2017 SEASON

The inaugural season on Fear Island presented two contrasting scare entertainment experiences.

Dark Water was a scare maze over two levels with underwater effects, a crawl space and featuring a sensory-deprived zone.  A theatrically presented narrative of ghost pirates, sunken treasure and a cursed galleon placed guests into an experience which was the first of its kind for Fantasy Island.

Psycho Mansion was an overlay experience set in an existing ‘spook house’ structure but with live performers and special effects added.  A mechanical simulated lift, moving floors and a story of a cannibalistic family made guests scream and laugh in equal measure.  A cleverly managed PR campaign saw Bairstow Eves team up with Fantasy Island to present the mansion as ‘for sale’ which garnered considerable media exposure, firmly placing Fear Island as a theme park success story.

2018 SEASON

Following a successful first season, Fear Island increased the offer with three scare attractions and one stage show in 2018.

Temple of Terror was a blacklight scare maze with multiple routes of navigation meaning not all guests would endure the same experience.  Set in an undergound Mayan temple the characters, costumes, effects and sets were all designed for ultra-violet light, presenting a unique and unusual aesthetic.

Psycho Mansion 2 – Possessed! presented a continuation story but with added characters, new physical effects and personalisation techniques to plus the guest experience.

Laugh-out-loud humour and impact scares were combined inside CarnivHELL – a scare maze that was an instant hit with families, and which presented a colourful and riotous story of an old travelling carnival.

Fear Island Phantoms was a stage show designed with younger guests in mind.  Dance, song and interactivity were key in this 15-minute Halloween ‘pantomime’.
