Award for Best Overseas Scare Event For the fifth time, Horror Nights has come out on top against international competition. Once again, Europa-Park’s spectacular Halloween evening event has been chosen as the world’s best horror event. Horror Nights received the ScareCON Annual Recognition (SCAR) award for the Best Overseas Scare Event on 13 May 2016 at England’s Dreamland in Margate. At the formal awards ceremony, the eerie spine-chiller, which has been running successfully since 2007, prevailed against a number of contenders including Universal Studios Florida’s Halloween Horror Nights (USA), Halloween in Walibi (Belgium), Walibi’s Halloween Fright Nights (Holland), Movie Park’s Halloween Horror Fest and Busch Gardens’ Howl-O-Scream (USA). The UK’s only scare award celebrated the winners with a fascinatingly spooky ceremony featuring ghoulish figures and fantastical acts. Horror Nights has already enjoyed international recognition: In 2010 and 2011 it won the Screamie Award in the Best International Attraction category. In 2014 and 2015, the ScareCON award for Best Overseas Scare Event was added to its trophies. To receive the award once more is yet more proof of the event’s outstanding quality. Project initiator and member of the Executive Board of Europa-Park Michael Mack is proud of its enormous success. Horror Nights is celebrating its anniversary in 2016. The spectacle has been guaranteeing goosebumps for ten years now – this year, from 21 September to 5 November. Further information available at http://www.horror-nights.de/index_en.html.

If it was any other time of year these three and their boyfriends might be heading to a concert or bar, but it is Halloween which means that like everyone else they will be bound for Hell Fest – a sprawling labyrinth of rides, games and mazes that travels the country and happens to be in town. Every year thousands follow Hell Fest to experience fear at the ghoulish carnival of nightmares. But for one visitor, Hell Fest is not the attraction – it is a hunting ground. An opportunity to slay in plain view of a gawking audience, too caught up in the terrifyingly fun atmosphere to recognize the horrific reality playing out before their eyes. As the body count and frenzied excitement of the crowds continue to rise, he turns his masked gaze to Natalie, Brooke, Taylor and their boyfriends who will fight to survive the night. CBS FILMS and TUCKER TOOLEY ENTERTAINMENT present a VALHALLA MOTION PICTURES production HELL FEST Starring Amy Forsyth, Reign Edwards, Bex Taylor-Klaus and Tony Todd. Casting by Deanna Brigidi, CSA and Lisa Mae Fincannon. Music by Bear McCreary. Costume Designer Eulyn C. Hufkie. Editors Gregory Plotkin, ACE and David Egan.
