A THEME park in Bedfordshire is claiming a world record for the most people howling.

The Mead Open Farm near Leighton Buzzard had 464 visitors howling for a minute on Saturday to commemorate the opening of a new ride, called The Howl, which is part of the park's new Halloween attraction.

The existing Guinness World Record was set in 2013 when 296 students at St Cloud State University in Minnesota, US, howled for a minute.
