Since The York Dungeons opened in 1986, it’s welcomed (is that the right word for something like this?!) an incredible 5,000,000 people through its doors.
The woman who took the title of 5,000,000th customer was Denise Pitts, was was taking her mother on a trip to the scary attraction for her birthday. And the birthday celebrations were made even better when the pair were given VIP treatment – including coffee and cake while they waited for their tour to begin, free pictures and goody bags.
“The experience was great. We loved that the show was informative with a dash of terror and a hint of humour; also some unexpected surprises along the way! Thoroughly enjoyable. Jeanette was put into a cage for pleading insanity when accused of naked dancing and she found this absolutely hilarious. The actors were great and really got into their characters. We would highly recommend this attraction when visiting York and would like to thank everyone for making us feel so special.” Says Denise.
“The York Dungeon has been a must see since opening in 1986, and over the past 34 years we have welcomed, scared and provided amazing immersive experiences to five million visitors. This is a significant milestone in the history of the York Dungeon and it was great to surprise Denise and Jeanette as the visitors that hit the milestone; particularly with the help of Town Crier, Ben Fry.
“2020 is another exciting year for The York Dungeon with a new shows for February Half Term – ‘War of the Roses: The Bloody Battle’, Guy Fawkes in May and Séance in October for Halloween,” Says Dungeon Manager Stuart Jarman.
