"This was hilariously funny but also intense. It was such an odd feeling of being scared out your wits but also finding it funny. Fantastic place. The actors and actresses were amazing, have to give them credit, great job done. Loved the whole thing. It's a must visit."

"Fun experience! No photos of the inside due to no talkie devices being allowed which is understandable as it would spoil the fun if you knew what you're about to endure! The kids enjoyed it although nervous in some parts however we found the actors were aware of the kids being there and left them be and chose other adults to participate. I needed the toilet during this experience and upon asking an actor they took me to them and brought me back into the next room where I was able to participate again... cannot thank the staff enough for being accommodating for this. Would highly recommend for a good laugh and a little scare! The ride at the end was fun and we came into a gift shop/bar where we had some down time after a thrilling experience!!!"

"Wow! So impressed! We were one of the last groups to go through on a Sunday afternoon (6/7/25 at 4pm) and we had such an amazing time. FIRST AND FOREMOST: The actors are absolutely incredible, so dedicated, incredibly talented and absolutely sharp and witty in interactions with guests, i cannot send enough compliments; whatever they are being paid, it needs to be more. There also really needs to be some kind of function available for customers to leave tips for the cast at the end of the experience. They were all absolutely exceptional.
The experience itself is insane value, nearly everyone (willing) in our group got "picked on" and brought into the story and these interactions were hilariously crude. The sets and props and smells and other sensory events throughout the dungeon are super immersive and the whole experience felt very personal and thoughtful. I love the London Dungeon but this just felt much more special. If you are visiting Blackpool, you absolutely need to visit here. Huge thanks and applause to all the staff."
