Where: The Bakehouse in Darwen
After winning awards for best newcomer at Scarecon (yes that is a real event), Fear Factory is back in Darwen with two paranoia-inducing mazes for you and your mates to tip-toe around as you try and hide behind each other. The first maze is Mr Blooms Haunted House, a house hiding a dark web of debauchery, torture and bloodcurdling massacres. Maze two is a rather unassuming bread factory, where after dark, the chimney smoke turns black and a putrid smell fills the air. Discover the secrets of the factory at your own risk, just don't say you weren't warned!

Satan’s Slammer is a house of demonic correction, a labyrinthine prison for the diabolically insane. Their crimes: human sacrifice, experimentation, cannibalism, and death by dark arts.

You’ll laugh, you’ll scream.. you’ll need spare underpants (prison issue naturally), but be warned what you encounter will drive you to the very edge of sanity – prepare to meet the face of pure evil as you travel the Devil’s own dungeons!

Where: Raze The Roof Indoor Play And Laser Tag in Penryn
Whilst a Halloween scare event at a Lazer Tag arena may not turn a lot of heads, this is no kid’s party. For 3 nights Raze will transform into an insane asylum experience, featuring live scare actors, corridors with non-stop twists and turns, and jumps around every corner! The Asylum has been testing a serum on its inmates to see if their twisted and evil minds can be altered. However, it did not do what was intended, the serum enhanced the psychopathic tendencies of the inmates turning them into zombies. Most of them have escaped their bonds and murdered the staff, and it's up to you to find the antidote and save the world, pretty wicked eh?
