The award-winning Newsham Scream Park returns for its third season this Halloween, with four brand-new scare attractions in Liverpool.
Previously unseen parts of the building will be used for Season 3.
AtmosFEAR! are one of Europe’s biggest scare attraction companies and are designing each blood-curdling experience for Asylum Entertainment Limited.
There’s a brand-new Horror Selfie Museum, plus more street entertainment, stage acts and live music, a huge food court and licensed bars.

This Halloween, Newsham Scream Park returns to Liverpool for season three. The currently unused Newsham Park Building will be decorated to create a sense of dread that will ooze from the walls, where ominous shadows lurk in the gloom, and where nothing is ever quite what it seems, a palpable fear envelops all who dare enter.

The Victorian Grade II Listed Newsham Park Building, a former Orphanage in the 19th Centrury and a Hospital in the 20th Century, was designed by one of the UK's most acclaimed architects, Liverpool-born Alfred Waterhouse.

Steeped in fascinating history and in recent years enjoying some folklore to keep the building alive, the Newsham Park Building is beloved by thrill seekers, ghost hunters and those with a penchant for dabbling in the dark arts. And this Halloween, the stunning and vast building will welcome guests to enjoy its annual horror attraction.

Running from Wednesday the 1st of October with dates until Friday the 31st of October, Asylum Entertainment Limited is back with four new scare mazes and experiences, designed by terror maestros AtmosFEAR! Scare Entertainment. The new experiences at the attraction include Victorian Psycho, Witch Hunt, Phantasma’s Hall of Freaks and Larst Resort, which are debuting this October, as Newsham Scream Park elevates the terror for season three even higher, with truly skin-crawling frights, devilish freaks and all out terror lurking in each corner. It’s the ultimate setting for a night of adrenalin-fuelled horror.

The four scare mazes inspired by traditional horror motifs and folklore are:

Victorian Psycho: Buried in the rotting bowels beneath Newsham Park festers a labyrinth of gore, where madness drips from the walls and death clings to the air like smoke.
Witch Hunt: Beyond the twisted trees of Rainford Forest lies Gallows Bray - a once-protected village under the spell of the coven of Isobel Robey. All was well, until The Inquisition of the Crows arrived…
Phantasma’s Hall Of Freaks: Phantasma’s freakshow rolled into Newsham Park in 1967 - invited to entertain, but remembered for terror.
Larst Resort: Doktor Viktor Larst, Director of Care, welcomes you to his namesake retirement complex - Larst Resort - a luxury facility that promises lifelong care throughout your golden years.

Jason Karl, Creative Director for AtmosFEAR! Scare Entertainment, said: “Designing Newsham Scream Park at the UK’s most unique Halloween destination venue presents us with almost unlimited options across multiple buildings, floors and in hundreds of rooms and passageways.”

He added: “For season three we are bringing four new scare attraction experiences which are all new and utilise parts of the building that haven’t been seen during our previous two seasons. Having already scooped two awards over the past couple of years, we are ready for the challenge of season three and to bring the screams to Newsham Scream Park once again.”

For season three, there’s a brand-new Horror Selfie Museum. Each scene is packed with eerie props, chilling atmosphere, and the perfect lighting for a scream-worthy selfie:

Dracula’s Crypt.
Death Chamber.
Alcatraz Prison.
The Voodoo Hovel.

Plus there’s new street entertainment, stage acts and live music, alongside the huge food court and licensed bars, plus tarot readers, mystics, fortune tellers and more to explore at one of the UK's biggest horror-themed attractions.
