Time stands still, as souls of the deceased remain stuck, forced to spend all their time in Purgatory Town. But what’s their story?<\/strong><\/p>\n

From Thorpe Park’s website..<\/p>\n

“Calling all lost souls! As the sun sets, the residents of Big Easy Boulevard lock their doors, but there\u2019s no rest for the wicked. Here, the condemned wander the streets, praying for their souls to cross over\u2026 and they\u2019re just dying to meet you in this all-new interactive scare zone.”<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/em><\/p>\n

Featuring a vast group of characters, all with a story to tell, Purgatory Town is completely interactive! Look out for a vampire couple who are hosting a dance till you drop (dead) party. There’s a gravedigger wandering around, who prefers the company of the dead rather than the living…but what happens if you call him by his name, Howard? A pirate who died at sea roams the town too…but did he ever find his treasure? And what about the guy with a Raven on a stick: he thinks he’s Edgar Allen Poe’s brother and can recite any work of Poe you can think of!\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

And that’s not all of them!<\/p>\n

We’ll be updating this page throughout the event as we get to know the souls of Purgatory Town in more detail.<\/p>\n
