Re: Episode 1 - What hath night to do with sleep?
The bridge seems to be made almost entirely of wood. There are wooden handrails, wooden slatted decking, and an arched wooden substructure. The initial part of the bridge on this side of the channel starts as wooden decking just running across a slightly marshy surface, this remains intact. Then the decking begins to be supported on wooden piles sunk into the water. This part has some damage and while the decking looks mostly intact, the handrails have fallen away in places. Then from this side the last part of the bridge that is visible is a span that rises up in an arch over the main channel of water. This is what has collapsed in the middle. There's a section that climbs up, handrails intact, then it drops away into the water where a span has collapsed into the murky channel below. There's still some of the substructure poking out of the water. Then the bridge seems to start again maybe 10 feet beyond, the decking elevated in the air on a more stable structure, and dropping back down to the bank on the other side to continue as the path.

"With the bridge out," says Harry, "we'll have to go around the lake to the west."

"Maybe," says Harry, "but I don't know if I trust the boats in this place. Let's follow the shore to the west, and we'll see if we find any boats along the way."

”Yep, let’s stick to dry land,” said Charlie. ”Like Harry, I wouldn’t want to be on open water here!”
He looked around, looking for a path to follow.

“If it’s the same as Barnekker House then there’s no point in trying to escape- not until we’ve found and burnt the Witch.” Louis turns and points north. “She’s up there somewhere.”
Louis walks over to the bridge to gauge the length of span that’s missing (was there a chance of fixing a way over?)
“I don’t want to meet Barry again, he’ll be even madder next time.”

Re: Episode 1 - What hath night to do with sleep?
The missing span across the water is a good ten foot in length. It's not obvious how it could be fixed but the wooden pilings still rise out of the water and perhaps provide enough handhold for someone to try and climb across.
In terms of paths, there are essentially four visible from here. North, across the broken bridge; south, back towards the entrance and seemingly blocked by the struts of the rollercoaster; south-east around the scenic lake; and finally south-west past the funhouse and around the boating lake.

”That’s too risky,” said Charlie, looking at the gap in the bridge before pulling Louis away. ”Let’s take the path round the lake. Just make sure you stay away from the water’s edge!”
Re: Episode 1 - What hath night to do with sleep?
"Right, let's go that way," says Harry, pointing to the southeast.

"Oh, yeah!" says Harry. "Speak, friend, and enter. I wonder if that'll really work here. Mellon."

"Maybe we shouldn't think of things like that here," says Harry. "If it works like Ghostbusters, thinking about it could make it appear."
