A man has died in a haunted house attraction called “Buried Alive”, as Hong Kong’s largest amusement park prepared to kick off its annual Halloween festival.
The 21-year-old man, surnamed Cheung, was hit by a coffin yesterday, local media said.
Mr Cheung was found unconscious five minutes after he entered the attraction, Ocean Park chief executive Matthias Li said, expressing “deep sorrow” over the tragedy.
He was confirmed dead in hospital, police said.
‘Buried Alive’ is part of a Halloween-themed festival at Ocean Park running from 5-31 October.
The park’s website said visitors would “experience being buried alive alone, before fighting their way out of their dark and eerie grave”.
