Darktober at M&Ds Theme Park

Don’t forget, M&D’s Scotland’s Theme Park at Strathclyde Park has unveiled details of its new immersive horror experience as it celebrates Darktober, a month of seasonal spooky activities!

The ‘Freak Show’, presented by Outbreak, centres around a mysterious circus that has appeared within the depths of Scotland’s Theme Park. There are rumours that the hypnotist, The Great Koringos, is warping minds and that audience members are disappearing.

Visitors to the attraction will find themselves immersed in the story, quickly becoming part of the show.

Featuring a chilling outdoor setting, colourful horror characters and lots of scares, the award-winning fright show will take place on various dates and times until Thursday 31st October.

Matthew Taylor, Director, M&D’s Scotland’s Theme Park said, “Our horror experiences are always unforgettable and the Freak Show is quite terrifying. Just make sure to bring a pal to hang on to!”

Darktober provides the opportunity for visitors to ride in the dark on a selection of outdoor rides, such as The Twister, Rip Tide, Dancing Galleons and many more, with a special Darktober wristband enabling people access to the rides as many times as they like on the date of their visit.

The ‘Freak Show’ is only suitable for 15 year olds and above or 12 year olds if accompanied by a paying adult. Online tickets for The Freak Show are from £14.50 or you can purchase a combined ticket for the Freak Show and Darktober from £23.45.

During October younger visitors to M&D’s can also enjoy the Pumpkin Outdoor Festival which runs on various dates up until Sunday 27th October. The event includes storytelling by Folksy Theatre featuring Farmer Pottington and the Perfect Pumpkin.

Visitors can pick their own pumpkin, enjoy the Pumpkin Trail and take part in the Halloween Themed Game, with prizes for everyone. In addition, they can experience a ride on board the Pumpkin Express land train and take part in making Halloween arts and crafts.

Prices range from £8.95, which includes a hot drink or £11.50 which includes a pumpkin to take home.
