Arnold horror film festival set to return to 'haunted forest'

A horror film festival in the middle of a forest in Arnold is set to return this September. Visitors to the Huldra film festival - which takes place on Saturday, September 3 - will have to walk through a 'haunted forest' to get to the screening with the opportunity to wander through the venue's maize maze.

The outdoor festival shows a collection of carefully selected short horror films from international and home-grown filmmakers. As well as the films on offer, the festival will have a selection of hot food, a full bar and also merchandise on sale from local independent businesses.

The forest backs out onto George's Hill: an area which, according to folklore, there have been mysterious reports of a figure wearing all black. According to historic reports, the figure was seen wearing a hat, covering all features except a large, hooked nose, and a silver chain.
