Haunted Library: Twisted Carnival

Te Takeretanga o Kura-hau-pō’s Haunted Library presents Twisted Carnival!

The circus has come to town, but behind the bright colours of the big top and the happy music, something is terribly wrong. The laughter of clowns covers the sounds of children screaming, the animals have turned on their tamers, and someone seems to have unlocked the Freaks’ Cage, letting them loose to stalk the unwary through the alleys of the twisted Carnival. Careful which corner you turn, or you’ll find yourself trapped in a terrifying nightmare from which there may be no return!

Beginning in the Youth Space Big Top, courageous participants will be taken through a twisting path by guides that winds through all areas of the library, and (hopefully) end up alive and well at the Main Entrance.

“Fright Sessions” start from 5.00pm – for families and younger children
“Terror Sessions” start from 8.00pm – for older children (recommended 12+)

Each session runs for approximately 15 minutes and has a maximum limit of 20 participants - session priority will be given to pre-purchased ticketholders.

If the experience becomes too frightening, staff will be available to remove affected participants.
