The House

Hordes of monsters begin to descend upon a "remote northern village." You find yourself coming up against icy, horned, winged and wolfish fiends. 

The terrifying creatures will begin to "merge," becoming "one giant horror." Will you make it out of the north in one piece or will you find yourself unable to "escape the belly of the beast?"

The House

Winter houses at Halloween Horror Nights go hard and Gálkn was no exception. This house had it all, monsters, snow and a huge burning wicker man.

I really enjoyed this house, it ticked a lot of the boxes I look for when it comes to a HHN experience. The house was creepy, atmospheric and had a set piece moment that is truly unforgettable, the wicker man scene.

You could see the burning figure as you came around the corner, but it took a couple of more twists of the maze before it was in its full glory.

I loved the puppets in this house and the giant monster at the end was stunning. Gálkn was a monster lovers snowy paradise.

This was a great house and I'm sad that it ranks so low, purely because of how amazing the other houses that are in this year's line up.
