Just went to Hallowscream at Luna Park in Sydney.
Incredibly shit. Shit Value.
Highlight would be the visitors costumes, makeup and disguises but seems to be mainly girls who are dressed more for a Asian Halloween night club event. So great for wannabe influencers to go there to take some nice Halloween photos.
$130pp for tickets.
4 hours where we got to experience:
- 3 rides (roughly 1 hour 30 mins wait the longest and 30 mins the shortest)
- 2 photos to download from the digital pass from the rides
- 1 Halloween maze approximately 80m long lasting a few mins that was sparsely decorated in a theme and about 6 mediocre actors in a section each.
- 1 Sideshow alley game where the guaranteed prize was a pin badge
- 1 Slushie from the $6.50 food voucher included
- A few roaming performers
I still think that Fearophobia in Helensvale, QLD has the best Halloween maze/event in Australia at much cheaper ticket prices - https://fearaphobia.com.au/
Movieword has Fright Night which also features long lines, but at least the mazes were much better than the Luna Park one with more effects and better actors, but long lines.
Some residential homes like Terror on Topham in Brisbane have done a good job for an essentially free lightshow / house event - https://www.facebook.com/iwanttoplayagamewithyou/
Not sure of other well known ones around Sydney though. I know it's not an Australian event though.
Best event has still been overseas, particularly in Toronto in Canada where the whole city goes into Halloween, they close down the major CBD road and there's thousands of people in costumes / performances, trick and treaters everywhere.
