Alton Towers Resort announces that Scarefest returns for 2026, featuring a new scare maze for visitors. The resort also promotes a competition offering chances to win an ultimate day out, including overnight accommodation.
The Mirror and the Daily Record both focus on the same event details: the return of Scarefest at Alton Towers Resort and the introduction of a “terrifying” or “new” scare maze as part of the 2026 lineup. Both outlets frame the announcement as an advance preview of what attendees can expect in the coming season, alongside the promotional prize.
While the articles share the same core information, their presentation differs slightly in emphasis and wording, such as how they describe the maze and the competition. Neither outlet’s coverage indicates changes to the wider event concept beyond the new 2026 attraction and the associated prize promotion.
