The James Alexander Building @ Nottingham reviews by real event-goers

Review of Outbreak Nottingham Scarefest

Really enjoyed this, good fun & the actors were brilliant and engaging. It could have done with being about 10 minutes longer and some unexpected jump scares coming out at you. The atmosphere, building & effort made to create it and the decor were very good. Let's hope they can make this bigger and better for next year. We didn't bother with the fairgrounds, but played 18 holes of the multi level crazy golf, which was good fun and reasonably priced 😊.

The venue had the ability to be amazing, with levels and more interaction with the story.
But it was £25 for a 15 minute walk through. Save your money and go XtremeScream.

Racist comments made by one of the actors, emailed scarefest and no response or apology

The scare fest was average. Felt like it was over priced for what it was. First part is good but the rest was just walking through a walkway and nothing much else. Very flat and lacked atmosphere.

It was fun to go through the scare maze. Using the derelict building was very atmospheric! The actors did a good job of setting the scene. If you allow yourself to play along, it is a scary thrill!

We feel that more actors were needed especially in the outside areas.... Lots of missed opportunities whilst walking from building to building.
The actors that were there were very good, the building was absolutely amazing although more darkness needed perhaps. It's a shame that the fair wasn't on as I love pretty lights and think that would have added to the atmosphere a lot. We did enjoy the actual maze with the exception of needing more actors

Review of Outbreak Nottingham Scarefest

No rides was on last night apart from 1. No time to finish my golf as they started packing away at 8.30pm. The venue don't close until 10pm so nit sure what that is all about. Would not go again.

Review of Outbreak Nottingham Scarefest

It was good for a first attempt sham fair rides and stalls weren't open on arrival or even upon leaving

Review of Outbreak Nottingham Scarefest

when we arrived it looked good but upon going in the fairground hardly anything was open, we arrived at 6.35pm. Service for food and drink was slow. Golf was good but they shut it at 8.00pm so could only play the 18 hole. The outbreak experience was ok, didn't feel there was enough actors and defo could of had more scare opportunities. Didn't feel it was worth £25. Was a new experience though.

This was a good but very tame experience, I think the build up and unknown is scarier than the event itself, we left feeling a little bit like, was that it? The location/venue is great but we felt this could have been better executed, there were not many actors at all and there were points we felt that more could have been done to make this scarier. If you're easily scared and want som**hing that isn't too terrifying, this is the event for you. If you're a real thrill seeker and have been to events such as Twin Lakes and Alton Towers, I would say avoid for the price :/
