Once Upon A Nightmare 2026

Once Upon A Nightmare 2026 is part of the programme at Lotherton, the Edwardian hall and estate at Aberford near Leeds. It is made with Breeze.

"Once Upon a Nightmare is a walk-through scare experience set across the estate’s gardens and woodlands."

What to expect:

• After dark, Saturday 24 October to Sunday 1 November 2026
• "This immersive experience features live scare actors, soundscapes, and lighting effects designed to unsettle and surprise."
• "It’s designed with families in mind, but isn’t suitable for under 9s or anyone who dislikes spooky surprises."
• "Expect a mix of tension, suspense, and Halloween thrills that build as you move through the grounds."
• "The path ahead twists through shadows, lit only by the flicker of lanterns."
• Walking outdoors through gardens and woodland; booking required
