Dracula from the Castle

Sold Out!

Date: Wednesday 16 October, 2024

Time: 7:30 PM to 9:00 PM

Location: Portchester Castle

Bram Stoker’s timeless gothic thriller embodies the conflict between superstition, science and the unknown. As the looming shadow of Dracula falls over the castle, you will be locked in a struggle for survival where only the fittest will survive. Dr Seward welcomes you to Fairfax Abbey, where you will be in the heart of the action as four of his patients have a tale to tell. A tale of creatures of the night, red glowing eyes and monstrous creatures climbing the walls. But are these tales the imaginings of troubled minds... or remembrances from lived experiences; and now, their nightmare is stalking you?

After two sold out years the adaption changes once again and returns for one FINAL year.

This new immersive adaptation of Bram Stoker’s adventure begins the minute you arrive at the castle... "Enter freely and of your own will."
And so it begins...
