Hi
I have never been there, but I believe it is a haunted mansion type of place.

A friend of mine did it. she said it was really quite scarey with people jumping out at you.
Its not closed or run down, it is pretty scary though.
Its basically a walk through attraction which is very dark and spooky, a sort of castle dungeon type theme if I remember correctly, There are lots of scary rooms with actors jumping out and generally scaring the living daylights out of you, It was really good fun but my wife says she will never go through again.
I also would not recommend it for small kids under nine or ten

Yeah it's okay.
Quite cheap, go in the evening when there is more people there.
It's quite good fun.

I remember when it 1st opened.
We were walking down I Drive and a character dressed like the grim reaper was coming toward us.When we met he suddenly thrust out his hand with a flyer in it and said "We`re dying to have you" That was enough for my 2 boys, no chance of following up that invitation. He scared them silly.
There's an old thread here (http://www.thedibb.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?s=&forumid=52&threadid=28128) about it.

This sounds good, i may give it a go
btw the website is still offering tickets so it must be open???
I did it last December and it was open then. It was ok, but then I guess I've been spoilt with Halloween Horror Nights. You can get buy one get one free vouchers for it which makes it much better value.

Yeah I agree with this one. Definately recommend it. It is a good laugh and parts of it really are scary. We went the day after the Halloween Horror Nights which is why it wasn't as good for us.
However I am ashamed to admit , when I saw the clowns I lost it and starting crying and shut my eyes for about 5 minutes and refused to open them... yes I am 25 if anyone was wondering!!!!

It was brilliant when we did it, London Dungeon was a walk in the park after here. DW says never again.
You definitely need brown trousers and bicycle clips LOL

Always wanted to this but in the past nobody else would come with me. Next year though DD has said shes up for it (she'll be 18).
Got more chance of plaiting fog than getting DW anywhere near it!!
