Margate: Screamland at Dreamland will be the biggest and scariest yet for Halloween in Kent in 2017

The horrorfest for adults, Screamland, will return to Dreamland for a third year this Halloween and promises to be the biggest and scariest yet.

There will be six scare mazes over six nights when the new-look Margate amusement park hosts the event on selected nights from Friday, October 20, to Tuesday, October 31.

A plethora of scares await with sideshows set to thrill and haunt only the toughest of visitors. The fear factor has been increased as the new mazes and disorientating experiences include vision-blocking hoods and area that visitors have to crawl through.

Visitors can even book a live and spooky seance, which will be held in the Victorian folly building.

The experiences include the scariest, The Brotherhood, featuring the eerie order of monks who once resided on the Dreamland site, practicing archaic rituals and rights passed down through the centuries.

The Legend of Crank Jack has a scare factor of 3/5 and features the urban myth of Crank Jack, whose eerie rhyme should never be said out loud when turning the handle of a Jack in the box – dare to say it and face the horrific consequences.
