A Thorpe Park Fright Nights to Remember!

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

With the event being absolutely RAMMED we prioritised mazes over anything else but we sadly missed one show and the Mawkin Meadow walkthrough but we still absolutely loved Fright Nights, further proving that Thorpe Park are leaps and bounds ahead of other Merlin parks currently!

[@Adam-eh1qd]

Which is what they wanted from the event, for it to look good for the press :) that is why Hyperia opened despite being shut for 14 operating hours and 30 hours in total to remove a stalled train that was likely caused by operator error rather than a mechanical issue based on how quickly the 2nd train was loaded and operating after the park shut to the general public yesterday. Perception is everything with Merin, the reality is different. Glad you had a good night though; video still gets a like regardless.

@@Adam-eh1qd Not necessarily the maze experiences were no different than normal visiting days (bar a smaller queue) but it would be nice to go again to compare, the only big difference were the food stalls / party in the conference bit

I absolutely laughed my head off all through that vlog. It was epic!

This is the Fright Nights video we were all waiting for 👏 Always the most honest and entertaining 👍

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

Thank you so much 🙏 can’t fault them on press night, but need to check out a normal night to make sure it wasn’t a one off in terms of maze quality just for the celebs / creators!

[@adamtrue7691]

the alton towers scarefest consists of people heading into the park and being genuinely SCARED & FRIGHTENED at the lack of investment, general decline of the park and how most of the coasters are down. I remember when Alton Towers Scare mazes were this good and then 15 years later we still have the same mazes... looks at tinys revenge...the attick.. **ok I'll go and take my chill pills now**

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

I agree I’m done with Towers for a bit, it’s just going backwards once again

I really hope Scarefest can take notes to improve their event to bring it up to Thorpe Parks level, Hopefully Compound is on the same level aa one of these newer Mazes.

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

Hmmm we shall see, budget cuts aplenty over at Towers

[@joshuadunn4294]

Great Vlog Sean 😊.

Fright nights really looks good this year, i’m going on the 12th. So excited 🤩

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

Have an amazing time!

[@En1ow]

same

[@En1ow]

Deadbeat looks a little underwhelming, do you think it met your expectations? I can't tell if it's better in person

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

I enjoyed it!

[@louiseking1756]

Looks like a really good event! Miles ahead of scarefest, but I do wonder what’s going to replace amity beach?

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

They’ve smashed it this year we even enjoyed Thorpe more than Tulleys this year which is mad!

[@helenstanhope600]

I'm going on the 5th this looks amazing

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

@@helenstanhope600 enjoy!

[@carlrobinson4843]

You know I don’t like the scare content but I will be popping on them to give you a like as your putting in the effort to make good content

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

Appreciate you still watching

[@DisneyMarkUK]

This looks a fun event, is everything we saw on all nights or was a lot of it just for press night?

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

The indoor party space / food vans won’t be but everything else will be

[@knightrider2738]

Thorpe park fright nights press night looks great. Did you enjoy it then

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

VERY much!

[@Skilzee31]

I saw several other content creators upload their review of thorpe park and kept scrolling. . . . . . . . And then you came along.

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

@@similarart1074 How it should be 😉 haha but genuinely they smashed it, other than putting the food outlets down that narrow street I genuinely had no other criticisms, the mazes are perfect for the Thorpe demographic and are miles ahead of anything Towers offers

[@alancooper6343]

It’s the same from merlin every year press night looks absolutely fantastic loads of jump scares loads of roaming actors then comes to the general public fright nights and its crap hardly any roaming actors hardly any jump scares and just crap in general. Great vlog from you tho as usual

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

For me other than the fancy bar / indoor area the mazes were similar in number of actors etc other than Lucifers which seemed to have more than my previous non press visits last year

[@ThrillNet]

Icl I think your intenee run through of Survival Games was just luck, as I know from previous years that it is a very consistent maze and I've seen vlogs from other creators who had pretty tame run throughs in comparison. Stitches is also inconsistent as there were barely any actors in my run through last year. Deadbeat looks decent tbf though it does look a bit tame. Tbh I'm most excited for Trailers and the new scenes (skipped that part as I don't want spoilers) as in general, that maze gives pretty good run throughs.

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

@@ThrillNet one day you’ll be positive 😂

[@ThrillNet]

@@LiftHillsandThrills I do like Fright Nights. It's one of my highlights of the season. I just don't appreciate going through a maze and seeing 5 actors in the space of 10 minutes. 😂 It's the atmosphere that makes that event!

[@Samlawson-lt5nw]

Taking inspiration from HHN is defo a good move for UK events.

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

Good prep for the incoming domination

[@CoastersandPop]

I really want a cheese toastie now - check out northern soul grilled cheese next time you’re in manchester

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

Will do!

[@joecandish3923]

Should Thorpe Park have more than 4 Mazes in your opinion, Knotts Scary Farm had 10 Scare Mazes anf Universal Studios Hollywood had 9 Mazes. I know Thorpe Park in 2018 had a lot of Scare Mazes but maybe with new management they coild be even more higher quality than 2018

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

I feel as though they could have more but at the same time you might lose maze quality (it is Merlin afterall). This is my favourite Fright Nights in a longgg time and we didn’t even see Mawkin Meadow we just didn’t have the time!
