The Darkening

The Darkening is back, bigger and better than ever!

With brand new terrifying effects this critically acclaimed experience will give you a terrifying Halloween experience you will never forget!

It’s a ghost tour, ghost hunt, magic show and fright night all rolled into one! Not only will you hear some spooky stories from the estate’s ghostly past, but the spirits will also manifest themselves through magic, illusion, suggestion, and trickery!

A buffet supper is included, with the opportunity to experience some mind reading and magic at your table.

The 2025 Halloween dates have been reduced in capacity from last year so the experience is more intense and personal, and remember, all the Halloween dates last year sold out so don't wait to get your tickets!

⭐ "A stunningly engaging show ending in a terrifying climax that left us all screaming." – ScareTOUR

⭐ "5 out of 5! If you’re a fan of the supernatural, it doesn’t get much better than this!" – Creepy Attractions
