5.00I saw a review on the front door about being scared initially and so glad they visited, this pursuaded me, they were spot on. What an incredible immersive experience, the staff/actors are all incredible, the attention to detail, set designs etc and story telling/costumes all just phenomenal. I was just amazed by it all. Well worth the £50. Just go you wont be dissappinted and I dont do scary so was the right level for me as I was really apprehensive, it was amazing!!!!! Thank you

5.00Great atmosphere, the actors and staff were brilliant throughout ! The plague doctor was very disturbing I think he was my favourite 🤣 Having been to most of the dungeons now I did worry it would become tiresome but I enjoyed every minute of it . The only thing I missed from my last visit was the maze part ( it’s about 6 years since I went ) I did really like that bit but it seems to have gone 😔 This is definitely the best experience out of all the dungeons Iv visited , I actually fancy doing the adult version now 😈 I wonder if the torturer will actually use any of the devices 😬😱🤣
Good event. Not too scary

5.00Interactive and fun. Not too scary. Participants not too out of comfort zone. All in good humour

4.00Definitely look for a deal as the prices online or on the door are crazy! We went as a family with our two boys aged 14 and 8. The actors were fantastic and the setting is great. My youngest left after room 5 as it was too scary for him. I would not recommend for children under 10. Very dark and in your face!!! I stayed with my 14 year old and we loved the rest of it. If you don’t like being selected then ask for a yellow sticker. We did and I am glad we did.
Amazing scary and funny experience

5.00Absolutely amazing experience. A combination of scary and funny. I didn't realise that it would be that interactive, which might bother some people,but it was fun/ scary to be put in the cage and then later summoned by the judge. I was with a small group of lovely people which made it more fun. The actors were incredible and every room held another suprise or scare. I was buzzing when I came out. Would highly recommend
Extremely emmersive, all inclusive, everyone involved. Took me into account ( bad back) .
