Fright Night. Fright Right.

Nothing beats a scare prank that sends a fully grown adult into a nervy b. Or renders children mute for life. Isn’t that what family Halloween was all about?

The family that scares together, scars together.

Right? Because if you can’t bond over someone pretending to be a serial killer running around your house and fake murdering you one by one, how are you ever going to get through a weekend at Centre Parcs?

Yup, when it comes to Halloween, I’ve always been a firm believer in the lairier, the scarier. And of course, make it a family tradition.

“The kids? Get them dressed up as your favourite fictional killers early on. Remember: you’re a veteran, you won’t be scared.”

When it comes to the next generation of scarers, start them young. Remember: it won’t always go to plan. So move it along.

Get them dressed up as your favourite fictional killers early on. Remember: you’re a veteran, you won’t be scared.

As time progresses, bring more character to their scare tactics. And their costumes.

The quirkier.

The better.

Ready for the next level?

By now, you and the kids and the whole family have got a blood lust for Fright Season. Maybe, just maybe, you’re ready for the next level.

Out of home.
Into the dark, dark fright night.
Going immersive.

But don’t beat yourselves up if you don’t get things just right. It can be hard to nail those scare notes, consistently.

Pranktice makes perfect, scarers. Ghoul out there and enjoy yourselves.

But probably best not to use bathroom stuff when you get into character as a zombie. And they don’t have tails.
