The story

A hospital ward that closed in 1987 still has one patient on the board. This is our only properly scary room: dark corridors, sudden sounds and an actor who knows where you are.

Ward Nine has jump scares and an actor in the room. You can say the safe word any time and the lights come straight on.

Recommended for 16 and over, and for groups who enjoy screaming at each other in a fun way.
