Dickens World

Dickens World is a new theme park for Dickens fans. It will be opening it's doors to the public May 25th. Here are some of the attractions...

"With a host of captivating attractions, Dickens World features one of Europe’s largest dark boat rides, the Haunted house of Ebenezer Scrooge, a state-of-the art animatronic show, Victorian School Room, 4D high definition show and Fagin’s Den. Offering a unique showcase for one of the world’s best loved storytellers, Dickens World will truly offer visitors the ‘day out of a lifetime’.

"Dickens World is based on a credible and factual account of Charles Dickens works and the world in which he lived. Working with The Dickens Fellowship great attention has been paid to the authenticity of the time, characters and story lines. It offers a new and entertaining way to enjoy Dickens and his characters as well as gaining an understanding of the times and conditions people experienced living in England in the early 19th century."

Well, I'm steeped in the Dickens mood from just looking at the website, which says things like, "Can you meet our 'Great Expectations'?" and "Add a 'Twist' to your visit".

Dickens World is located in Chatham Maritime in Kent, England, just miles from where Dickens grew up, and promises to be a dreamland for all Dickens fans!
