00:00Manchester is a city that is very much alive.
00:03Even at night, there are people on every corner.
00:06But what happens when the living are joined by the dead?
00:11Well, in the face of such terror, we hid ourselves away at Diecast on Ducey Street.
00:16What a mistake that was, because in there they have their two Halloween special events,
00:21Toymaker and Time to Die.
00:23Hi, I'm Theo with Manchester World, and welcome to Halloween in Manchester.
00:28Today I'm here at the opening of Manchester Scare Factory at Diecast.
00:32I'm going to try out the rooms and let you know what I think,
00:34and you'll probably get to see some pretty funny videos of me being absolutely terrified.
00:58Are you OK? Do you want a minute?
01:08Well, I really like your dress. It's really good.
01:11Thanks, thanks, thanks.
01:13It's a nice style choice.
01:15There's like a clown mill around here that terrifies Jesus.
01:20OK.
01:21He'll kill you. He'll kill you.
01:25The walls are moving.
01:27Oh, it's moving.
01:39So we've just finished Toymaker, and it genuinely...
01:46I think I'll need a while to recover.
01:48I mean, there were some... I wasn't sure what to expect.
01:51There were some genuine scares in there. You'll get a little glitch.
01:54I don't want to give it away too much.
01:57We've still got another room to go to, but I think I'm going to need a drink.
02:01So I have a drink we did.
02:02Fortunately, Diecast have a couple of special drinks out for the Halloween season,
02:05so this is a bloody strawberry daiquiri and a pumpkin patch reaper.
02:07The pumpkin patch one in particular was really unique, and got us ready to go again.
02:11Let's go. I don't know if I want to be at the back. I think I'm going to be chased.
02:19So, again, it's just time to go. There's a lot of tension building in there.
02:24Time to die.
02:34Go on, then. Go and get it.
02:36Thank you very much.
02:43Yeah!
02:49So that's everything for the events at Diecast.
02:51It was a massively fun time and a terrifying one, too.
02:54Please don't go if you're faint of heart, but if you're up for a challenge,
02:57get along and have some fun.
