The whole experience was fantastic. Acting,special effects was so we'll rehearsed you'd think it was a real time movie. Only issue I have is if you are deaf or hard of hearing its extremely hard to follow so subtitles (if they can be incorporated) would make a massive difference and attract more customers with that disability. Overall recommend to anyone. Superb!

Wow, just wow! It was a fantastic show. I usually attend these type of attractions when i have to pass time, and generally it turna up to be a boring wqste of time. I went this show with low expectation but really surprised and realy realy enjoyed. It’s like a 3D theathre and actors act with passion. The scenes are very detailed and well-thought. Show is a good mix of horror and comedy. I think this is a must-attend show for York. The price is funny consediring how good the show is.
