Tickets please – for the fright of your life!
For those who are feeling brave at Halloween, a thrilling ride awaits, on board the Severn Valley Railway’s Ghost Train services on Saturday 28, Monday 30 and Tuesday 31 October.
Definitely not for the faint-hearted, the adventure begins at a Halloween-themed Kidderminster station, before you make your way along the spooky platform to find your reserved compartment or table on the steam-hauled service.
As the train roars away into the dark, dark night you’ll want to hold on tight, as you pass through haunted stations on your way to Arley – the home of the living dead. Here, you’ll encounter all manner of ghoulish surprises. But beware. Things that go bump in the night might not be all outside the windows…
There’s a goodie bag for every child, and the experience last around 75 minutes. Departures are at 5.20pm, 6.10pm, 7.00pm and 7.50pm each evening.
For those aged 18+ only, the Scream Train ramps things up on the scary scale, departing from Kidderminster at 8.40pm each evening. Make sure you arrive in good time to take some Dutch courage in the King & Castle pub at Kidderminster station, then you should abandon all hope, as you’re transported away to…who knows what? And who can say if you’ll make it back to Kidderminster – ever! Don’t say you weren’t warned!
Both Ghost Train and Scream Train experiences must be pre-booked and it’s advised to secure your seats early. Places are limited and the Severn Valley Railway’s Halloween events always sell out fast. Book now at svr.co.uk , if you dare and don’t forget the Scream Train is for those aged 18+
