Description

Six Flags Great Adventure amps up the scare factor with the all-new Fright Fest Extreme - presented by SNICKERS debuting on Friday the 13th. Weekends and select nights September 13 through November 3, guests can experience bone-chilling Halloween-themed attractions as new scares and classic shows take center stage at the World’s Ultimate Thrill Park. Guests who purchase a ticket to Fright Fest Extreme will step into a world where nightmarish creatures inspired by legendary horror brands come to life with Lionsgate and Twisted Pictures’ SAW franchise, Netflix’s Stranger Things and Army of the Dead, Warner Bros. Discovery’s The Conjuring, Annabelle and The Nun, Legendary Entertainment’s Trick ‘r Treat and Netflix & Legendary Entertainment’s Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2022)

Details of this year’s new horror branded attractions include:

●     The SAW Franchise - Celebrate the 20th anniversary of SAW with an all-new experience honoring the franchise’s legacy of terror by plunging guests into the depths of Jigsaw’s twisted mind. Guests will endure torturous trials and come face to face with some of John Kramer’s most diabolical contraptions before time runs out. 

●     The Conjuring Universe - Strap in for a tour of the Warrens’ most hair-raising and gruesome cases including those that inspired The Conjuring, Annabelle and The Nun. In each investigation, encounters with cursed artifacts make you the target of possession. 

●     Stranger Things – The students of Hawkins High decide to team up to create a little innocent Halloween fun for their community – but things quickly turn upside down and morph into something far darker. 

●     Army of the Dead - The City of Las Vegas is under lockdown following a recent viral outbreak and survivors must look for an escape while battling the undead. 

●     Trick ‘r Treat - Enter a dark and twisted candy trail nightmare on a jack-o-lantern-lit path of supernatural encounters which tap into your deepest fears. With Sam, the infamous Spirit of Halloween, as your guide, learn the rules of the spooky holiday before entering a world where tricks dominate treats.

 ●     Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2022)– Guests are “cast” as visitors to Harlow on the heels of the influencers set on revitalizing the town – but their arrival leads to a stunning and deadly secret being revealed.

 As the countdown to Halloween begins, guests are invited to prepare for the largest, scariest and most EXTREME Fright Fest ever with 9 haunted houses, 5 scare zones, and 4 exciting “monstertainment” shows.
