It's SCAREFEST October at Alton Towers again when Britain's most popular theme parks stays open until late, well past nightfall. Just becareful on the rides especially in the dark because it is very easy to get injured if one lets ones guard down. For instance even going into a ride such as the HEX could prove dangerous as was my experience, going in all smiles, coming out with a fractured hand!

Of course not on par with the catastrophic failure of the Alton Towers SMILER ride of a few years ago. But nevertheless injuries sustained can ruin the day and take several weeks to recover from as this video illustrates.

So AGAIN ALWAYS becareful at Alton Towers and other theme parks and especially during the various SCAREFEST themes in the countdown to Halloween.
