Fear Fields - Review

Located at Thornton Hall Country Park, near Skipton in North Yorkshire, Fear Fields, was a new drive thru scare experience, which replaced the Scream Fields scream park which had to be cancelled due to Coronavirus. As a first year event, the team behind the event should be proud of what they achieved, as it was one of the strongest things this reviewer has done all year!

Obviously we shall start off with the safety of the event, due to the UK currently being in unprecedented times.  All guests are in their cars for the entirety of the event, which meant that there was no chance of getting close to the actors. For the whole 45 minutes of the experience, we felt totally safe whilst being totally terrified for completely different reasons! Despite the long drive to get there, it really was good value for money!

The event had clearly been well planned and we could see how much thought had gone into the setup of the route around the venue, including the entrance and exit to the event. Whilst waiting to be dispatched into the pre-show, we were attacked by a couple of zombies, which was a great build up to the start of the event! The actors were cowering around the car, even when we were showing our entry tickets to the staff!

From there, we drove into a hugely themed tent, where there were lights, mist and sound effects. They all turned off after a couple of minutes and we were made to watch a short video preview on a large screen of what was going to happen during the drive thru. It really set the scene for what we were about to experience. Once directed, we drove out of the tent and onto our first real scene (of a total of about 7). Each individual scene was heavily decorated with different horror themes, such as a graveyard, a hospital, and a circus.

The acting quality in each of these themed areas were absolutely fantastic. Some were aggressive, which is what many scare enthusiasts appreciate, but other actors were tamer and more unnerving. This was great, as it showed the diversity in the style of scares and performance. Even so, we got a lot of jump scares throughout the event, which we think is the fear of being trapped in your car and having nowhere to go to get away!

Overall, we had a great time at Fear Fields. It is very different to most scare attractions and as such made for a great evening's entertainment. If you’re a scare enthusiast or a fan of horror, then you’ll absolutely adore the event. We can only see it getting bigger and better - make sure you book yourself a ticket in 2021!
