We were very kindly invited to Xtreme Scream Park this year on Halloween night to check out a couple of new mazes including the award-winning Blutlust maze that I sadly missed back in 2024 and the brand new for 2025 maze, Spores.
Halloween would be the busiest night of the year and the park had kindly given up fast tracks so that we could review the entire experience, get inside all the mazes and deliver the most thorough and honest review we could on a crazy night.
Whist this article was originally going to be a maze review piece we just had to pivot on this occasion because the fast track was arguably the best fast track I’ve used at any event I’ve been to anywhere in the world.
Queues were manic all evening, I’m talking 40 minutes+ for every single maze but with one flash of the fast pass we walked down a dedicated queue and walked straight into the batching for the maze. Not hanging around for even 5-10 minutes like we did at Halloween Horror Nights with our fast tracks over there, oh no. We were batched immediately into the mazes on a sold out night at Xtreme Scream Park.
This fast pass is hands-down the most efficient and incredible way to enjoy your evening on the busiest nights. The only issue with buying a fast pass is that you may get there and the event may not be as busy as anticipated and then it becomes a waste of money so that’s the risk you have to take.
Also, batching may have been brilliant during Halloween night and this is certainly not an article saying you’ll skip the queues instantly every single time, we are just reviewing our experience and I could not fault it what so ever.
What I could fault at the event though was the lack of actors within some of the mazes.
Xtreme Scream Park has some of the most detailed and wonderful scare mazes in the United Kingdom and you’re walking through them for a solid 5-10 minutes per mazes rather easily but many rooms on this particular visit were so quiet compared to our normal runthroughs of old.
Halloween night is THE busiest night of the year for scare events and we were walking through numerous empty rooms and whilst incredible to look at just weren’t scary in the slightest and when we did encounter an actor they simply stood there, no shouting, no movement, they just stood there… creepily watching you pass them by.
Xtreme Scream was not ‘extreme’ on this particular evening but the fast pass was absolutely bloody wonderful and I highly recommend you looking into prices for them when Xtreme Scream returns again in 2026.
