Our Night at Camp Mass Acre




Me and one of my Closest mates Sam Lane(it’s just easier calling you that Sam) are massive horror fans, we love trashy horror, slasher, paranormal, monster movies and it was sheer luck that i found out about Horror Camp Live on Facebook, I looked at their website and was instantly hooked, it sounded amazing, being in a horror movie scenario, spending a night in Camp Mass Acre ... do you get it? Mass Acre... Massacre, But I digress... The story sounded amazing, something that would keep you on your toes. Me and Sam decided this was a no brainer, we were gonna go, but despite our suggestions neither of our partners, My Girlfriend Gem and Sams Fiancé and one of my Best Mates Jimmy decided against joining us on our frightful adventure. 

*Skipping to The Day Of Arrival* 

We were informed that under no circumstance were we to arrive earlier than 19:45 on the Saturday
we got there and was greeted by one camp leader heavily in character(Dawnee) as well as workers for Horror Camp Live not in character but part of the Production Team behind it and got us to sign our consent forms and told us the do’s and the don’ts etc etc  and then we were lead down the actual camp site where we met the other camp leader Davey(who was camper than a row of tents)
We sang a little camp song, did a little dance until we were viciously met by the farmer who dressed like WWE Superstar The Undertaker but looked the spitting image of Wolf from Gladiators who called himself ABHRAHAM CLEAVER and he was my favourite performer of the night, and he delivered some more cryptic lines as well as stumbling over some of his dialogue but he was effective as hell. 

Now from here I promised i wouldn’t reveal spoilers, especially for those who haven’t been yet.
But all in all it was a disapointing night, we had fun for the most part and some parts really really did drag, but it was just little things that could have been changed to make the experience so much more effective, but in my conclusion if your a casual horror fan this is definitely for you as there are multiple twists and turns as well as a few shocks in the middle of the night.
Overall I’d give the night 2/5 
give credit where credit is due most of the scare actors gave it all in their roles, but for the majority of the night we were just twiddling our thumbs and before the experience was over, I honestly just wanted to go to bed and drive home the next day. This wasnt worth the astonishing amount that you charged, thank you for the time but I unfortunately wont be seeing any more of your attractions in the future based on my own experience.
