Coinciding with the premiere of The Walking Dead season 8 (October 23) and to celebrate the show's landmark 100th episode, Thorpe Park is opening two new mazes (one inside and one out) so thrill-seekers can literally take part in the horror.

The indoor maze and first live attraction featuring season 7, called The Walking Dead: Living Nightmare, will see visitors experience terrifying iconic scenes of the global phenomenon, joining other survivors on the brink of death at the mercy of the notorious Negan.

And in The Walking Dead: Sanctum, you can experience a live-action outdoor maze like no other following in the footsteps of survivors, visitors have to navigate their way past the roaming walkers or risk being captured.

Thorpe Park's Divisional Director Dominic Jones said: "Fright Nights is Thorpe Park Resort's biggest event of the year, and we're hugely excited to bring the worldwide phenomenon that is The Walking Dead to our visitors.

"Each of the two specially-built mazes are absolutely terrifying and are definitely not for the faint-hearted."
