30 Years of Six Flags Fright Fest Proves Theme
Park Fans are Dying for Chilling Thrills
Six Flags Entertainment Corporation (NYSE: SIX), the world’s
largest regional theme park company and the largest operator of
water parks in North America, launches the 30th season of Six Flags
Fright Fest with all-new haunted houses inspired by iconic horror
movies, The Conjuring, opening in New Jersey and California,
and Saw X, opening in 4 parks across the U.S. In
addition, fifteen Six Flags parks in the US, Canada and
Mexico are scaring guests with dozens of immersive experiences,
spooky mazes, live shows, themed food and beverage offerings and of
course, trick-or-treating.
“Six Flags Fright Fest is an important part of our passion to
thrill guests and exceed their expectations,” said Six Flags Chief
Marketing Officer Edithann Ramey. “The Fright Fest events taking
place at Six Flags parks across North America are scarier than
ever, but we’ve also included activities for the little ones at our
daytime Boo Fest event. What’s also great, is that it’s incredibly
affordable to visit during Fright Fest because the event is
included at most parks for season pass holders.”
Six Flags Fright Fest presented by SNICKERS® is ready to make
guests scream in horror or delight. Family-friendly events and
seasonal décor make the daylight hours a fun and special experience
for families. When dusk approaches, the ghouls come out, making it
an appropriate time for those who are easily scared to make their
exit. Select rides and attractions are open throughout the park and
nothing is scarier than tackling a monster coaster in the dark.
