HAUNTED MAZES: * NEW! THE ASYLUM Enter the Asylum at your own risk and make sure you keep the chain link fence between you and the menacing characters. Follow the light to the end of the maze ... but only until the lights go out. The menacing character that you saw lurking behind the chain link fence is now gone. Where is he? In the dark, you hear something moving past the chain link -- is he moving towards you? This maze plays on the fears we have for unpredictable things. We keep our eyes on what threatens us, but lose the ability to predict what will happen when the lights go out. Located next to the Metro Station in High Sierra Territory. * DEADMAN'S BOG If a body falls in the woods and no one is around, does it make any noise? Let's hope so, otherwise they'll be able to sneak up behind -- without your knowing! The Willoughby family had many secrets in their time, and these secrets have found a quiet, dark place to "live" in the woods behind the mansion. Find your way down the dark path leading to the mansion's rear entrance, but beware of those you may meet along the way because their "people skills" are not what is normally expected. The path through Willoughby Woods begins at Tidal Wave. * JOKESTER'S HIDEOUT 3D An all black light 3D experience! Jokester's 3D brings an all new dimension to Six Flags Fright Fest with an odd and "colorful" walk through experience. This is not your ordinary maze. There is no blood, no guts and no monsters. The goal is to sneak through the hideout to catch a peek of what projects the Jokester and his crew are working on. But watch your back ... you never know when a crazy clown will strike. Located next to the Flashback roller coaster. * BRUTAL PLANET This 6,500 square foot maze offers brutal monsters, brutal chills and brutal thrills in a universe of unknown dimensions. Grab your boarding pass and prepare to be transported to a place where evil lurks and chaos reigns. We hope to see you back on earth ... if you make it through the twelve demon filled lands! (Not intended for children under 10, ages 13 and under must be accompanied by an adult.) * TERROR AT CARNAGE E. HALL Magic Moments Theater has been transformed into an abandoned 1940's theater that is now for sale. Prospective buyers beware! Legend has it that the ghosts of seven famous actors found brutally murdered over fifty years ago still haunt the grounds. The theater tour takes groups of thirty through nine haunted rooms, in over 2,200 square feet of animated and "live" ghostly events. (Not intended for children or timid spirits.) * WILLOUGHBY'S HAUNTED MANSION Beware, the bewitching hour has struck. This sanctuary of strangeness is Halloween horror at its best. Hair-raising terror awaits guests around each nightmarish turn and long twisting hallway. The fearful encounter features animatronics, gruesome monsters, camouflage rooms and much more. The mansion is situated high atop the mountain -- at Samurai Summit. (This attraction is not intended for children.) ATTRACTIONS * BLOOD FALLS Dare to take a journey through a haunted summer camp on the infamous Log Jammer now known as Blood Falls! This camp is definitely not the fun and games that you remember! Camp Ohmagosh is terribly cursed as the shadows and sounds come alive during this frightful journey through the woods. * PARADE OF THE LIVING DEAD Shhhhh ... I see dead people ... they're everywhere! Walking down the streets of Six Flags at dusk in a procession marking the official beginning of each night's frightfully fun festivities! Catch the Six Flags ghoul patrol as they "head off" to work (no pun intended!). But don't get too close; you may become part of the celebrated! * THUMPER BUMPERS Navigate your way through pounding sound and pulsing illumination as the Sandblasters Bumper Cars are transformed into a totally new and Xtreme driving experience! These are not your ordinary bumper cars ... take your pick of one of twenty-two techno-mobiles in this Fright Fest Xperience! MORE ENTERTAINMENT & ACTIVITIES: * COLOSSUS-BACKWARDS! (A Fright Fest Exclusive) Experience one of the largest, most celebrated coasters in the world -- BACKWARDS! That's right, back by popular demand. Travel over nearly two miles on this dual track wooden coaster all while sitting completely backwards! * SCREAM!, GOLIATH, BATMAN THE RIDE, THE RIDDLER'S REVENGE, VIPER, FREEFALL and more - IN THE DARK! Take a spin on some of our world class roller coasters completely in the dark! * HIGH SIERRA HYPNOTIST This amusing show stars the members of the audience. Guests who are chosen to be put "under hypnosis" will perform hysterical exploits never to be imitated "under consciousness." Performing at the Golden Bear Theatre October 9, 16, 17, 23, 24, 29-31. * STREET SHOWS & ENTERTAINERS The Ghoul Patrol is out in force stalking Gotham City, Jokester's Plaza and Samurai Summit adding to the mysterious atmosphere while the Galloping Ghoulmet mixes up a witch's brew of absurd entertainment in the Roadkill Kitchen atop Samurai Summit. Mad Chad, the Chainsaw Juggler, will perform his daring routine at the Looney Tunes Pavilion. ESPECIALLY FOR CHILDREN AND PARENTS: * BUGS BUNNY WORLD Twick or Tweat! Fun crafts and games in a pumpkin field setting provide creative excitement for the entire family. It's pint-sized thrills for the pint-sized set in this Looney Tunes town designed for the little ones. Enjoy the numerous photo opportunities with Bugs Bunny and his Looney Tunes pals, and see what special treats they have in store. Complimentary trick or treat bags for all children ages 10 and under * TRICK OR TWEET The spooky feathered inhabitants of the Carrot Club Theater in High Sierra Territory appear during this 15-minute show. The theater's caretakers mystify the audience and ruffle the feathers of the performers. * STREET ENTERTAINERS & ACTIVITIES A lively group of street entertainers, magicians, jugglers, balloon sculptors and more roam the territory each Fright Fest day.
