With just over 2 mounths not long realy Thorpe park will be doing fright nights. So people can try book time off etc the dates we did last year were near then end which worked well with alot of people so doing the same this year. Sunday 26th of October for thorpe park fright nights and 1st november for Alton towers fright nights and Drayton manors fireworks on sunday the 2nd of November. These both turned out to be great trips last year a great way to end the theme park season.

26th october Thorpe park fright nights
1st November Alton towers Fright nights
2nd November Drayton manor Fireworks

I may do Draytons fireworks as it is near to me. I liked Thorpe's Halloween event. I did not have to queue for the mazes as disabled comes in handy at the end of the season to do the rides.
