25 horrifying photos from Scare City at the abandoned Camelot theme park in Charnock Richard

This gallery is not for the faint hearted!

Lancashire’s abandoned Camelot theme park has been transformed into a series of terrifying worlds this Halloween.

Scare City 2026 is set to opens it doors at the derelict theme park site in Charnock Richard tonight.

Eight new horror zones have been created at the site off Park Hall Road, staged in areas previously deemed out-of-bounds to visitors.

From a blood-splattered Victorian-era barbershop and demonic orphanage to an abandoned asylum overrun by monstrous maniacs - it’ll be no surprise that organisers warn this year’s frights are expected to be “the most disturbing in Scare City's history”.

Scare City 2026 opens on September 26, with tickets available through the event's website.
