00:19 - Thanks Alex, I’m here at Broadditch Farm where they’ve just opened their annual Hauntfest.

00:24 - I’m here with John who is one of the owners of Broadditch Farm

00:27 - John, what exactly is Broadditch Hauntfest?

00:29 - So, hauntfest is our Halloween attractions that we open each year, we’ve got 5 haunts and attractions that we put on for the public, all themed differently,

00:38 - We’ve actually been running since 2001, so we’ve yeah in our 16th year.

00:44 - Yeah, sounds good, and is there anything special happening to any of the attractions this year?

00:49 - Each year we try to change them all, so they’re all going to have modifications, different scares, different interactions for the public to enjoy, umm if it was left the same obviously people wouldn’t want to keep coming back, so we have to up our game in accordance, yeah. 

01:03 - And do you have a personal favourite?

01:05 - I actually have two favourites if I’m allowed, first one being the spooky castle which was one of the first haunts we ever started with, the other for this season anyway would certainly be Thirteen The Freaks as it’s very interactive, really full on. 

01:22 - Okay, sounds spooky, umm right now I’ve just got a little quiz for you, all you have to do is answer whether you think it’s a myth or a fact.

01:29 - Okay, so the first one is Halloween is the Devil’s Holiday?

01:34 - No that’s a myth, it’s got to be a myth.

01:38 - Yep, it’s a myth, it’s actually derived from celtic and druid ritual which is separate from christianity so has got nothing to do with the devil. 

01:44 - Umm, Harry Houdini died on Halloween in 1926, myth or fact?

01:50 - Oh, probably a myth, going with myth again

01:53 - It’s a fact! There’s an official Houdini seance conducted every year.

01:58 - Well I didn’t know that

01:59 - You should watch out for poisoned sweets whilst trick or treating, myth or fact?

02:04 - I’ll go for fact this time

02:06 - It’s actually a myth, although there were a couple of cases but they were poisoned by their parents. 

02:11 - Right, so that’s all, you did very well.

02:13 - Thank you
