MINIMUM AGE IS 16 (UNDER 18’s MUST BE ACCOMPANIED BY A PARTICIPATING/PAYING ADULT). THE EVENT
Nothe of the Living Dead combines jump scares and escape dungeon-style challenges and puzzles in an hour-long experience that sees participants take on a chilling quest to save the world from an undead takeover.
The event, a fundraising collaboration between local charities Island Community Action (ICA), the Nothe Fort, and EPIC Games Dorset, takes place at the Nothe Fort – voted one of the UK’s spookiest locations. The event is now in its sixth year and has become a firm favourite with horror enthusiasts across the South West and beyond.
TESTIOMNIALS
"First time going and it was amazing. My heart was racing through fear and excitement, I loved all the challenges. It was bloody scary but fun at the same time, definitely booking up next year. Great value for money and raising money for a great charity.”
“I’d highly recommend this event; I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. Fantastic effort by everyone involved.”
“I’ve done this event every year, and it keeps on getting better. The jump scares are great, the challenges are always clever and fun, and no matter how often you do it, you still get nervous. Love the whole thing, and it’s raising money for some great local charities.”
THE 2024 CHALLENGE
Dorset, a picturesque blend of countryside, coastline, and chocolate box cuteness…or so you thought!!!
When Ronald Dump gets caught chomping down on a neighbour’s pet chihuahua, he fears that the odds of him taking back the reins of US power are shrinking fast. In fear for his future, Dump consults the mystical book of Durdle Knobs, where he finds a chapter entitled ‘He Who Seekeths Power.’ Contained in the text is an ancient ritual from Dorsetshire, England, that appears to give the reader the awesome power of time travel.
Wanting to go back to the period when he last ruled, Dump foolishly follows the ritual, placing eight precious runes in a circle at his feet and chanting the ancient text aloud.
But he really should have concentrated more on his Latin classes at school because the ritual’s literal translation is ‘Raising Dorset’s dead through time.’ The silly gurner has only gone and sucked himself and the dead into 2024 Weymouth.
Now, deep within the Nothe’s dark tunnels, the runes are scattered far and wide, and Dump is dazed and confused, surrounded by a host of ravenous zombies from every century of Dorset’s past. These dastardly creatures are set on one thing only, escaping the tunnels and grabbing themselves a fresh buffet of juicy locals.
Only one hope remains – a group of scientists from TimeFlight Industries, world leaders in time travel research. They’ve been flown in to gather the runes and reverse the spell, and they desperately need support.
Have you got the courage and wisdom to help in their quest – to take on the tunnels, fight the hungry hordes, gather the runes, and reverse the spell? If the answer's yes, then grab yourself a ticket for the best Halloween Scarefest this side of Salem!
