Last year, Newsham Scream Park in Liverpool turned Halloween upside down and inside out. Three truly terrifying scare mazes wound through the historic and haunted building, with scare-seekers flocking from all over the UK and making it the new home for Halloween, and for 2025, the scream park is back with four new scare experiences, which will wind through the historic and haunted hospital’s claustrophobic corridors and dilapidated dormitories.
This Halloween is set to reach a new dimension of terror between October 1 and 31, with previously hidden parts of the building used for the first time. This year, the team are creating a bigger, scarier and even more intense experience for anyone who dares to venture into Newsham Scream Park this autumn.
Further new additions for 2025 include the Horror Selfie Museum, new street entertainment, stage acts and live music, a huge food court and licensed bars, plus tarot readers, mystics, fortune tellers and more.
This year, visitors can explore four scare mazes – Victorian Psycho, Witch Hunt, Phantasma’s Hall Of Freaks and Larst Resort. Each experience is themed, providing guests some unique chills and thrills.
Steeped in folklore, the Victorian Grade II listed Newsham Park Hospital was the site of a Seamen’s orphanage, hospital and asylum. Narrow passages lead into shadowy basements and staircases descend into darkness, where shadowy spaces link to the past and a chill lingers in each compressed space. Wheelchairs, trolleys and machinery from decades ago are strewn around, whilst echoes linger longer throughout the eerie building.
Long since abandoned to the elements, Newsham Park Hospital is a mecca for ghost hunters and spectral thrill seekers. It is regularly cited as one of the UK’s most haunted buildings, stalked by those who used to govern it or be its unfortunate guests, and welcomes back Newsham Scream Park for season two.
Jason Karl, Creative Director for AtmosFEAR! Scare Entertainment, said: “Designing Newsham Scream Park at the UK’s most unique Halloween destination venue presents us with almost unlimited options across multiple buildings, floors and in hundreds of rooms and passageways.
For season three we are bringing four new scare attraction experiences, which are all new and utilise parts of the building that haven’t been seen during our previous two seasons. Having already scooped two awards over the past couple of years, we are ready for the challenge of season three and to bring the screams to Newsham Scream Park once again.”
