Alcotraz - Manchester!
If your worse nightmare is the thought of ending up behind bars, Alcotraz the immersive prison cocktail experience could be the perfect activity for a hen or stag weekend in Manchester. Smuggle your alcohol contraband past the prison guards and enjoy two hours of cocktails and entertainment with your cell mate.

Here you'll be 'kidnapped' by a serial killer and locked in Bristol's old crown court prison cells and living your worst nightmare. Your challenge will be to try your best to make it out of the rooms by working together to escape before the killer comes back.

For those wanting to celebrate Halloween with less of the fear factor, this Thriller dance class is an enjoyable way to join in on the zombie groove. The iconic dance routine is taught by a professional and talented dance instructor and is 2 hours of pure entertainment – a fun addition to any hen weekend in Brighton.
