Guest Blog: Spooky Stadium - Plymouth’s Ultimate Halloween Scare Fest

This Halloween, something wicked is coming to Plymouth. For the very first time, Home Park Stadium is transforming into the city’s biggest haunted house experience, and it promises to be a fright night you’ll never forget.

From family-friendly frights to full-on nightmare fuel, Spooky Stadium really does have something for everyone. Younger ghouls (and anyone who admits they scare a little too easily!) can enjoy the kids and family sessions, packed with quirky characters, spooky fun, and just the right amount of shivers without the sleepless nights.

But once the sun goes down, the real terror begins. The 18+ sessions pull no punches, serving up jump scares, eerie effects, and a party atmosphere that ends with DJs, fire performers, and free nightclub entry at Revolution. Whether you’re looking for playful Halloween fun or a fear-inducing night out that lasts until late, Plymouth’s ultimate Scare Fest has you covered. The only question is: are you brave enough to enter?

Step Inside If You Dare...

Legend has it that a crack has opened in the quantum realm, and through it ghosts, ghouls, and creatures from beyond are spilling into Plymouth. Their gateway? Home Park Stadium. This October, the doors are opening for the first time, and you’re invited to step inside and face the horrors that lurk within. From the Far Post to the Lyndhurst Stand, every corner of the stadium hides something sinister. Wander too far into the red zones, and you may never come back...

Daytime Sessions for Kids & Families

Halloween isn’t just for grown-ups. Between 4pm and 6pm, families and younger explorers can enter the haunted stadium during daylight hours. These sessions are designed with just the right amount of scare factor - spooky characters, eerie sights, and immersive theatre toned down enough to make it a fun adventure rather than a nightmare (think spooky, not scary!)

Once you’ve survived the stadium trail, the Halloween fun continues in the Harper’s Sports Centre Safe Zone. Here, families can enjoy:

• Zombie Football - a playful twist on the beautiful game
• UV spooky games and activities
• More Halloween surprises designed for younger visitors

It’s the perfect way to celebrate Halloween with kids: exciting, atmospheric, and just the right level of creepy. Expect plenty of laughter, gasps, and the chance to make some unforgettable memories together.

Adults-Only Nighttime Sessions

When darkness falls, the real nightmare begins. From 7pm onwards, Spooky Stadium is strictly 18+, and the haunted house experience intensifies. The stadium becomes a labyrinth of fear, with terrifying actors, immersive special effects, and spine-chilling scares around every corner – guaranteed to keep your heart racing at every turn.

Do you dare to take on the full horror trail? If you make it through, your journey ends in the Babcock Devonport End, where the fright gives way to festivity. Here, you’ll find the Spooky Stadium Party, complete with:

•  Live DJs keeping the energy high
• Fire performers lighting up the night
• Spooktacular giveaways

It’s a Halloween party like Plymouth has never seen before – a mix of fear, fun, and festivity all under one roof.

The Official Afterparty at Revolution

Think it’s all over once you leave the stadium? Think again. Survivors are invited to keep the night going at Revolution Plymouth, the official Halloween afterparty.

Hop on the FREE shuttle buses that run straight from Home Park to Revolution and enjoy FREE entry when you arrive. Expect more DJs, creepy-themed cocktails, and a dancefloor filled with fellow survivors celebrating their escape from Spooky Stadium.

Capture the Fear – Survivors’ Photo Booth

If you’re one of the brave who makes it out alive, don’t forget to prove it! Head to the Survivors’ Photo Booth and snap a keepsake of your night of terror, complete with the chilling caption: “I survived the Spooky Stadium.”

It’s the perfect souvenir of a night that will haunt you (in the best way) for years to come.
