2025

Back again for 2025, The Compound continues to deliver the intensity and unpredictability that made it a standout last year. Although the layout hasn’t changed, there are so many possible routes that each run-through still feels different. The costumes and makeup remain first-class, and while we would love to see an even more intense version in future, the experience is still a highlight.

2026

COMPOUND is back for 2026 and this year introduces a new pre-show video while guests are locked inside their pods, featuring Toxicator.

There’s also something we’ve never seen before, with some guests being dragged out of their pods by actors.

It doesn’t happen in every pod, but it was great fun watching people’s reactions when it did happen.

We had a lot of fun inside the maze and there were some really good jump scares, but our run-through felt quite short.

There were also a few effects we’ve seen working previously that weren’t operating during our visit.

That’s always one of the issues with mazes that have multiple routes. Depending on which way you’re sent, you might not see everything.

Short, fun, but missing something.

We’d love to see COMPOUND use one main route through the maze so everyone gets the chance to experience everything inside.
