Hatton Country World is to host a brand-new spooky evening event called 'Pumpkin Hollow' which will take place over five nights this October.

Visitors will have to weave through the creepy cabins with live actors as they make their way to the pumpkin field to pick their choice in the dark to take home.

There will also be a choice of classic horror films at the drive-in cinema experience with two showings being held each day.

The films will include Saw, Friday 13th, Hocus Pocus, Scream, Rocky Horror, Beetle Juice, The Addams Family, Nightmare on Elm Street, Ghostbusters, and Final Destination.

Screenings will be held at 6.30pm and 9.30pm on each of the nights - 7, 14, 21, 28 and 31 October.

There will also be live music, as well as the Bewitching Bar selling alcoholic drinks and street food selling fish and chips and other snacks including toasted marshmallows.

Although children are admitted, this event is primarily aimed at adults, and it is not recommended to bring young children along to this event.

Those of a nervous disposition are advised to take the alternative route to the Pumpkin field bypassing the creepy cabins.

Johnnie Arkwright, owner of Hatton Country World, said: "We're delighted to host this brand new and alternative 'Autumn Night Out' where you can pick and buy pumpkins by moonlight, watch a classic horror movie, listen to live music, and enjoy a drink and street food with friends.

"This is Halloween on a whole different level, whatever you have planned this spooky season, this should be top of your list."

Tickets are available online priced at £5 each or £6 on the gate. Once the pumpkins have been picked, the till team will use size rings to determine the price which will range from 50p to £10.
