Six Flags Fright Fest is an institution for the Southern California Haunt goer. It’s been around forever and continues to strike fear into the hearts of anyone who chooses to attend. This year, for the 29th Haunt, it starts on select nights from September 10th all the way until October 31st. That’s 23 bone-chilling nights of fright for guests to enjoy.
Fright Fest boasts 14 Haunted Houses and Scare-Zones and at Six Flags Magic Mountain, the lights are going off on the roller coasters once again. During the day, BooFest is a family-friendly haunt during the day with a Trick Or Treat Trail in Bugs Bunny World.
Park President Don McCoy had this to say about the festivities:
We couldn’t be more excited to bring this legacy Halloween event back to the park. Six Flags Magic Mountain’s Fright Fest is upping the scare factor with an all-new haunted house, two new scare zones, an eerie new show, plus a new haunted happy hour and buffet. Spooky season is back in Los Angeles, and Fright Fest is the scariest event in town!
