Six New Haunted Zones where Pure Horror Reigns Supreme
(Hong Kong, 8 September 2006) Celebrate the eerie festival of Halloween at Ocean Park Halloween Bash. This year’s event promises to bring you a larger than life fright night, where, for the first time ever, the park will extend the hours of horror to 12 midnight. Move between six new haunted attractions, where the shimmering Luna Midnyte will make her frightening debut as the park’s public face of mystique, and the leader of over 200 shrieking spirits of the night. Appearing as a regal Chinese groom in the press conference, Allan Zeman, Chairman of Ocean Park, tells a tall ghostly tale with the charming Luna Midnyte, dazzling all with her electrifying power.
Enter at your own risk. Enter the six haunted worlds, the ‘Vampire Ball’, ‘Tortures of Chinese Hall’, ‘School of the Damned – presented by Kinder Bueno’, ‘Alien Invasion - 3D – presented by Pringles’, ‘SCREAMatorium – presented by Energizer’ and ‘Courthouse Massacre’, where cloak wearing vampires, raging demons, evil mutant professors and freaky alien slayers roam at large.
Beware of the ancient portal that will transport you to the ‘School of the Damned’ where classes in hell run wild with demon students, psycho killers and crazy teachers. Deep in the forgotten catacombs of the park where time stands still, ‘Vampire Ball’ will deliver a spine-chilling waltz that will leave you screaming for sunlight. At the ‘Tortures of Chinese Hell’, poor tortured souls hunt for lonely victims in ferocious packs. As for an extraterrestrial encounter where horror knows no bounds, the ‘Alien Invasion 3-D’ unleashes a sinister universe of monstrous aliens and gigantic flying saucers. Madness turns wild at ‘SCREAMatorium’, a lonely funeral parlor where nightmarish acts of cannibalism, mutilation and weird experimentation occur at the hands of madmen. For pure torture that will leave you screaming for eternity, enter the “Courthouse Massacre”, a grand court of law gone horribly wrong, where wrongly-judged souls seek revenge on the judge!
Additional ghostly magic will occur with Luna Midntye, Ocean Park Halloween Bash’s leading spirit, who will lure 200 ghouls through the park creating pure bedlam in their wake. To evoke the true spirit of Halloween, the multi-talented Luna Midnyte and her ‘Solid Ghould Dancers’ and ‘Mummy’s Boys’ will create ghostly magic with spellbinding shows featuring high-energy music, dance and acrobatics. “Ocean Park Halloween Bash is extra special this year as our leading lady Luna Midnyte makes her much anticipated debut. Guests will be enchanted by her creativity, energy and dynamic way with the spirits of the night, adding value to what is already recognized as the spookiest Halloween entertainment in Asia,” said Allan Zeman.
“In addition to great entertainment, this year’s Ocean Park Halloween Bash will again extend real value for money to our guests. Our gate admission offers guests unlimited access to all six haunted zones. That’s right, one pass, one night of endless horror!” added Allan Zeman.
The fright continues in the Scary Zones where a ghostly ship wreck, a terror filled jungle, and a zombie infested cemetery, respectively, will create an extra spooky haunting. The spirit of Halloween will come alive with the ‘Moonlight Madness’, a spectacular medley of lights, lasers, music and special effects. For hungry souls, the ‘Exotic Halloween Dinner’ extends a chilling dining experience at the Captain’s Table, Terrace Caf?and at kiosks throughout the park.
For the sixth consecutive year, Ocean Park Halloween Bash continues to set the standard for interactive and innovative theme park entertainment. The popular Ocean Park Halloween Bash is recognized as the region’s premier Halloween event where creative entertainment cultivates an unforgettable park experience that appeals to almost all audiences.
