MAN QUITE RIGHTLY THOUGHT WE MIGHT LIKE TO SEE THE “DEVIL’S ARSE” SIGN
The “Devil’s Arse” has a vaguely Dreamcast-like logo. But even if it just said “Devil’s Arse” in Helvetica on a plain white background we’d have used the photographs.
“I thought you might like to see the Dreamcast swirl used on quite possibly the most inappropriately named family tourist attraction in the world, ‘The Devil’s Arse’.”
“Unfortunately it was closed at the time so I wasn’t able to enter ‘The Devil’s Arse’ to see what SEGA merchandise may reside inside the cavern” – Mike.

Probadly where they keep Shadow the Hedgehog.

I must say, their website http://www.thedevilsarse.com is a real let down. Not one Dreamcast or anal sphincter in sight.
Maybe that stuff is all hidden on a secret FTP account on that server, containing all of the details about Sega’s deal with the devil to bring back the Dreamcast in exchange for Sony’s soul.

I’m going to guess there is no Sega related merchandise inside the Devil’s Arse. But they are practically giving away Crash Bandicoot plushies.

As a long time Sega fan I’ve seen inside the Devil’s Arse more times than I care to mention. Count yourself lucky it was shut when you arrived. Once you’ve seen inside it, it can be very hard to stop collecting the merchandise for years to come.

Try not to notice that small piece of paper on the road on the first photograph. Otherwise, you’ll never be able to look at the picture again without your eye being mercilessly drawn to it, much like spotting a woman’s cleavage or some dogs rutting in the road.

Gosh, the Devil’s Arse looks like a charming little place.

They have other attractions of interest! God’s piss flaps and Barrymores rape pool. The local council have real problems choosing names for there attractions.

I’ve been inside that very place. I didn’t have my Sega spotting head on at the time, so I might not have been paying proper attention, but I don’t remember seeing anything Sega-like.
It’s a very interesting cave though. It’s called the Devils Arse because of the noise that water makes as it drains out of the cave if it becomes flooded. Imagine water draining noisily out of a bath, but with a plug (arse) hole six foot across and draining millions of gallons. It can be heard far across the village of Castleton, apparently.
No jokes there, sorry about that :(

Badben, I’m now imaging you having interchangable heads, like Worzel Gummidge.
I never liked Worzel Gummidge as a child. He always put the willies up me.

Castleton is great, full of caves and shit. And a castle, but I never visted that. But the very best thing about it is the visitor centre in the centre of town that’s full of Wicker-Man-esque mayday festival shit. They’ve got photos of the ceremonial opening by Brian Blessed.
I’ve never wished I’d been at any event more in my life.
