Saturday 31st October – Into the Twilight: 2pm – 5.20pm (last train) As daylight fades, the station slips into something far more sinister. Join us for our Into the Twilight services – a chilling journey where the Haunted DMU prowls the line and the ghouls grow bolder with every passing minute.

This is our full scare experience: atmospheric, spooky, and packed with jumpy moments. Perfect for thrill-seekers and brave souls. Will you make it back in one piece… or will the spirits claim you for their own?

Sunday 1st November – Spooky but Sweet: 10.30am – 3pm (last train) If you prefer your Halloween with more giggles than gasps, Sunday is your day. Enjoy a gentler ghostly adventure aboard the Haunted DMU, with playful frights and friendly spooks.

For an even softer experience, hop aboard the Wizard’s Express – a magical, relaxed ride perfect for younger visitors or those who prefer enchantment over eerie encounters.

Ride one, ride both – it’s entirely up to you.
