    Its worth it!

I have read many reviews and seen very contraversial replys.
Thorpe park seems to appeal to the teenagers more, and not to the littlens?

I have to admit i love thorpe park, ive been so many times, and every single time ive never been disapointed.
The first time i went was when i was around 6 and i loved it and its been like that ever since!
The last time i went was in the summer holidays, and i went with my friends. I live very far away from thorpe park so had to get two trains, the tube and a taxi there, despite this, i had a great time and really enjoyed it with my friends.

The time im going to write about is last october : Fright night.

As always we took the car down : Me mum dad and brother, we got there dead early to avoid any potential queuing difficulties. As we have an annual pass we did not have to pay anything. When we got into the park, litterally all the rides were empty! Its definately worth getting there early or theres no point going at all.
Definately start with stealth and end with stealth. Then go over to collosus area to do collosus, detonator, nemisis inferno, rush, slammer, x no way out. This worked for us a treat! If your rich i do recommend fast past if you want to take the day slow though !
As we put on our thinking caps, we got fast pass for the mazes. DO NOT DEBATE ABOUT GETING THEM. they cut your queue time by half or more!
The mazes were seriously scary, and i highly reccomend over 12s, if not over 14s, as i was only 14 and someone older than me ran out crying.
If you arent too sure on doing them, avoid the asylum as it will scare you like nothing else.
If you want smells, and senses tingled definately do se7en, its debatedly the best maze in the park.
Hellgate is mediokre but still worth doing.
The curse (the newest maze) needs some work, as i am a wuss with these mazes and i wasnt even that scared.

Tips!!!
1)do all big rides first (stealth, saw, collosus, ect).
2)If you have young kids dont go at fright night time.
3)Get fastpass for the mazes.
4)Get fastpass for saw.
5)Watch the circus of horrors.

All in all its a good day out, and i would reccomend it.
