“Killer clowns”, gruesome ghouls and brain-hungry zombies will terrify paying guests at a horrifying Halloween experience.

Next Friday and Saturday (October 28 and 29), two “ghost nights” will be held at the Gardens of Hanbury in High Beach, Epping Forest.

Actors will take groups of about eight people into a cottage where “all the horror starts” according to organiser Jan Twaits.

The group will then be taken around spookily decorated cellars and graveyards before a chilling finale.

Tickets cost £25, with money going to the Blesma veteran’s charity.

For more information and tickets, phone Jan Twaits on 07944 488 322 or email JaniceTwaits@hotmail.co.uk.
