BUNKER 13 FAQ's
What exactly is a scare/haunted attraction?
In general terms, a scare attraction is a live action, horror themed maze designed to put you into the thick of the action in a very scary (but safe) environment. Imagine watching a horror movie with the serial killer stalking the group of friends, now, imagine you are in that scene with them, feeling what they feel, seeing what they see, this is what scare attractions are like. You will be walking through various themed sets and scenes with actors in full makeup and costumes interacting with you, lights flashing, smoke filling the air, music and sound effects ringing out etc.
I know this is a scare attraction but will it be scary?
Basically, yes! The very nature of this attraction is to scare you in a fun way. We want you to feel nervous about going into it, be terrified while you're walking through it but at the end come out laughing and feel good about the fact you survived your journey into the unknown. I know there are lots of actors inside the attraction, will they grab me? No, the actors will interact with you, talk to you and even possibly accidentally touch you but at no time during your experience inside will anyone grab you or invade your personal space to point where it's no longer a fun experience.
What kind of effects can I expect to encounter inside?
There are multiple effect elements that go into making the experience as immersive as possible. These include the use of various lighting rigs, smoke, water, air blasts, sounds and sensory deprivation. When all these things come together they create a truly amazing effect which makes you believe you are actually inside a very strange world.
How long does the attraction last for?
From start to finish the actual experience inside the attraction will last approximately 20 minutes but you are free to stay around Magna for as long as you like after the experience is over.
Can I leave the attraction half way through if I am too scared to carry on?
There are several points in the attraction that would allow you to leave action. If you felt unable to carry on then you should make one of the actors aware of this and they will escort you to the nearest exit point but we highly recommend you finish the journey and experience everything we have to throw at you.
How many go through the scare attraction at once?
We stick to a group size of a maximum of 10 people to ensure you get the most from the attraction but where possible the group size will be smaller.
Is there any disabled access to the Bunker 13 attraction?
Perhaps seems to be the best answer to this one. Due to the nature of the attraction there are lots of dark, tight corridors to navigate. In certain areas this may be difficult for wheelchairs to access but we would judge each case on its own merit. There will be dedicated Bunker 13 staff outside the attraction so, if you have any doubts or questions regarding this, please come over to speak to one of us before you purchase your tickets.
Who should not attend the attraction?
Due to the extreme nature of the Bunker 13 experience we recommend people under the age of 10 do not enter. However, if you are under the age of 10 and are with an adult over the age of 18 who is sure you will be OK then we would allow you to enter providing your adult/guardian agreed to this. We also recommend people who have heart conditions, suffer from epilepsy or who are pregnant do not enter the attraction at all. At times you will be plunged into darkness, have to manoeuvre through confined spaces and be put into situations that some people would find distressing so, with this in mind, anyone who suffers from a nervous disposition should not enter the attraction but if you decide to you do so completely at your own risk.
Where can I get tickets from?
Tickets are available from this website (by clicking the link on the bookings page), from Magna or on the door when you arrive. We recommend advance booking as anyone who pre-books will not have to queue to enter the attraction potentially saving you a lot of time.
What other facilities are available?
The Magna Science Adventure Centre is a multilevel, immersive attraction experience taking you through the 4 natural elements, earth, wind, fire and water. Each zone has many interactive exhibits, games and displays as well as spectacular effects like the fire tornado. There are also other attractions within the building such as the Age of Steel effects show and a gift shop. The Magna centre is also equipped with several café areas selling light snacks, nibbles and drinks. There are also multiple toilet facilities and areas to relax before/after the performance.
Will there be any parking?
The location has 500 free parking spaces so this shouldn’t be a problem for you.
