This Halloween, the Severn Valley Railway is bringing back its Ghost and Scream Train.

The trains will run on the 30th and 31st October and 1st November, and will feature scares and entertainment.

The spooky experience begins and ends at Kidderminster Town station, where there will be a DJ from 4 pm til 9 pm to provide a great atmosphere.

During the trip, passengers will take an adventure through haunted stations, with Arley being transformed into ‘the home of the living dead’.

The Ghost Train is specifically family-friendly, whereas the Scream Train is designed for adults only.

Tickets are required to be booked in advance as availability is limited, which can be done online.

“The Ghost and Scream Trains are among our most distinctive events of the year,”

“They bring together theatrical performance, lighting, and sound effects to create a uniquely eerie atmosphere on board the train and along the line. The response from visitors is always fantastic, and it’s wonderful to see so many people returning year after year to be thoroughly terrified!”

Lewis Maddox, the SVR’s visitor engagement manager
