When I was a little kid, I really wanted to own a ghost train so I could ride it all the time. I remember going on a ghost train at some British seaside resort in the 1970s, but I don't remember where it was or what the ride was called. I do remember it had a big dip like at 2:51 but it was in the open at the front. It is possible it was Dymchurch Amusement Park, if that was around back then.

Year's ago I was working on the lifeguard service patrol boat and one carm day we found a coffin which was just about floating We thought it was from a burial at sea and brought it ashore just east of the pier People on the beach were horrified as we carried it up and into the lifeguard arches I was about to ring the police when a pier security guy came along and thanks for getting that back it comes from the ghost train Some kids had thrown it in the sea !!

I make and buy horror props; I offered to donate them to this Ghost Train. I didn't want money, I just wanted to add my props to help out, but nobody ever got back to me. Oh well, I'm glad Flamingo Park in Hastings got theirs. I made my own Halloween Horror maze, and I couldn't imagine leaving the walls blank like this! That outside section has potential, but nobody is doing anything.

A nice Halloween diversion! We've just got back from Chessington where they're having a Halloween week. There were creepy woodland walks with scary performers jumping out at you. Top stuff! Fascinating to see the inner workings of this ride. I remember the fire being on the news, and I also remember hearing about people wanting to book the hotel.

You like Ghost Trains, you made a vid about Ghost Trains, you mentioned Ghost Trains in both your novels...Think I can already guess the title of your NEXT novel 😃 Talking of titles, always thought The Last Days Of Jack Sparks was a great title, and Jack Sparks a great name.

Never been to Brighton peir but this does look like a great place to take my kids my 6 and 8 year olds would love it.....have you thought of doing a video about doctor who to watch on halloween?you know spooky stuff and try not to say season 13 job done lol. But you've got stat of decay horror of fang rock, edge of destruction, even vengeance on varos, paradise towers. Heck I'm not a big new who fan but even midnight. Could try and pick one for each doctor....just an idea. Xx

The Ghost Train that burnt down was not the original one, back in the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s the Ghost train was on the opposite side of the Pier (it’s now a Pub/Bar), footage of the original Ghost Train can be seen in the film Carry on at Your Convenience (1971).
