning in the days of Deranged, inside Bunker 13, and the House that Drew Breath, he was there, forever locked in his own battle of trying to outdo himself year after year to ramp up the terror.
You believed these rooms you walk through each and every Halloween were created by the venue or park you visited but you were wrong, so very wrong! Each room, each maze, each themed attraction was born from the sick and twisted mind of The Operator. He designed visions of hell for you to experience and now the time has come to step inside and live your worse terror once again and discover what is still yet to come
The nightmares you’ve faced before, the nightmares you will face today and the nightmares you are still yet to face await you. Past, present, future, they are here inside the factory, colliding in a sonic boom of horror that will leave you with nowhere to turn and nowhere to run
The building has existed for as long as anyone can remember, standing alone in the woods, occasionally stumbled upon by the unsuspecting hiker. Its origins are lost to time but we know it sprung into life in 1992. What was born inside that factory was brought to life in Scotland. From there rooms were invented for Blackpool in 1998. The foundry billowed smoke as the Operator conjured up nightmarish visions for Staffordshire and Staines in 2002 and, well, the rest is history. The ball was rolling and manufacturing horror for the masses became the norm each and every October. The Operator was forever creating, seeing you scream but you never seeing him, finding out what makes you scared and building new versions of terror each and every year.
Step inside and travel in time to the past, to the future, to the edge of sanity itself. It’s 5 years of fear at Doncaster Fear Factory and you ain’t ever seen anything like this before. The operator awaits you, Friargate Foundry is open, he is in there and he knows what you fear the most!

The Chasm *Final Year*

Over the last month, we have recorded changes within The Chasm mines. A team of miners were sent underground to work, the Chasm began collapsing, all escaped to safety...except one. Dominions soldiers were ordered to go down and find them but unfortunately did not return. We fear that they are buried and trapped under the fallen rubble and debris. That or something more sinister has taken a hold and now has power over The Chasm and the people, that take the risk of entering. Your mission is to explore the deepest, darkest depths of The Chasm mines, to locate our colleagues, bringing them to safety alive and well. Before The Chasm collapses in on itself.
Expect darkness, falling debris, altered sensory perception, flashing lights, confined spaces, sharp turns, scenes of gore and horror.
Who knows what may be lurking, nay waiting for you in the darkness? The Chasm is not for the faint hearted, so please take care before undertaking your mission

Crackle Hill: The Summoning

Paranormal investigator Jamie Castle has finally made it to the no.1 Haunted site in the UK: Crackle Hill. He needs an elite team of specialist to hold a séance in the horrific house in the hopes of summoning none other than Agatha Stone. Are you brave enough to join the hunt?
In the early 1900s, Crackle Hill was home to Agatha Stone who was known to locals to be involved in Devil worship and as a leader of the Occult. Agatha, driven mad by exile, swore an oath of power, making the ultimate sacrifice and savagely killing her own children.
The silence on the Hill became eerie and it was several weeks later when locals discovered the bodies of her children buried in the floor boards, but Agatha was never to be seen again. Some say on a quiet night you can still hear the screams of the children, taken so violently, pass on the breeze.
Since that moment not a soul has entered Crackle Hill for fear that Agatha’s possessed spirit still haunts the halls waiting for her next sacrifice…
Could you be the next unwilling victim?
