Six Flags Fright Fest is giving Halloween Horror Nights a run for its money this year, with Variety previewing the impressive lineup of franchise-based haunted houses this morning.
Much like Universal Studios, Six Flags is going IP-heavy for Fright Fest 2024, with franchises including Saw, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and Trick ‘r Treat in the mix this year!
They’re joined by haunted mazes based on The Conjuring, Stranger Things, Zack Snyder’s Army of the Dead, and even the popular DC Comics zombie-horror series DCeased.
Variety details in their exclusive breakdown, “Fright Fest is set to open on September 7, 2024. Six Flags Great Adventure in New Jersey and Six Flags Magic Mountain in Los Angeles will have the bulk of the haunted house mazes, with Texas Chainsaw Massacre exclusive to Great Adventure and DCeased exclusive to Six Flags Mexico.
“The remaining Six Flags locations across the country will have a mix of the mazes.”
