AN EVENT not for the faint of heart is coming to Gwrych Castle.
Escape Alive, a fully immersive Halloween castle tour featuring "scary surprises and terror lurking around every shadowy corner", is coming to the sprawling site that is in the process of being restored.
A spokesperson for Escape Alive said: "The truly terrifying experience will take place at Gwrych Castle this October. Gwrych Castle is an enchanting gothic ruin on the picturesque North Wales coastline, with spectacular sea views and impressive architecture. Many will be familiar with the castle as it was the location for ITV’s first ever UK-based I'm A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! And that makes it the perfect creepy location for this brand new, unique Halloween horror event, which opens Saturday, October 21 for 11 nights of scares.
"Customers will be able to choose from family-friendly sessions earlier in the evening, perfect for a half term day out, or if you’re brave enough, you can pick adult only (14 plus) after-dark sessions when things get really scary!
"The event doesn’t end there," the spokesperson added.
