Tips & Advice

  • Bring a powerful torch, as head torches are discouraged to avoid blinding other participants.
  • Wear sensible, flat, gripped shoes and warm, layered clothing, as the location can be cold and has uneven surfaces.
  • Arrive on time and check in with the team using your booking name, as there are no printed tickets.
  • If you become scared, inform a team member immediately; there is a safe area available for you to rest.
  • Consider bringing hand sanitizer, as restroom facilities at some older locations may be basic.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens if I get scared during the event?

Every event has a safe area which is always lit. If you do become afraid and want to take time out you will be taken to the safe area until you are ready to resume the ghost hunt.

Are there toilets at every location?

There are toilets at all of our locations. However, whilst most of the location facilities are of a high standard some of our locations are abandoned buildings and the toilet facilities can be unsavoury. We therefore suggest that you bring hand sanitiser to all of our events for your own personal use.

Can I leave early if I want to?

If you wish to leave early you must let a team member know. You will be asked to leave during a convenient time such as in between group activities or during a break. This is so that the event is not disrupted by your leaving as car parks may need to be unlocked etc. You must let a team member know if you are leaving so that you can be removed from our fire register.

Do I need a torch?

Yes, you will need to bring your own torch. However, we prefer that head torches are not worn as they can blind other guests and cause accidents during the event.

What do I need to wear during an event?

We suggest that you warm wear layered clothing as some locations can be extremely cold whilst others are heated and can be quite warm. Flat, gripped shoes are mandatory as many of our locations are old buildings and have uneven surfaces. Also, some areas are outside where it can be wet and slippery.
