This fall, Six Flags Fright Fest is bringing a number of the most iconic Hollywood horror franchises to life in new and exciting ways including Netflix’s Stranger Things.
Guests are invited to journey to the small town of Hawkins where students have created a Haunted House for the community. Although just a little innocent Halloween fun soon gets turned upside down! What starts as a fun school haunt with homemade decorations quickly turns into a deadly labyrinth of thrills and scares. Soon rifts sweep guests into a disorienting journey of terrifying locations while being hunted by the supernatural monsters that have long been tormenting the town. Guests will navigate the world of the Netflix smash hit coming face to face with demogorgons, demodogs, demobats, the “Mind Flayer” and finally Vecna himself!
The Stranger Things maze is now open at Six Flags Magic Mountain, Six Flags Over Texas, Six Flags Fiesta Texas and Six Flags Over Georgia before coming to Six Flags Great America and Six Flags Great Adventure later this month.
During this year’s Fright Fest guests will also have the option to be transported into the eerie realms of Netflix’s Army of the Dead, Warner Bros./New Line’s The Conjuring Universe, Legendary Entertainment’s Trick ‘r Treat, Lionsgate and Twisted Pictures’ SAW as well as an experience centering around Legendary and Netflix’s Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Specific mazes, opening dates and park hours vary by park…please check local websites for full details.
“If you are going to create immersive experiences for Halloween around top horror Hollywood franchises, ‘Stranger Things’ has to be high on your wish list and we understand the awesome responsibility that comes with it! My team and I are huge fans of the series so we’ve gone to great lengths to ensure our guests will be both delighted and absolutely terrified as they navigate Hawkins High and beyond.” – Edithann “EA” Ramey – Six Flags Chief Fright Officer
“Our goal was to bring this series to life like never before as guests are invited to step into Hawkins High School for a nostalgic and ominous upside-down experience. We’ve tried to capture the 80’s teen spirit that has become synonymous with the show, while leaning into the wild and wonderful brand of horror that fans have come to expect.” – Kaya Rose, Creative Lead, RWS Global
