Stourbridge Scare Maze is a local scare event in the high street of Stourbridge, located in West Midlands west of Birmingham. As a high intensity scare attraction, this is a 12,000 sq foot scare attraction which hosts numerous horror themes in one long lasting journey. With Stourbridge Scare Maze aiming to provide a truly immersive horror experience, you’ll encounter high quality sets, live actors and other special effects as you step within their haunted attraction.
“Stourbridge Scare Maze is like no other. You will have to face your fears all under one roof! Can you survive the radiation of the ‘bunker’ and what still lurks in the shadows? Will you brave the evil torture and psych experiments of Crown Lane Asylum? Can you navigate through Killundie creek where the interbred hillbillies are waiting amongst the scarecrows? Will you dare to enter the junkyard where the ‘wasted’ roam within the post-apocalyptic ruins or venture on down to the evil and satanic rituals of the church of Satan. If you made it this far then let’s see if you survive the twisted carnival where our cannibalistic circus friends await you.”
With Stourbridge being slightly different to your average event we are used to visiting, this is more of a local, smaller event. With this said, they still have a lot of surprises within the experience which we will delve a little deeper into.
Located in the lower high street, we managed to find parking using the Getting Here section on the website. Parking at the bottom of the street, a few minutes walk from the event was completely free. Failing this, there was a pay and display carpark literally next door. Our tickets were checked with a small health and safety chat and then we had a few minutes wait before we entered the building for our experience. Due to the event being quiet during our slot, we entered in just our group of 2, which is amazing that they didn’t forcefully batch a bigger group we see happen in bigger events.
Starting with the scares at Stourbridge Scare Maze, they were up to the mark expected. We jumped in so many of the different themes with some actors getting very up close and personal. With the help of a different range of themes, this allowed us to meet a vast range of characters, all with multiple ways to get some fear out of you. With some really good scenes and scares, it could of benefitted from more actors throughout to help provide more scares.
Moving onto the themeing and storyline, the themeing was beyond astounding. We were not expecting this level of quality in a venue and single scare maze styled attraction with multiple themes. Each theme was so distinct and stood out crystal clearly, without the actors involved. From hillbillies to carnivals to even a bunker theme being within the attraction, they were designed from top to bottom to be eerie & creepy. This helped make it more scarier and did fill more of the dead space without actors. Sadly, no storyline is intertwined within Stourbridge Scare Maze as of yet but, we might see this in the future?
The actors were really good at their job here and we must praise them for working in such a large space and with such a range of themes. This meant they had to stick with their theme but with each theme, came multiple rooms and sets which allowed them to follow you, cause chaos and hold you back. With the small groups with decent gaps, it allowed them to spend more time with your group, instead of just a few moments. Moments like these are rare to find in events nowadays and we really enjoyed this element of the event.
Scares: 6/10 | Themeing & Storyline: 8/10 | Actors: 6/10
Overall, Stourbridge Scare Maze is a worthwhile visit and is a fun event. With excellent themeing throughout and some really unique elements, this event stands out, even with some room for future improvements. The event runs on selected nights during October and tickets can only be bought directly from their website. With tickets costing £15 per person and the attraction length taking around 15-25 minutes to experience, this isn’t bad value for money when compared to length and themeing compared to some of the bigger events!
If you think you can handle one long scare maze instead of the typical few minutes, check this place out for sure! Thank you to the team at Stourbridge Scare Maze for inviting us to experience the event for the first time and we will have to come back in the future to see how this event goes from strength to strength.
