About The Event
Treat yourself to a hair-raising hike around some of the City's scary streets and historic haunts.Gather your bravest ghouls, or go lone if you dare. Creepy dungeon keepers at The Oval will meet, greet, and shock. Once you escape, there's ghostly looped routes with zombie rest stops and, if you manage to get back in one piece, there’s a macabre medal, a glass of the Devil’s fizz, and some horrific hot food and drink waiting for you.
