Work has begun on building a huge Haunted street set in Southport town centre as part of Southport BID’s annual Spooky Southport Halloween Festival!
The purpose built, hyper real haunted Victorian street is being created in the town centre. Visitors and families will be able along the street, wander past rickety fences and up knock-on life-size doors and windows to see who is hiding behind. Along the way they will meet all manner of spooky characters all out to cause spook and cause mischief.
This is the fifth year for the annual Halloween Festival. Last year’s haunted maze and Halloween themed pop up performances saw thousand’s visit the town centre over the half term to enjoy the interactive events on offer. The four day festival will see a few extra pop up surprises along the way with great events and offers put on by businesses throughout the town centre.
“The haunted street is something we have never done before and we are working with a great, innovative team to deliver it. It will be a huge and exciting installation, with professional actors providing brilliant treats and frights, that will appeal to all ages and families” says BID Event Coordinator, Sarah Rodriguez
“Spooky Southport has grown in popularity each year, with visitors coming in from throughout the region and thousands talking about the event on social media. The maze proved popular last year and we can’t wait to see the haunted street come to life!”
The event is running from Saturday the 26th October until Tuesday the 29th, 11am – 3pm. The street is free to visit and suitable for all ages (with under eight’s at the parents discretion). For more details visit spookysouthport.com or follow @spookysouthport.
