URF: Widley, Portsmouth

Book your place on the Encounter

Date: Friday 06 September, 2024

Time: 7:30 PM to 8:30 PM

Location: Fort Widley

Ticket Price: £20

The tunnels carved deep within Portsdown Hill are used for as containment for the most extreme re-animates. You will be toured deep underground to examine for yourselves the highly secure centre for research and experimentation. The journey into the depths is only for the fit and mobile and definitely not for the nervous. Are you prepared for what may happen if you had to get out in a hurry?

Imagine a world where a darkness lurks beneath the surface, where the dead rises to seek revenge on an un-suspecting living; a ‘re-animate’ army where only a few freedom fighters stand between you and oblivion.

Perhaps this world is closer than you could imagine. There is an organisation called URF who have research facilities all over the country in the guises of Forts, Museums, Castles and even Guildhalls; endlessly working to protect the living against this threat. Whether you attend one of their open days, get recruited as a URF operative or get trained at the URF Zombie Boot-camp Weekend you will be assisting this organisation against the greatest threat Humankind has ever known.

Are you ready for a totally immersive experience, in a real-time video game where anything can happen? Remember, trust no one…
