Tricky Halloween treats at uShaka
A bit of Halloween fun for the whole family can be had at uShaka Marine World's House of Fear.
WITCHES, ghouls and other scary monsters will be prowling the Village Walk at uShaka Marine World this Halloween as part of the spine-chilling Halloween parades that will take place until Sunday 29 September as well as every weekend until Sunday 3 November.
That’s why, in September and October, getting the shivers will have nothing to do with a dunking at Wet ‘n Wild and everything to do with visits to uShaka’s House of Fear and the eerie Phantom Ship.
uShaka is going all out to both trick and treat its visitors in the lead up to one of the world’s most fun filled celebrations in October.
Even the friendly Village Walk has a spooky corner as you’ll discover at the House of Fear created by set designer Greg King, where doors creak and ghoulish characters, coffins and blood spills greet the wary explorer.
With surprises around every corner, you can get into the Halloween spirit for just R40. No children below the age of 13 may enter the House of Fear.
A splash of magic is added to the whole ‘terror-ific’ Halloween experience with a jaw dropping dolphin show on October 26 and 27 from 4pm. The children will be offered the opportunity to trick or treat through the stores along Village Walk.
The trick or treat tour will then lead the children to the Wreck Aquarium in the Phantom Ship where, at 5.30pm, the uShaka Sea World dolphins will entertain both the young and old in a be-witching show written and directed by Charon Williams Ros and featuring everybody’s favourite characters Flotsam and Jetsam (played by Rory Booth and Brendan Mendes) and the mean and bossy witch Wilhelmina (played by Peter Court) who will stop at nothing to get her own way!
The show features song and dance and is aimed at children young and the young-at-heart. It will feature well known songs like Somebody’s Watching Me, These Boots are made for Walking and the traditional showstopper Thriller.
Dress to impress according to this year’s witches and werewolves theme. A freaky fancy dress competition will mean prizes for the best dressed and scariest outfits.
Tickets for the Halloween dolphin show, on the 26 and 27 October, will cost R110 for both adults and children under the age of 12. Children under 3 years old can enter free of charge.
Tickets are limited, so book well in advance at Computicket outlets or at the uShaka Marine World ticketing office. For more information visit www.ushakamarineworld.co.za or call 031-328 8000
