Six Flags Over Texas was one of the country’s first theme parks
to host a Halloween celebration beginning in 1976. As Halloween has
continued to gain popularity, the experience has evolved into what
it is today—the biggest and scariest Fright Fest ever. Being
recognized as the Best Theme Park Halloween Event in Texas
underscores Six Flags’ ongoing commitment to raise the bar and
maintain its status as the must-see experience for fear seekers
near and far.
“We are thrilled to be recognized by our fans for our efforts to
make Fright Fest the biggest, the best, and the scariest Halloween
event not only in Texas but in the entire Southwest United States,”
said Park President Steve Martindale. “To be selected by USA TODAY
readers is a great motivator for our team to continue offering the
most immersive and innovative Halloween experience in the state,
bar none.”
Six Flags Over Texas’ 2017 lineup is taking scare to a whole new
level featuring five petrifying haunted houses, seven creepy scare
zones, plus more than 200 zombies, ghouls and scare-actors roaming
throughout the 200-acre park. New this year—a bone-chilling scare
zone, Los Chupacabras, and an all-new show—Goblin Attack
Squad Gathering.
- Los Chupacabras: Once the night
creeps into this small, tranquil village, the legend of the half
dog, half-humanlike creature comes to life. These monsters prey on
anyone who dares to enter their territory.
- Goblin Attack Squad Gathering:
This high-energy show brings all of the sliding goblins together
for one frighteningly spectacular performance. But once they
surround their victims, there’s no turning back.
Six Flags Over Texas’ sister parks, Six Flags Magic Mountain,
located near Los Angeles, California, and Six Flags Fiesta Texas in
San Antonio, Texas, were also named among America’s best scream
parks, coming in first and 10th place respectively, making Six
Flags Fright Fest a coast-to-coast powerhouse. Fright Fest is
hosted by all 13 Six Flags theme parks.
