Shaft 13 – The Legend of Hob

“Only the bravest adventurers will head into Shaft 13 – a mine long abandoned by the Dark Hills Mining Company. Many have ventured in but none have returned to tell the tale of the mine which is said to be haunted by Hob, an axe wielding demon who claims the lives of anyone who goes in.”

Shaft 13 The Legend of Hob was a very dark and creepy attraction. Taking place in a mine shaft, most of the maze was in pitch darkness with some elements of strobe, lasers and other effects. This allowed for some unexpected scares at the best of times, which was accompanied by a convincing storyline that worked well overall. Inside the maze, the across used their space well, which included a great introduction scene and comedy towards the end.

Scares: 8/10 | Themeing & Storyline: 8/10 | Actors: 7/10 | Total: 23/30

Overall, both mazes do offer a solid experience and worth the value for money, especially for a Halloween event. With covid restrictions, it did add time onto queueing for the mazes which was longer than we would of liked however, the experiences are strong and not your generic attraction themes.

Pleasurewood Chills therefore is a perfect family friendly event which has something for all. Whilst a target market towards family, Halloween does not dissapoint for the scare seekers and those after a little fright. We would love to thank the team at Pleasurewood Hills for inviting us down to experience Pleasurewood Chills for 2020 and look forward in seeing how the event develops in the future.
