GHOULISH goings on were witnessed in East Tilbury on Halloween thanks to the efforts of the Coal House Fort Project.
On Friday October 31 the project enlisted the help of the Drama Shed, a local theatre company, to bring the “Rippers Revenge” theme alive.
The Fort was packed with people seeking a Friday night Halloween fright.
Outside the Fort on Friday evening, entertainment was provided to waiting crowds by Thurrock dance troupe JTD of Performing Arts, providing relentless routines in the freezing cold.
Meanwhile crowds were directed into the tunnels in the far corner of the Fort and greeted by a Victorian style "London Bobby", who instructed the "do's and dont's" of the evenings entertainment.
After being terrified by a "Lunatic Asylum Inmate" screaming through the bars of an old gated "gaol" area, visitors were introduced to the interactive street scenes by announcements from an orphan "paper seller" shouting out key news headlines of the time "Ripper Strikes again" and "Disappearances in Fleet Street".
