Armageddon expo buys Spookers

Kia ora neighbours, horror theme park Spookers has been sold – after being on the market for five years – to the owners of the Armageddon expo.

Spookers, which is on the grounds of Kingseat Hospital, a former psychiatric unit, has been leased by Julia Tukiri, her husband Jemall and her parents, mayor of Rangitikei Andrew Watson and Beth Watson since 2005.
