‘The sets look fantastic and we can promise a truly immersive horror experience. With a cast of 30 we are confident we can make all your nightmares come true. We are very excited to hear just how loud we can make our guests scream, cry and shout for their mum!’
Scare attractions are the UK’s fastest growing entertainment sector and have seen major innovations in the industry over the past 10 years. House of the Dead Ltd is bringing the very best in interactive horror experiences to Manchester.
House of the Dead measures 6,200sq feet and stretches over two floors. It will take 40 minutes to walk through.
